The first thing that one should have is a pair of white knee-length pants called breeches, and a pair of knee socks (no skin should be shown on the legs).

Next is the plastic chest protector; then the plastron: the underarm protector, which is the one-sleeved white jacket.

Next is the bodycord, which is held in the hand wearing a glove.

Next is the white long-sleeved jacket, just called a jacket. Finally there is the conductive silver lamé, which identifies the target area. It is sleeveless for a foilist and long-sleeved on a saberist; epéeists do not wear lamés.

Finally, there is the weapon. There are three different choices: a foil, which has a smaller handle; epée, which has a larger handle and a larger target area; and a saber, which has the largest handle and a target area of the upper torso.

Hope this helps!
