  1. Packing them in nice and tight.
  2. Girlfriends who are unjustifiably paranoid.
  3. I've been skating on a new pair of 7ks for the past couple weeks...absolutely love them. They are surprisingly light, sturdy, and comfortable. Very happy with the performance and fit thus far.
  4. That's just not fair.
  5. So true, I just found this out the hard way a couple weeks ago.
  6. Wow, I get more excited for this everyday!
  7. You guys cleaned up at the Sharks sale huh? Awesome grabs.
  8. I can vent about that league as well JTully. I was going to play, but I have class Tuesday and Thursday 5-8 for the summer semester. Haven't been able to find any quality leagues this summer because of my damn schedule.
  9. Very upset with the riots in Vancouver tonight. Not because it overshadows the amazing 2011 playoffs and the Bruins first win in 30+ years, but because of the extreme damage to the city and widespread injuries to many innocent bystanders. The destruction and looting are staining the reputation of a beautiful city and it just upsets me to see people act like barbarians.
  10. Beautiful mitts niXon!
  11. Now that is a haul...damn.
  12. Had seven per side with two goalies last night...hell of a workout.
  13. Haha!! You should charge them if they ask!
  14. How much they selling the pro stocks for? I was just up there on Saturday, but didn't browse the sticks.
  15. Where did you pick that up from?
  16. Nope, my experience comes from actual ice time with each glove.
  17. I take it personally when you tell me I am wrong about my personal experience with a glove. I secede to your overwhelming knowledge of how my hands fit these gloves. I don't know what IW has for a description on their page but it's pretty common knowledge that the Creepers are cut to the contour of the hand holding a stick. And I would be sure as hell to read tons of reviews and make sure I tried each glove on before I even considered the idea of ordering a $200 custom pair of gloves. If anything, my explanation should be a sign that you need to try each glove on before you buy because we clearly have opposing opinions of fit.
  18. I offered to continue the conversation in PMs to stop clogging up this thread with a useless debate over the fitting of the glove. I said the Creepers were made to fit the contour of the hand which is true. With this design they fit differently than the Franchises and are much cozier to the hand as I said. You can continue to tell me that I'm wrong as much as you would like, but I have worn both gloves and know how they fit my hands.
  19. Very true, which is why I did not compare them to the Hitman or the X:60. As I said, in my experience the Creepers fit tighter to the hand than the Franchises. The Franchises have a boxy feel and are quite loose around the wrist. The Creepers are much cozier to the hand and are, as you said, also loose around the wrist. I said the Creepers fit tighter than the Franchises, which in my case is 100% true. We can agree to disagree on our personal opinions of fit and can continue the discussion in PMs if you would like. As I said in my original post, you need to try on each pair to determine which fit you find most comfortable and to find your personal preference.
  20. In my experience, the Creepers fit my hands tighter than the Franchises. Not "much" tighter...that's a typo, my mistake. Of course, as with every piece of equipment, your body part size as well as preference and previous experiences play into your impressions of the equipment.
  21. Well the fit depends on a couple things. What model Warriors are you looking at? The Franchise and the Creepers fit differently. The Franchise gloves have been described as fitting more box-like and having a traditional fit. The Creepers fit much tighter to the hand - they are designed to fit the contour of your hand. You can also order the Franchises in a narrow fit which will have a tighter fit to your hand. The best advice is to try them on if you can get your hands on each to test the fit and find your preference.
