The fencing attire is so thick, very difficult to dry if not put in washing machine. I used to handwash it initially, then I gave up and machine wash the breeches, jacket and plastron using \"delicate\" cycle.

Be careful with the breeches. My maid practically destroyed the tight elastic bands at the ankles with her rough handling. Ouch to my wallet.

Thanks for the advise. i will let my wife know about it.
BTW, i believe that Singapore Sport School also has a Fencing Academy.
For all those young Fencers out there who excel in the sport, maybe you can give the Sport School a try for your Secondary Educations.

i have advised my wife regarding the washing of the Fencing Uniform. One problem solve and another arise, can the uniform be used in a drier?

:?:
With the raining days, it takes years to totally dry them.

I don’t use dryer at home, so I am not sure but I reckon some material will shrink or go out of shape if you use dryer…
