ovechkin visor from the all star game?

Recommended Posts

Yeah my mirrored sheild is a mess, its relly scratched up. I do not believe there are hockey players who would use this shield for them to spoil their "claims". I would buy one though, no doubt its a nice shield.

of course there's a REALLY high markup. But Oakley claims it's because of the iridium lenses that drives the costs(we all know that's a load of bull). I doubt that they are banking on loosing that selling pitch to gain a few sales of the "ovechkin visor." I, of course could be wrong, but I'll believe it when I see it. Plus iridium lenses scratch really easily, I at least hope that they'd coat the lenses in something to keep them from scratching to avoid the "After one ice time my ovie half shield is all scratched up" threads.

:D Very true. They use the AFR on the football shields that seem to hold up to scratches and fog well....but we know that they are inside the cage...vs outside like a hockey shield.

but i think that the film needs to be on both sides to keep the extra strength the iridium provides. *shrug*

P.S. I know nothing about football shields, I never used one when I played and wasn't a gear whore like I am with hockey. :P

That might be one of the one's he used, but it isn't the one from the all-star game because it was blue and was oakley not itech. Still good find. Here's one on ebay for football Here

Straight cut, looks pretty sick

How do you think it would look with this silver helmet here?
