Most of my gear was purchased in 2002 and hasn't been replaced. I took a few years off, so my stuff doesn't look or feel as old as it actually is.
Helmet: CCM
Shoulder Pads: Franklin THT Pro. Big and bulky. Would like to replace these eventually.
Shin Pads: Jofa 8090 16". Love 'em!
Elbow Pads: Itech Matrix EP455. They are nice and light with ok protection, but they slide down my arms when I take slappers, even when I clear tape over the straps. I don't like these much. Going to replace them soon.
Gloves: Vapor XX 14". I went a little too small when I bought these. I'll get 14.5" next time. Other than size, no complaints.
Pants: Franklin WHP 7860. Not much protection above the tightening strap. Will replace when I have the cash or when I start to play more competitively.
Sticks: Mission M-1 (100 flex, Cole curve); recently broke my trusty old Easton Synergy (silver, 100 flex, Shanahan curve)... looking to replace, maybe with RBZ 60
Skates: Vapor 7.0 (just replaced my Supreme 7000s and got a great deal)
