Let’s start wearing fencing clothes on the street!!! Who is with me???

The article utilizes athletes Fabrice Jeannet of France and Matteo Tagliariol of Italy and a model to contrast the real competitive outfits to the clothing line.

The 2-page spread reads: (something like this via Igoogle translator)
And the most noble of all sports as loyal and respectful of the opponent’s own…

 The etymology of the word Italian fencing brings with it the meaning of discipline…

connected to the function of the sword as a means not born to hit, but to defend and to his nickname of weapon white

 

Alright people, I expect to see everyone wearing fencing outfits around town in the near future!
