Interesting thread. I have a couple orders from Tron in the past for outdoor roller pucks and just recently picked up a pair of their Tron 5000 gloves. I wanted some leather gloves, as the leather outer lasts much longer to falling on concrete during outdoor play. Unfortunately it seems all new models are only coming out in mesh, which gets absolutely destroyed. After a few falls the mesh gets completely ripped and I’ll start losing pads on top of the fingers. Tron had a $50 one-day sale on the 5000 model, and I was pretty impressed with the quality after they were delivered. Materials felt good and palm is super soft. Only used them once, but after a few tumbles on the concrete, the exterior is holding up nicely. They are a traditional fit (which I like) but my only gripe is these are super wide. Would probably work fine if you want an old-time style glove, but I think I might pick up their T-10 model next, as I hear they are a little more narrow. I also use their Elite composite shaft for outdoor roller play, and it has held up very well to a season of playing in two leage and a good number pick up games. Very light, no grip, and hasn't shattered... no complaints. Glad I found this thread about the one-piece sticks. I was on the fence about buying some for ice play, but I think I'll continue to go with discounted top-level twigs.
