Desant brand fencing competition wear Descente Co., Ltd. has developed fencing competition wear under the Descente brand. This wear is the first Japanese-made wear that has been approved by the International Fencing Federation and will be supplied to Japanese players in the future. Until now, fencing competition wear was mainly made overseas and there was no Japanese-style wear, and there were quality issues such as easy to shrink when washed. In order to solve these problems, we developed new fencing competition wear that matches the shape of Japanese athletes by making full use of original fabric development and pattern design know-how that we are good at. Development of original domestic fabrics that retain strength but are resistant to shrinking in collaboration with Toyobo STC Co., Ltd. (Head office: Osaka, Osaka Prefecture, President: Shigeo Nishiyama) Succeeded. Utilizing the knowledge cultivated in sportswear development so far, our research and development A new pattern for fencing competition wear was created at the base “DISC (DESCENTE INNOVATION STUDIO COMPLEX) OSAKA”. With a three-dimensional pattern with the shoulders raised and the knees bent, the shape is easy to follow the movement of the fencing both vertically. Our jacket has the advantage of ease of movement for quick operation, while maintaining strength for safety, such as easy to raise arms by eliminating the side switch and using one piece of fabric. Realized by pattern design and fabric development. Made in Japan clothing that is sewn one by one at our own factory in Japan. We have also developed fencing-specific socks that are effective for improving performance. In order to suppress slipping of the foot in the shoe and to move quickly even in 0.01 seconds, we verified the grip material of the sole in various shapes, areas and positions, The optimal combination for fencing operation was adopted. Going forward, we will continue to analyze and verify fencing motion for further improvements, support athletes to achieve their best performance, and strive to strengthen their ability to create things.
