Summary: Good buy for beginnerJanuary 31st, 2004
(note: I'm assuming this is the ACG model that's purple.)
Thumb, index, middle, and ring finger were cut short by the glove's cloth. The stiches inside were humongous and were slightly uncomfortable.The length of the glove's pinky finger was at least half a cm off, and that got annoying. However, it may just be because my fingers aren't part of their glove standard.
In any case, this is a very good deal for beginners who want the safe padding and the double layer on the half fingers. It's good for intermediates who are new to BG, and want to save money.
I have yet to see the stitching become undone because I'm not a rigorous fencer.However, I have noticed that BG has a tendency to cheat stitches (at least on my nylon jacket) and their "stictch-offs" ( the beginnings and ends of a seam/stitch line) aren't there.
