    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!

    if he ordered through PSHG then it comes with a standard blooming cuff.

    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.

    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.....

    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.

    I thought so but the pic looks a little brown so I wasn't sure. can't wait to see the finished product. :)
  7. shoeshine boy
    is that the brown or the black?
  8. shoeshine boy
    thanks for quoting every single one of those gigantic pictures.

    I have a Malkin just like it, "Meigray" tag and all. I knew when I bought mine though that it was a knock-off. I've seen some where they have the game-worn tag with spelling errors. hysterical!
  10. shoeshine boy
    correct. here's a better pic of it:

    do it!!! you'll be en envy of everybody here! :)

    I believe Ice Warehouse is good at accommodating special requests. the big thing is that you want to go through a retailer that uses Warrior USA rather than Warrior Canada. Joe at Warrior USA is awesome when it comes to customer service. he couldn't help with my gloves since they went through Warrior Canada but he did help me with some other Warrior related issues that I had.
  13. shoeshine boy
    if you go through PSHG don't expect to get any mods such as a Hossa cuff. I asked for it on my last pair but didn't get it. trying to get the problem fixed but Warrior Canada (not to be confused with Warrior USA) apparently doesn't respond to emails.
  14. shoeshine boy
    those turned out well! the green is more subtle than the computer rendition.
  15. shoeshine boy
    thank you for helping me feel a little more normal. ;)
  16. shoeshine boy
    I got mustang on my last pair of custom Franchises and love them BUT I also have multiple pairs of gloves and am not generally hard on palms so I doubt that helps you. I have found the standard micro-nash palm to be a great palm as well. not as good as Eagle's MSH2 but that's not an option for non-Eagle gloves anymore.
  17. shoeshine boy
    it's not too bad but I've got black spots all over my yellow laces from the paint rubbing off. I think it's something to do with the material that the tongues are made out of.
  18. shoeshine boy
    nice! I don't recommend doing the tongues......
  19. shoeshine boy
    try out for Little Caesars? beyond that I don't know..... :)

    imo this is teh best shaft Easton ever made for players with smaller hands. I still have my 95 but gave my 70 away to a teammate. what flex is that one? let me know if you don't keep it, might buy it off you.
  21. shoeshine boy
    one of my teams is light blue so it works out. I've got enough gloves to handle almost any situation.

    in case you missed it in the custom glove thread: Kovalchuk clones: there's just something about this color combo and pattern that I just love. I changed a few things up. went with yellow mustang palms (love'em!) and requested the Hossa/Twist cuff but didn't get it. I've got a request into Warrior Canada to get this fixed. hopefully they'll do it.

    oooo...I really like the MLX with the black tuuks! :)

    one more pair of Eagle PPFi: post buyout, orange liner. pre-buyouts are still preferable but these are still really nice gloves.
