Equipment for Beginners
After you've taken classes for a couple months and you know you would like to continue fencing, it's time to start thinking about buying your own equipment. Having your own jacket, mask and glove means you know it will fit. And using the same weapon every time will help improve your technique as you get used to the feel of your blade.

The basic beginner uniform includes an underarm protector, jacket, mask, and glove. We offer this package at a special discount, $119.98 including sales tax.

Additional items you may consider for practice include:

  • Chest protector (required for women and girls, optional for men and boys)
  • Practice foil
  • Bag to carry everything in

You can use an electric foil for practice if you want, although the electric foil is more expensive and will require more frequent maintenance. When you're ready to start competition, you need some additional items:

  • At least 2 electric weapons
  • At least 2 body cords
  • A lamé (foil only)
  • Fencing pants (knickers)

If you buy additional items with a beginner set, or a complete set of electric equipment, we offer a 15% discount.
