    +1. I had a pair of pro Bully's with the embroidered logo. I think the screen actually ends up looking better and I've never had one peel or wear off.
  2. shoeshine boy
    love the green Eagles. are those your customs or are they like the rest of your gloves?
  3. shoeshine boy
    just a guess but those are probably part of the "home/away" pairs that were offered by retailers such as Total Hockey.
  4. shoeshine boy
    I'm using the second from the top.

    finally had a holiday weekend (Confederate Memorial Day. really. look it up) to put up my glove racks: still need a few more pegs......

    if you follow the link in the Ebay thread and look at the sellers other items you'll see them listed there.
  7. shoeshine boy
    you got a good haul. I couldn't go this year and quite frankly don't have room because I haven't sold the stuff I got 2 years ago. how were their prices this year?
  8. shoeshine boy
    new skates for the first time in almost 10 years:
  9. shoeshine boy
    I'm not sure. I bought these off of Ebay from a seller in Windsor who seemed to have quite a few pairs of "custom" Warrior gloves. looking at the customizer I figure it has to be the "golden yellow" because it and "brass" are the only yellow colors offered in carbon and it's definitely not brass.
  10. shoeshine boy
    the left is the blooming, right is the old standard.
  11. shoeshine boy
    here ya go: I like both cuffs but prefer the blooming because I think it has more mobility than the standard.
  12. shoeshine boy
    though I'm not a fan of the Eastons made for the Thrashers for that season I have to disagree about the overall color combo for them being "ugly". look at Kovy's Thrasher gloves. some of the best Warriors ever designed and who cares if they're a bad team? some of us like the more unusual designs. on another note, there's a guy playing in the higher levels of the adult league with a pair just like this that Easton had made for Kovalchuk. I imagine that he never even put them on.
  13. shoeshine boy
    that was kind of the point that I was trying to make. not sure why the Warrior Canada people wouldn't oblige when the Warrior USA customer folks were making it happen seemingly very easily.
  14. shoeshine boy
    yes. the gloves in the auction pic were the same except that the "Warrior" on the cuff was white with blue outline. mine is (obviously) blue with white outline.
  15. shoeshine boy
    Red, White and Navy Franchises bought off of Ebay: slightly different than the gloves that were pictured. not a big enough deal to complain about but I dropped the seller a note to let him know that he shouldn't do that.

    Warrior AK27 Pro gloves blacked out with India Ink: a few spots have turned out kind of "shiny" and I have no idea why. you can kind of see it on the index finger of the left glove. any ideas how to fix this?
  17. shoeshine boy
    I don't know, I don't read the reply I got from Warrior Canada (posted on the previous page) that way at all and if that were the case why wouldn't PSHG just tell me that instead of saying, "we'll ask but can't guarantee."? as previously stated it seems like a customer service problem on Warrior Canada's end.
  18. shoeshine boy
    I never thought that I was going to get the Hossa cuff for no upcharge in price. I stated very clearly to PSHG that I was willing to pay the upcharge. they said that they would ask but couldn't guarantee. fair enough. my gripe isn't with PSHG, my gripe is with Warrior Canada. there is absolutely no reason that they shouldn't be able to accommodate these requests at time of order for the extra charge as evidenced by the fact that shops going through Warrior USA are doing the work for the extra fee. it sounds like Warrior will be adding cuff options to the customizer in a few months so maybe it'll all be moot anyway. if/when I order another pair of Franchise customs I will be going through a shop that deals with Warrior USA. Warrior Canada clearly has some customer service issues evidenced by the fact that it took over a month for me to get a reply. I paid over $250 for my gloves so I expect better customer service than 5 weeks to reply to an email.

    those familiar with this thread may remember my issue with my latest pair of Franchise customs, Kovalchuk clones that I ordered through PSHG and asked for but never got the Hossa cuff. Joe from Warrior USA suggested that I contact Warrior Canada directly and see if they could do anything about it. over a month later I finally received a reply: Hi, Unfortunately at this time we can't do any custom additions that are not available online. This also includes sending the cuff at a later date as per your request. We are working on adding the Hossa style cuff and other options onto the customizer, but at this time, they aren't available. Have a nice day, Warrior Canada considering that Warrior USA is perfectly capable of granting these special requests this reply is just mind-boggling to me!
  20. shoeshine boy
    if he ordered through PSHG then it comes with a standard blooming cuff.
  21. shoeshine boy
    well...yes, they did get my order correct but they do not deal well with special requests such as Hossa cuff. I kind of get the idea that they either don't want to be bothered or are afraid to ask Warrior to do it. here are both of my pairs done through PSHG: both pairs were done with white stitching down the stripes. for the maroon ones I simply took a fabric marker and Sharpie to them to make the stitching match the stripe and I can 100% confirm the presence of the VA-80 Propack and name. that said, if I get another pair I would probably go with somebody such as Ice Warehouse so that I can get the Hossa cuff. I asked for it on my Kovy clones and was told, "warrior might do it". it seems like everyone who deals with Joe from Warrior USA has no problem getting these little extras for the extra charge.
  22. shoeshine boy
    the specs I submitted for my Kovalchuk clones would have cost $302 on the customizer. this included yellow mustang palms ($20 extra), mesh gussets ($6 extra), name ($6 extra), number and pro style ($10 extra). the PSHG gloves come standard with VA-80 with Pro-Pack Foams (an extra $16 on the customizer) and name stitched on the cuff (an extra $6 on the customizer) PSHG charged me $266 which included shipping. the mustang palm is very soft and supple. I don't like it as much as the Eagle MSH2 but since that's not an option.....
  23. shoeshine boy
    100% sure that their prices are in USD. I've used them twice for Warrior customs and yes, they deal with Warrior Canada not Warrior USA and as such gloves are shipped directly from Montreal. PSHG are great people but I have one word of warning: don't expect them to help you get any custom mods like special cuffs, colors or materials. I don't know why they won't work with Warrior on this but they won't do it.
  24. shoeshine boy
    I thought so but the pic looks a little brown so I wasn't sure. can't wait to see the finished product. :)
  25. shoeshine boy
    is that the brown or the black?
