[DarkStar50 679]

I just placed my order for the RBK Olympic Program Prepack. They are specing out gloves and OPS in Olympic country colors for retail. They are due to be shipped 1/15/06. The product is HG 5K and OPS 5K. The countries are USA, Canada, Russia, Finland, Sweden, Czech, and Switzerland. The OPS patterns are USA Modano Right- qty 6, Canada Pronger Left- qty 1, Russia Datsyuk Left- qty 1, Sweden Sedin Left- qty 1, Finland Kapanen Left- qty 1, Czech Jagr Left- qty 1, Swiss DiPietro(?) Right- qty 1. The graphics on the gloves and OPS are very well done. The gloves will be 6 pair USA, all other 1 pair each.

Can you pick this up at my shop? I don't like shipping OPS. I had UPS snap one in half on me. + UPS shipping is $$$$$$$$. Let me know.

What are the curves like? I assume the Modano, Dats, Pronger are the retail curves, but where do the Kappanen, Sedin, Jagr and Swiss come in?

Got a link to a pic of the German Eagles? I hope they aren't carbon weave material like the WCOH gloves...

The German 5Ks are indeed nice.

Ahhh so then you mean the German RBKs, not the Eagles...

Ahhh ok. Yeah, those were pretty nice, but I still hate carbon weave.

these are great! Maybe i will have luck with MIA!

Any picture or scan of those 5k?

[beaucoup_fish 0]

He means these.

Yeah, I know - like I said, the carbon weave.

[JR Boucicaut 3805]

Just put the picture up for others who may have not seen them, not to prove a point.

I think the Germany RBKs looked better than the Eagles. I don't remember who posted em, but they were linked from a European site. Beautiful...

I'll take your Swiss gloves if they are in a 15"

Yeah I posted those a couple of months back when they were on pre order. Never saw the Eagles before but they are nice as well. You would get shot wearing these over here, though ;)

By the way. Does anyone know of a manufacturer that can embroider a flag on the thumb like on these Eagles when custom ordering gloves? I would really love to customise gloves to Team Greece specs

But then everyone will wonder what the extra hole is for.

I was wondering just that yesterday, about the flag on the thumb. I was wondering if MIA would do it if I gave them a call for an order. Probably not, but it would be worth a shot when I get the money for a pair.
