  1. Agreed, I'm not usually a fan of the all-black look, but these pull it off perfectly. Very uh.. dope. Or rad, sick, fly, or whatever lingo the kids are using these days.
  2. Love them. The weight and mobility is far better than the Eastons. Also, because I'm a fatass, the Eastons would never stay up without suspenders, and even then I was constantly pulling them up. The Bauers hug the belly instead of trying to slip below it. I could honestly see myself wearing these without suspenders. The ONLY issue is the soft tailbone protection. The Eastons had hard plastic, and then Bauers are just a dense foam. Not a big deal, except that more than once last game I'd hop over the boards (which for me is more of a "get the legs over and then slide off the top" than an actual jump...), and the tailbone protector would pull up and I'd have to play like that until I got a chance to get my hand down the back of my pants to fix it. I might see if I can get them modded with a harder plastic tailbone protector.
  3. I forgot to post in here... in February after I passed my JNCIE, I rewarded myself by trading in my 2008 BMW 135i for.... a 2012 BMW 135i... This is the old one. The new one looks pretty much the same, on the outside. The only mod I have any intention of doing is replacing the ugly yellow halo LEDs with 5000K white, the same color as the light strip along the top of the headlight (that isn't in the photo above - they didn't have the strip in 2008). So it will look like this: rather than this: (notice how yellow the halos are compared the horizontal strip?)
  4. SO excited to try out my new pants tonight! Replacing Easton EQ30s with:
  5. Ah, very cool. Thanks for the info ;)
  6. I'm out of the loop - what makes them special?
  7. Are those CCM CL's the ones that were on eBay a few days ago? Almost got them, but couldn't justify the price.
  8. Booyeah, new bucket!
  9. Make sure you post your thoughts on the cuff. I'm not able to use mine, because the cuff interferes with my elbow pads :(
  10. If you think those are purple, you need your screen re-calibrated.
  11. Those tongues are HUGE! lol I love those Vapor shirts, I just started wearing one and absolutely love it.
  12. Tempted to try the CCM CL pants
  13. Well, at least they'll be barely worn in...
  14. VERY tempted to order pant shells (that fit over pants) in those colors. They're pricey though.
  15. Mother of god... Where on earth did you find those?? edit: nm, those are penguins 3rds
  16. It's only the white bit of it (that's actually a big loop). I'm going to give them a while and see if that bit softens up a bit. If not, I'll either sell the gloves or cut off the cuff. I love the glove otherwise though! Kind of ironic that the Projekt gloves don't fit well with the Projekt elbows...
  17. Tried them in a game tonight. Very small range of motion. The cuffs really interfered with my elbow pads (also Projekt). The up/down range of motion while the hand is in the "handshake" position is virtually none. I love the feel otherwise, but I'm not sure if I can get used to this cuff :(
  18. haha likely nothing ;) The black frame they're in is starting to disintegrate, so I'm planning on taking them all out and putting them in real frames. Should look great in the mancave :)
  19. I have that Potvin photo, and also the Gilmour and Clark ones that went as part of the set :)
  20. I honestly didn't notice anything with the thumb. Agree with althoma 100% about the cuff though. It's REALLY tight. I had to move from Supreme (which I loved) to the Vapor because I couldn't find Supreme in this color scheme. These Projekt's actually feel quite a bit tighter than the Supremes (which is a good thing, I hate floppy gloves. I used a pair of Bauer 4-Rolls for one game before ditching them). Looking forward to Sunday :D
  21. Yea I don't mind the raised parts so much. Didn't like them the first time i saw them but now I dont mind. I didn't really notice anything odd about the thumb at all.. should I have? The only thing "odd" about them is how tight they are, especially the cuff. But that's what I was looking for :)
  22. FINALLY got my new mitts!
  23. No doubt! Save some for the rest of us ;)
