Equipment recommendations from German Fencing Gear

Jens and Leticia of German Fencing Gear put together a guide with some recommendations for fencing gear — shown in that graphic above, download a PDF here.

You can also browse their site and choose your gear there. If you have any questions about sizing or anything else, or want other recommendations, send Jens an email.

Please ensure your USA Fencing membership is current

Please make sure that your membership at usafencing.org is current — the club’s insurance requires that every fencer is a USA Fencing member, all that’s required is an Access Membership to fence at the club and at club competitions.
