Very nice jersey. My favorite lightning jersey style. The new jersey just pales in comparison.

I don't work in a LHS, but i went to sportchek today and was near the skates section. The employee was trying to sell skates to this woman buying it for her husband. He told her straight up Bauers can not be baked and only Reeboks could be. Then she asked about the X15s and One60s because she said her husband had narrower feet. She wanted to know which one was better. The guy then states that the One60s are for forwards and the X15s are for defensemen because they provided more ankle support. And of course, he tries to sell the x15s for $150. She goes, well i do want him to have more ankle support so i'll take those (X15s). The One60s were only $20 more. I wanted to say something... but didn't want to intrude.

Thats what i wondered too. But i purchased it at a consignment store that had 15' listed. /shrug. I compared them to my x80s which i believe are 14" and they are the same size. However, where the x80s fit my finger length perfectly, the fingers on the PPF are a tad larger. You may be correct on all accounts, i was just going by the tag, which may also be wrong. But researching it now, you are correct. They are 14. Thankfully, b/c 15s usually engulf my arm.

Found another great deal! Black 15' Eagle PPFs for $40. Used, but look at the condition of these.. Beauts!

Indeed i am.. Are you the guy i bought them from?? That would be some coincidence.

Nah, no ebay for me. We have a consignment store nearby that usually takes things in decent shape. It's a hit or miss kind of store, but i certainly found some great items - the jersey, socks, and tacklas. The Eagle gloves were found on Craigslist - original palms in tact, not even near ripping or anything, but broken in. I also bought Bauer lightspeed shoulders from the guy for $30. He really took good care of his gear so i didn't haggle.

Lol i don't think its so bad, if i don't have a shell. I got it because it has 77 nicely stitched on the back. Its just my practice/drop-in gear so i figured, i'm never going to get this kind of price for even practice gear at my LHS.

Just some sweet deals i got recently. $20 for both... a bit colorful though. $20 for Eagle x80s. Palms in tact and in goood condition. $32 for Tackla 5000 Air My splurge... Pro Bullys
