Fencing jacket--and lame (electric jacket) if doing electric Fencing

Epee/Foil/Sabre (3 different types of weapons)

Face mask

Glove (dominant hand only)

For electric fencing, you need more--you would need a body cord, a mask cord (for Sabre only), and a lame (an electric jacket) (for Sabre and foil only), and an electric glove (for Sabre only)

When at a fencing tournament, a fencer must wear the proper equipment:

  • Mask
  • Jacket
  • Glove
  • Underarm/Chest Protector
  • Foil/Epee/Sabre
  • Body Cord
  • Electric Vest/Lame (Only Foil or Sabre)
  • Mask Cord (Only Sabre)
  • Electric Cuff (Only Sabre)
By way of dress, a fencer must wear:
  • Knickers
  • Socks that come up to the knickers
  • Shoes
A cup for men. Yes, 'that area' is a legal target in both epee and foil. If you don't wear a cup, then don't whine about it if you get hit there.

You need all the equipment. You need:

1) a plaster (plastron)

2) a jacket (you have to also find out which hand you will use in order to get the right jacket)

3) a glove (for the hand that holds your weapon)

4) a weapon (it depends which one you choose, there are sabers, epee's and foils)

5) a mask

6) if you are a woman, you need a chest protector (if you are stabbed in the chest, you can get seriously injured with out one)

It depends on what weapon you're fencing, and whether you're fencing dry or electrics. Typically when fencing dry, you wear a jacket, mask, glove, chest protector, underarm protector, and knickers, for any weapon. When fencing electrics, as you would in a tournament, you would add to that a body cord and a lame for foil and saber, or just a body cord for epee. The saber lame has full sleeves, while the foil lame is like a vest. In saber, you also have an electric mask and mask clip.

Well it depends on which sword you practice. There is foil, sabre, and epee. The first few step of dressing for all the types are the same. First you have the knickers(fencing pants), fencing socks, and your fencing sneakers. Then you put on the plastic chest protector, the underarm protecter, and then the jacket. Now you stop here if you are an epeeist. If you are a saberist or foilist, you should put on your electric cord before your jacket, and then put on your lamay. Now, put on your glove. Then you should attach one end of the cord to your sword through your glove. Now you stop here if you are a foilist. If you are a saberist, you go on to put on your mask cord.
