Leon Paul Review of 2018
2018 has been yet another challenging and rewarding year for Leon Paul. The customer service and operations teams have smashed their own previous best performance of 2017, as they strive to offer our customers unrivalled levels of service and performance within our industry. We have had our business management system in place for a year now and this has enabled us to offer excellent real-time information on stock availability and order processing to our customers. This includes online information about whether the stock is available, out of stock, or discontinued. We are dispatching orders on the day of receipt in over 95% of cases. We are working hard with our suppliers to ensure that our stock holding is the best it can be and we are now holding more lines than ever before. The launch of our clearance section on the website enables you to snap up a bargain when you want one.
Our wireless fencing system, which was launched last year goes from strength to strength. We now have a fully working 3 weapon system and we are working on an improved FIE system for next year.
In 2019 lookout for new products being launched. Including a new clothing range and an industry leading bodywire.
Once again, we would like to thank you, our customers, for your support and wish you all a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year.

FIE FASHION SHOW IN PARIS
Uniforms that could inspire new communities to take up fencing at THE event of the year, the FIE 105th anniversary gala in Paris. Talk about a showstopper.
LED PISTE - THE FUTURE OF FENCING IS HERE
Another Leon Paul idea that stole the show at the FIE Gala: the updated version of our LED piste in real size. Ready for all big fencing events now.
PRODUCT RELEASES AND INNOVATIONS
Besides huge standout projects we’ve also been working on products to make your everyday fencing life better, from a new blade to a comfortable all rounder shoe or the ideal on-the-go bag. Because there’s a lot more to fencing than the high-level sport.
NEW & BETTER PRODUCT VIDEOS
An informed customer is our priority. That’s why we’ve completely overhauled our product videos, in order to offer you the best all-at-one-glance experience when shopping our products.
#FIEUpdate2018
2018 saw some of the biggest changes in equipment rules so far. Whether it was a completely new product or new requirements for mask fastening systems, we were there for you. Both with regular blog updates, social posts and with very hands-on-assistance (700+ masks retrofitted)
LEON PAUL GLOBAL PLAYER
From Toronto to Tokyo, the Leon Paul Family is growing! The latest additions to our portfolio of country pages: Leon Paul Canada, active since October 2018, and Leon Paul Japan, whose release is imminent.
LED SABRE - A NEW TAKE ON FENCING
We want to expand more than just geographically; we strive to grow our entire sport! That’s why we’re always keen on discovering new approaches to fencing and generally combat sports, like the emerging art of LED sabre fighting.
#Wearitpink
Fencing has strong communities, which can help raise awareness about more generic concerns. That’s why we decided to #wearitpink this October and support Breast Cancer now, the UK’s largest breast cancer charity.
BRITISHNESS
You can’t be a leading fencing manufacturer and do everything we’ve done this year without knowing where you and your products come from. That’s why we cherish our London roots and factory! and are proud to bring quality made in Britain to you.
