  1. oooo...I really like the MLX with the black tuuks! :)
  2. one more pair of Eagle PPFi: post buyout, orange liner. pre-buyouts are still preferable but these are still really nice gloves.
  3. I got them through PSHG. I asked about the Hossa cuff before I paid. they told me to just pay the regular amount and if Warrior would do the Hossa cuff they'd add the upcharge on later. I haven't been asked to pay any extra, the gloves are on the way and the pics that PSHG sent don't show the underside but the top side looks like the plain blooming cuff (that I actually do like) to me. I don't know, I'll probably make my decision when the gloves arrive at my door.
  4. I actually just heard that my gloves will ship today! unfortunately it looks like they didn't do the Hossa cuff like I wanted. ordered on 1/12, btw.
  5. how long was your production time? I recently put in an order with similar mods and was wondering how much longer it might be.
  6. I agree about the India Ink. I have a pair of maroon custom Franchises that I used a fabric marker on to cover the white stitching and even though the color was spot on I have to re-do it every few months. so far I haven't been able to find India Ink in the color I need. I did use a Sharpie to black out a pair of Eagles and that came out fine. not purple looking at all. I haven't had to re-do it but I also don't use that pair of gloves that often either. you might try a Sharpie Paint Marker oil-based if you can't find the India Ink. test it out on one of the spots that are more hidden and see how it goes.
  7. my newest Eagles: I always wanted a pair of these. finally nabbed a pair off of Ebay.
  8. very nice! I especially like the silver trim. it really makes the whole glove. buy that woman something nice for Valentine's Day!
  9. 2 years ago my gf and I were in Pittsburgh and dropped by the Perani's there. we found her one of these blades in the RH Federov pattern. she LOVED it, said it was one of the best blades she's ever had especially for the incredibly cheap price. funny since she had one of those Inno sticks before and couldn't stand it.
  10. yep, $99 a pair. my first pair of red gloves. I've been waiting an extra week for them thanks to Snowpocalypse. I was hoping to have them last Friday for a tourney with my red & white team but the weather delayed them until today. :(
  11. took advantage of the Monkey's deal on PPFi's last week. sooooo glad to see that they are pre-Vaughn Eagles!
  12. painted my Vapor XXXX's black. before: after: very pleased with how they came out. never really liked the original design. all work done with a Sharpie Paint Marker.
  13. there were also some that are called custom but are sold retail like the ones on the Monkey: http://www.hockeymonkey.com/warrior-hockey-gloves-franchise-custom.html
  14. mine are indeed maroon and not Phoenix red. one other note on mine: they came with the standard white stitching down the front. I used maroon and black fabric markers to make the white disappear.
  15. I have a teammate who writes a popular blog on the Thrashers. he knows almost nothing about hockey gear but MLX sent him a pair for free to "review". he hasn't had a chance to use them yet. so unfair!!!!
  16. I'd only do it if they were offered without those horrid graphics. can't stand the way they look.
  17. lol! I have a pair of gloves that would go with those. they're not purple though:
  18. couldn't resist that Daily Hockey Deal last week at the Monkey on '09 Warrior Franchises gloves are navy, btw.
  19. these are Pro Style Atlanta with my choice of colors: the only difference between these and the material options that the customizer gives you is that I switched the material on the pinky stripe from Tufftek to Classic (leather) because I wanted to incorporate all the material options into the glove not to mention that silver/gray is not a Tufftek option and I wasn't sure how the silver would look in the carbon.
  20. nice to see that Bauer endorsement deal's working out for you. couldn't get you to switch to the sticks though?
  21. I have 2 pairs of carbon Franchises and my gf has a pair of carbon Creepers. these things are beasts! my gf has had hers for almost 2 years playing 2-3 times a week and they still look brand new.
  22. gotcha. do you find the fingers on the Savard to be shorter? the fingers on the Eagles are tiny. pretty much the only reason I can wear them since I normally wear a 13" in Warriors and a PPFi in Eagles.
  23. I have Savard's Eagles from his days with the Thrashers. is this the Savard cuff that you're talking about?
  24. anybody that can tell me when Pothier used these it would be appreciated. seems like the 2007 World Championships is most likely but I can't find any photographic evidence of it plus hadn't MIA already switched over to the Warrior name by that time?
  25. Traded the Reasoner Warriors that I bought at the Thrashers sale for Pothier's MIAs. they'll need to be cleaned up a little and probably need new palms. very unique pair of gloves though.
