jesschan:

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.

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…

Hi! I need to buy fencing equipment for my DS.


Can someone advise where i can buy the equipment from? My DS has checked the Leon Paul website and it cost a bomb to purchase the equipment. :?:

Thanks!

Hi Herbie,

Fencing equipment is expensive. The entire set inclusive of foil, wires, lame, plastron, breeches, chest protector, mask, shoes and equipment bag can cost $2000 if not more… In Singapore, Z Fencing School sells them. I note that the prices online from overseas websites are not any cheaper.
