V. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

- Q: Is this mask officially certified by FIE? Can it be used in Olympic epee competitions?

A: Yes, this mask has obtained official FIE certification, fully meeting the equipment requirements of Olympic epee competitions and all other international FIE-certified epee events, and can be used with confidence.

- Q: What is the advantage of the 1600NW bib compared to ordinary bibs for epee fencing?

A: The 1600NW bib has a higher protection level, which can withstand a puncture force of over 1600 Newtons, while ordinary bibs usually have a lower protection level (e.g., 350NW). Epee fencing has full-body target and strong impact during confrontation; the 1600NW bib can provide more reliable neck protection and reduce injury risks.

- Q: How to maintain the stainless steel mesh of the epee mask?

A: After use, wipe the surface of the stainless steel mesh with a dry cloth to remove sweat and dust; avoid using water to rinse the mesh directly. If there is stubborn dirt, use a slightly damp soft cloth to wipe gently, and then dry it in a well-ventilated place. Store it in a dry and cool environment to avoid moisture and rust.

- Q: If my face circumference is between two sizes, which one should I choose?

A: If your face circumference is between two sizes (e.g., 55cm, between SM 50-51cm and SL 53-54cm), it is recommended to choose the larger size. The mask is equipped with an adjustable headband and chin strap, which can be fine-tuned to achieve a snug fit. Choosing a larger size can also avoid discomfort caused by tightness and leave room for wearing a hat or thick lining in cold environments, without affecting epee movement flexibility.

- Q: Is the inner lining of the mask replaceable?

A: Yes, the inner lining is detachable and replaceable. We provide matching replacement liners. After long-term use, if the liner is worn, deformed, or has an odor that is difficult to remove, you can purchase a replacement liner separately to extend the service life of the mask.
