I believe you might be referring to some of the metalic colors in the macho warrior line.

 

Also take a look at a copy of Black Belt magazine. Look through the ads. Many companies now make sparring gear in gold and silver.

yes; metalic sparring equipment sounds like an increase in injuries....i have to agree with SAI, perhaps it's the colors you want....... :nod:

If you think you can't, then you must. If you must, you will.

i only mention injuries due to the fact that i would hate to kick a mask like the one's used by baseball catchers or have some one block my kick with an iron forearm brace on........or is that why you want it?(lol)......... :nod:

 

oh and congrat on that shiny new green belt, lovely.

My first mask was a closed chin mask (all of our kids used to have to wear the closed chin ones). With my goggles I was always steamed up (the lenses) and could not see a thing. I got another more open helmet and was much happier.

 

The other thing with the closed chin helmet was it did restrict visibility even before my lenses fogged up.

 

Actually I think the color of sparring gear does make a difference. In some ways it is nice to express individuality. But, I think my white handpads are harder to pick up against my white gi.

My school does sell equipment and bags, of course. Like u said it was an individual preferance.

 

I do like your point on the white hand pads tho, had never thought of that. I might try it. Do you also wear white kicks?

If you think you can't, then you must. If you must, you will.
