Sabre Lames

The lame is a garment worn over the jacket that covers the valid target area in foil or saber (�p�e does not require a lame since everything is considered valid target). Foil lames need only cover the torso and as such are sleeveless. The arms are valid target for saber so saber lames have sleeves. Saber lames also have a small tab near the collar where the head cord can connect.

Lames are made of special fabrics that contain metallic fibers, such as copper, nickle or stainless steel, or of special conductive fibers. A "waterproof" liner on the inside (usually nylon although some early lames actually used plastic) helps to minimize the risk of electrical shorts between the lame and a sweat-saturated jacket.

For more information on how to take care of your foil or sabre lame, please refer to our article: The Care and Feeding of a New Lame.
