TPS Response Plus Gloves (black cable-knit)

[Ranger-#8 1]

Will TPS still custom a pair of HG1 or are they to far gone to get a custom?

[JR Boucicaut 3760]

They won't. Not in the current lineup. Sorry.

[Ranger-#8 1]

Ok thanks for your help. One last question what other glove would you say the HG1 fits like?

[JR Boucicaut 3760]

Totally. HG1 is a traditional glove.

:)

[Ranger-#8 1]

So it is a tighter fitting glove unlike the eagle design?

I can tell you for sure because I have never tried any TPS traditional style gloves, but from pics of it it looks like its a lose fitting glove, well at least not as tight as eastons and not as lose as eagles. Maybe somewhere in the middle but i dunno kno much about gloves.

Then why comment?

It's good to know that I could probably get custom HGT's with regular split fingers. I'm not really a big fan of the tapered fingers, they just didn't feel right to me when I tried them on. Does anybody know where I can order custom Louisvile gloves? I checked w/ my lhs and they couldn't help me out. Thanks in advance.

So is Whip correct, is it a medium fit. Or is he completly wrong since i found a paor of HG1, and need to know how they fit.

Like JR said, it's a traditional glove. Not too tight and not too open.

I'm going to stop doing it. Not that I can't get them; I'm just sick of the inquiries.

If you guys want to do a group order a la Mission one from CB, then we'll talk. Y'all will just have to decide on one glove.

I've been wearing the R2 glove lately and the fingers on the pro version of the HGT are the same, except with plastic. The fingers are not as tapered. I would say that it is tough to notice once they are on.

Hey JR, is the cable-knit material really shiny like the pics give the impression of, or is that the angle and lighting giving that impression? In mack's and Shark's gloves the materials look very shiny unlike regular nylon.

[JR Boucicaut 3760]

It's pretty shiny.

[ambro 0]

Alright. I think that all gloves look better non-shiny.

[Ranger-#8 1]

Oh yea for anybody wondering. I emailed TPS today, and they told me that they can not do normal split fingers only tapered.

[mack 44]

I finally got to use these today and they're easily the lightest gloves I've tried. Never tried the split fingers before but now I can't see how I hadn't for all this time. The shine is also not that much more than any other nylon though.

Ranger, don't know what specifically you're looking for, but Goalieheaven has a pro return pair of Navy 15" HG1's. They're nice, but no where as nice as Mack's!

To me those look like HGTs with HG1 fingers. The angled backrolls aren't part of the HG1s so I don't know what's up with those gloves.

[mojo122 530]

Good pick up. I didn't notice that initially. You think they would be labeled HGT's instead?

[JR Boucicaut 3760]

That's the glove I'm gonna make...that's the one Heatley wore.
