Don't buy anything before your first session — your club lends you everything. When you're ready to get your own, here's what to buy and in what order.
Your own glove is the first thing most fencers buy — it's personal kit. Breeches and long socks follow.
Your own mask fits better and lasts years. A jacket and underplastron complete your protective kit.
Your own weapon(s), bodywires and — for foil and sabre — a lamé for electric scoring. Ask your coach before buying; grip and blade choices matter.
