“Unibody 800N”

DESIGNED FOR THE SAFETY OF Foil/Epee FENCERS Sizes: 7 to 10,5
1. “UNIBODY” – NEW AND EXCLUSIVE “ALL-IN-ONE” DESIGN, NO SEAMS, WITH SEPARATE THUMB, REINFORCED BACK AND SLEEVE. THIS INCREASES SAFETY AS THE BLADE CAN “SLIDE” OVER THE SURFACE WITHOUT MEETING ANY IMPEDIMENTS. THE HIGH LEVEL OF WRIST MOBILITY ENABLES FLUIDITY IN MOVEMENT WITHOUT CONSTRICTION.

2. “DYNEEMA 800N” – WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE INTERNAL SIDE, THAT IS IN CONTACT WITH THE GRIP, THE GLOVE IS ENTIRELY MADE WITH CUT-PROOF ELASTIC MATERIAL. THANKS TO THE REDUCED THICKNESS, A HIGH LEVEL OF COMFORT AND BREATHABILITY IS GUARANTEED.

3. “PRE-CURVED” – THE ANATOMICAL SHAPE OF THE GLOVE FOLLOWS THE NATURAL CURVE OF THE HAND WHEN IT GRIPS THE WEAPON. THIS ENABLES A SAFER GRIP, REDUCING HAND FATIGUE AND THE INSURGENCE OF UNNATURAL CREASES IN THE MATERIAL THAT ARE UNCOMFORTABLE AND DANGEROUS.

4. “SYNTHETIC LEATHER” – TO ENSURE A GOOD LEVEL OF SENSITIVITY, THE PALM AND THE LOWER SIDE OF FINGERS, I.E. THE AREAS THAT COME INTO CONTACT WITH THE GRIP, ARE IN STRETCH SYNTHETIC ALCANTARA LEATHER, WITH DOUBLE REINFORCEMENTS ON THE 3 FINGERS THAT GET MOST WEAR.

5. “SAFETY-PLEAT” – NEW ADJUSTABLE SYSTEM FOR THE SLEEVE, WITH PROTECTED VELCRO® CLOSURE. THE SAFETY PLEAT BEHIND THE CLOSURE AVOIDS ACCIDENTAL PENETRATION OF THE BLADE SHOULD THE CLOSURE OPEN. BEFORE PUTTING ON THE GLOVE, THE BODYCORD IS INSERTED THROUGH THE SPECIAL GAP IN THE SLEEVE, WHICH IS THEN TIGHTENED AND FIXED WITH THE VELCRO®.

6. “TRADITIONAL CUT” – THE 800N MATERIAL IS PUNCH CUT TO KEEP THE INSIDE OF SEAMS AS SOFT AS POSSIBLE. (LASER CUTTING HAS BEEN DEMONSTRATED TO BURN THE MATERIAL THUS PRODUCING A HARD EDGE THAT HAS AN ABRASIVE EFFECT ON THE FINGERS).

7. “PADDED” – INTERNAL PADDING FOR PROTECTION OF THE PARTS SUBJECT TO BLOWS FROM OPPONENT’S BLADE.

8. “REINFORCED SEAMS” – A SPECIAL POLYESTER “TERKING®” YARN IS USED FOR THE SEAMS. THIS YARN HAS VERY HIGH RESISTANCE TO RUPTURE. IT IS THE SAME YARN THAT WE USE TO MAKE OUR FIE CLOTHING.

9. “ELECTRIC CUFF” – WE HAVE DECIDED TO KEEP THIS SEPARATE FROM THE MAIN GLOVE SO AS NOT TO JEOPARDISE THE ELECTRIC INSULATION FROM THE GLOVE • UNLESS SEPARATE, SHOULD THE GLOVE BECOME DAMP, THROUGH EXCESSIVE LEVELS OF SWEAT, THIS COULD SIGNAL AS A VALID HIT • IN ADDITION, THE WEARING OUT OF ONE OF THE TWO PIECES DOES NOT PREVENT THE USE OF THE PART THAT IS STILL IN GOOD ORDER, THUS ENABLING CHEAPER REPLACEMENTS.

10. ”WASHABLE” BY HAND AT 30°. WE ADVISE THAT THE GLOVE SLEEVE IS CLOSED BEFORE WASHING.

11. ”FIE APPROVED” – TESTED AT THE FIE SEMI LAB IN ROME.

12. ”PATENT” – REQUESTED BUT PENDING.

13. “MADE and DESIGNED IN ITALY” by NEGRINI Fencing
