About Cabrillo |
The Cabrillo Pro
Shop Our
Pro Shop is an outlet for the oldest distributor and maker of fencing
equipment in the United States, American Fencers Supply (AFS) of San
Francisco. Owned by a USFA National Armorer and managed by a Fencing Master,
customers can depend on getting equipment and clothing of the highest quality.
AFS has developed its own proprietary designs for jackets, pants, and
electric vests & jackets, and has striven to keep their entire operation
within the U.S.A. Their textiles are
grown in the Carolinas and woven by mills there, and then cut and stitched
together in California. The stainless steel thread required for fencing lames
is not made in this country, but AFS obtains theirs from the same German
manufacturer who supplies both Uhlmann and AllStar, and sews that to a domestically-produced
lining made by their plant in Marin County. Whether
the product is manufactured domestically or imported, AFS applies stringent
quality-controls on it before they ship it to a customer. They are so
confident of their procedures that they are the only fencing supplier in the
world who offers a warranty on each and every AFS lame they sell. The
Cabrillo Pro Shop operates as a catalog store: customers can inspect samples
of the products they are interested in and be sized by our experienced staff,
if necessary. Orders placed with us by Monday evening will be ready for
pick-up on the following Thursday. While our prices reflect AFS catalog
prices, our customers get the benefit of lower shipping and handling costs
thanks to our bulk ordering. Moreover, if for any reason a product must be
returned, just bring it to us and we take care of the rest. |
