Leon Paul / Hi-Tec Scimitar Fencing Shoe
The Scimitars are cooler and stronger than even the great Blades fencing shoe.
Here are some quotes from the
Fencing Equipment Product Reviews
"These shoes are very light and breathable. The light weight gives a very close feel to the strip. The tread pattern and sole material gives very good grip on wood or metal surfaces and allow for very fast direction changes. If you do fence on a metal piste, the extra protection of the expanded "abrasion zone" will increase the life of the shoe. Also, the fact that this area is a hardened synthetic and not leather means you can wear the shoes outside from the salle to the car without worrying about them getting wet and dissolving on you."
Please note that because these are a European shoe there is no difference between Mens and Womens sizing these shoes are therefore all sold in US Mens sizes. Sorry for any inconvenience or confusion that this causes.
SIZING is not the same as adidas fencing shoes, which run very narrow, these shoes are a normal width and sizing should be equivalent to a normal court shoe or sneaker.
