    Does anyone have any hands-on experience with the CCM Next protective line? Looks like decent value and without some of the bells and whistles that might annoy old school protective fans.

    For what it's worth, I also had arch pain when I first tried SuperFeet Carbon, but solved the problem by going one size larger than the size chart prescribed. I initially felt the SuperFeet arch support was too close to my heel, if that makes sense. Sizing up moved the arch support towards my toes and relieved the pain entirely.

    Any recommendations for who I should seek out for a quality custom skate fitting in the Chicago area? The new retail fit systems have left me in between sizes due to my wide/low-volume foot, and a recent (non-hockey) ankle injury resulted in size and shape differences between my left and my right. I'm currently in a well-loved pair of 2013ish Bauer Supreme 190s but am open to other brands.

    Ha, so noted. Thank you.

    Has Bauer set a release date? Apologies if I missed that elsewhere...

    Nothing secret or special, just saw a P6 for sale and have a P15 in my possession. Sorry!

    Thanks!

    Looks like these are both Drury-like curves--are there any differences between the two?

    Paint job, no branding... does his bottom hand come off his stick? Found the pic at this link: https://thehockeywriters.com/rangers-jaromir-jagr-tenure/

    Reviving an older topic to ask if there's some sort of definitive guide to the pro stock shin models out there. Does this exist? Does a pro catalog exist?
  11. mwerth
    Thanks to you both!

    Anyone know what the deal is with the Bauer gloves in this tweet? I like that they don't have the Nexus graphics. (Also, One95 stick??)

    The 5000/5500/7500 was my go-to helmet. Best fit I could find. Anyone have suggestions for a similar-fitting helmet? I'm open to non-Bauer options as well (sorry if that's inappropriate for this thread).

    Thanks! My understanding was there was an upgrade in LS3 steel quality that corresponded with the release of Edge holders/steel. Is it safe to assume that if there was an improvement in the LS3, the LS2 also improved?
  15. mwerth
    How does the LS2 Edge steel compare to LS3 and/or LS4 in terms of quality?

    Has anyone seen Eagle shoulder pads at retail yet? Web locations welcome.

    Great cage, I really like mine

    I've been a Bauer Supreme/4-Roll guy for a long time, but these are the first pair that make me want to deviate. Must try some on, they're beauts.

    For those interested, here's a link to buy these: http://www.stanfields.com/products.asp?CategoryID=30

    Thanks. My LHS was pretty stunned to see the one-hour recommendation. The person that helped me and I were both under the assumption that 24 hours were needed.

    I recently bought One100's and the tag Bauer attached to them said to wait at least one hour after baking. Is there something different with the technology in the One100 (vs. TotalOne, APX) that accounts for this difference?
  22. mwerth
    How's the X:60 core pad treating you? The recent thread about girdles vs. pants has me thinking about one.
  23. mwerth
    If you sew the piece of the shell behind the opening the zippers create then the area where you were cut will be covered. You'll also be able to leave the velcro/zipper in place this way. The Bauer One95s have something similar -- if you navigate through the specs linked on this page: http://www.bauer.com/gear/player/pants/1093-BAUER#shell there's a good image of what I'm trying to describe. The Bauer description refers to an "inner pleat."
  24. mwerth
    Do the legs have zippers? If so, opening them up will certainly help. I know I personally don't like the look of having the legs open, but if you like the pants enough then this might be worth trying: buy a shell that you won't mind cutting up, then have a tailor or shoemaker (or do it yourself if you're ambitious and confident) sew the material behind the openings the zippers create. You'll still be able to wear the pants either open or closed, and it'll be harder to tell when the zippers are open. Hope this helps.

    Anyone tried the Vector Pro girdle?
