  1. Mission M-1 Pro Keep in mind, I am 5'8", 166 lbs. Fit- I have small hands with not-so-skinny fingers. Putting the gloves on for the first time was like test driving a cadillac, but during regular usage they proved to be looser than I'd like. So much so, that they fell right off of my hands during a scrum one time. A little custom addition of some tape around the fingers fixed that problem though. They were a fair bit looser than the He550's I had before. The palms are sweet. No crust, so strech, and not overly hot. (loose(on me)) 8/10 Protection- Dual denisty foams, plastic inserts; the only things these gloves can't protect me from are internal hand injuries and shame. 9.5/10 Weight- Not a big factor, but I've had much heavier gloves that were much less protective before. 8.5/10 Durability- I've taken these gloves out for outdoor RH. The only noticeable wear on these gloves is on the leather part between the index finger and the thumb where the friction between glove and shaft is. I "candy-stripe" my sticks for that homemade grip on the shaft and that adds to the wear in that area. (9.5/10) Intangibles- This is the first pair of gloves that I decided to splurge on and I am not in the least bit in remorse. Conclusion- Aside from them being loose on me because of my lack of girth on my hands, I would have no complaints and more than one pair. If I didn't have these gloves, I'd be jealous of whoever did.
  2. Quick question: Which chassis would you choose between the Mission Mg vs. the Red Star Alloy?
