Hey there — welcome to The Modern Fencer, a proudly Australian-owned and operated store built by fencers, for fencers.

We started this brand because, let’s face it, fencing gear and merch has been stuck in the dark ages. We wanted to give athletes and sword sport lovers a way to show off their passion with style — whether you’re in the club, on the piste, or out in the real world.

To bring you the highest quality merch possible, we partner with a global network of ethical print providers, which allows us to print orders close to where our customers live. Depending on your location, your item may be printed in Australia, the United States, Canada, Spain, or the UK. Working with a network of trusted printing facilities helps us reduce shipping times, shrink our environmental footprint, and support ethical, transparent production.

We also take sourcing seriously. The vast majority of our apparel is printed on ethically manufactured garments made from 100% cotton — many from premium suppliers like AS Colour, Bella+Canvas, and Stanley/Stella. These are higher quality garments designed to last longer, feel better, and age beautifully. They also don’t leach microplastics into your skin when you sweat — a common issue with cheaper polyester blends.

We’re a tight-knit team doing this for real. No bots. No scams. No excuses. If something’s not right with your order, talk to us. We’ll make it right.

Thank you for supporting a niche sport, an independent business, and a community that deserves better. Here’s to making fencing visible — one shirt, one hoodie, one notebook at a time.
