Chadd 916 Report post Posted May 31, 2004 Not sure if there's any 970s left locally but the 950s and 900s are $40 at my local shop. I also have a lightly used pair of 970s I'd sell for a similar price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thunderhockey19 0 Report post Posted May 31, 2004 why are they so cheap? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chadd 916 Report post Posted May 31, 2004 Because nobody will buy them and they have a ton of them. Most of them have been sitting in the shop for two years or so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thunderhockey19 0 Report post Posted May 31, 2004 really i wonder why i want to get a pair of 970s in like green and yellow. i tried some on at peranis and they were really comfortable i dont know why anyone wouldnt want them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest 2048 Report post Posted May 31, 2004 Price. Why buy the brand you've never heard of for 170 when eagle is selling for 135 or 150? I went with musko and was happy (thanks again, Chadd), but some guys may want a looser fitting glove. In that case, they could just take out one of the pads, but again, why pay more for a brand you've never heard of when eagle's cheaper? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chadd 916 Report post Posted May 31, 2004 Dealer cost on the 970s was $110 or so and I got mine for $75. Otherwise I wouldn't have purchased them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thunderhockey19 0 Report post Posted May 31, 2004 yeah i used to have a pair of eagles im not really a fan of not having split fingers. thats one of the reasons i like the muskokas.i dont think i could use a glove that doesnt have split fingers anymore.

Chadd 916 Report post Posted May 31, 2004 Their customer service is very good as well. The gloves are a bit expensive but they really put that money back into the products. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jgillard 0 Report post Posted June 1, 2004 I am a complete newby, and I had to get all new equipment. I ended up picking up a pair of Muskoka Zr90's (which I can get away with has I have abnormaly short fingers) for $50cdn. The guy at the clearance place said they were a steal as they were great gloves, but that no one had really heard of them.Much to my surprise the exact same pair was $173cdn at the LHS. As far as I can tell they are quite comfortable, and I am glad that I bought them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree their customer services is great. I bought a pair from twin ponds east(ice rink near me) and within five months they got a hole in them, and my mom got really pissed. so she called muskoka, and told them about it, and they sent me a new piar free of charge. they also didn't ask for the other glovese back.

JR Boucicaut 3804 Report post Posted June 1, 2004 Twin Ponds East...is that the one by you, or the shithole we played in, Chadd? The one whose bathrooms weren't cleaned for like 3 mos? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Royals92 0 Report post Posted June 1, 2004 sounds like twin ponds, it doesn't seem like they clean the bathrooms. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chadd 916 Report post Posted June 1, 2004 Yeah, it's 2 miles from my house. Nash palms never last me anywhere close to 5 months, I'm not surprised they fot a hole in them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thunderhockey19 0 Report post Posted June 2, 2004 so do you guys think these gloves (the 970s or 950s) are worth around 110 and 120 usd, or no? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chadd 916 Report post Posted June 2, 2004 That's right around dealer cost on the 970. They're a nice glove, just not quite right for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
