Equip Your Competitive Edge
In the world of fencing, every detail matters — from your weapon to your footwork, down to the very gear you wear. For fencers at every level, choosing the right fencing knickers (also referred to as fencing pants) is about more than just meeting regulations; it’s about optimizing performance, comfort, and safety on the strip. At Prieur USA, we take pride in creating high-quality fencing equipment that helps athletes perform at their best. In this article, we’ll explore the 5 key features that make Prieur USA fencing knickers the best choice for competitors, coaches, and clubs.

Why Choosing the Right Fencing Knickers Matters
Fencing is a physically demanding sport that requires agility, flexibility, and quick bursts of motion. The right fencing pants can offer protection from hits, enhance comfort during long bouts, and keep you compliant with tournament rules. The wrong pair, on the other hand, can restrict movement or compromise safety.
The Prieur USA Advantage: What Sets Our Fencing Knickers Apart
1. Superior Materials for Maximum Protection and Comfort
At Prieur USA, our fencing knickers are crafted using advanced textiles that provide an optimal combination of toughness and breathability. The double-layered cotton-polyester blend meets the stringent FIE safety standards, offering:
- Exceptional puncture resistance to safeguard against weapon strikes
- Moisture-wicking properties for comfort during extended use
- Lightweight feel that never restricts your footwork or lunges
We meticulously select each fabric for its ability to endure the rigors of both training and competition, providing fencers peace of mind without sacrificing agility.
2. Premium Ergonomic Design for Freedom of Movement
Mobility is crucial in fencing. Prieur USA fencing knickers feature an ergonomic, athletic cut designed for fluid movement. Key benefits include:
- Articulated knees for deep lunges and fast retreats
- Elastic waistbands and adjustable straps to fit every body shape
- Tapered legs that stay securely in place inside your socks
This design ensures that our fencing pants move with you — not against you — letting you focus on strategy and execution, not on tugging at your gear.
3. Reinforced Stitching and Durability Built to Last
Investing in fencing equipment shouldn’t mean sacrificing longevity. Our fencing knickers are constructed with:
- Heavy-duty stitching at stress points
