Tailboard Jockey 25 Report post Posted July 18, 2008 I'd love to some pro stocks or custom eagles.......gotta ease that past the wife LOLI like the NBH red/white 4 rolls....and i'm not a LBH fan......those were nice. California just doesn't have as much nice hockey shops....especially up North here.There are 3 here (San Carlos, Oakland, and San Jose) that I can think of off the top of my head that have pretty good selections, and one of them has alot of pro stocks and Eagles.

MLSman 22 Report post Posted July 19, 2008 Jason at EWH is the man!Just got in my custom CP92s in Royal and Navy. Sick.I also just got my custom XXXX skates. I will be posting all my new stuff on "show it off" real soon. EWH is by far the most responsive and knowledgeable I have seen. All my custom stuff will come from there from now on...got another pair of skates coming from him in about 2 months.Jason was also the most honest...he warned me it could take 10-12 weeks for the Eagle gloves to arrive...and it took about 10 weeks. They are worth the wait. All I ask for is the job to be done right and to be kept informed on the ETA. They do this well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

li7039 0 Report post Posted July 19, 2008 What's custom with your skate?do they just take the stock skates, throw a different holder and tongue on them and call them customs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JR Boucicaut 3816 Report post Posted July 19, 2008 In a lot of these cases, that's exactly what is happening.I figured out a way to do a truly custom skate without me being present, but as I don't want to work in hockey retail anymore, I'll probably never act up on it. I could feed the orders through a friendly shop, but would have to figure out how to make it worth my while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I could feed the orders through a friendly shop, but would have to figure out how to make it worth my while.I totally understand your point about customs. Foot measurements for size adjustments in length, width, heel, quarters based off foot measurements would truly be customs. I totally agree. For me the last of the XXXX is absolutely perfect in a 9D. I just needed minor adjustments in stiffness (+1). The rest were just add ons (grip liner, reinforced eyelets, double-stitching, and One90 tongue with black felt): Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Never seen a glove that looked like a skate before. :P Responding to JRs comment.Only customization to gloves are +1 fingers with colors and material. All fit like 15" in fingers, but are 13.5" lengthI figured out a way to do a truly custom skate without me being present, but as I don't want to work in hockey retail anymore, I'll probably never act up on it.

Is it close to there? :oThe Sheraton is about a minute from Pure Hockey... once you're at the hotel, ask them to guide you to Wood Rd. Real, real simple....Pure Hockey will be down a ways on the left. Although I don't know if Braintree is the best representation of the chain.... they haven't had a whole lot of anything lately.

So, i didn't personally customize them, but they are exactly what i would have done if i had gotten custom.Those would go great with my teams jerseys. We have the pre-edge(don't know how to describe it) or old sharks jerseys, the white and the black third. On topic, amazing looking Eagles the last couple of pages!

Balzinsker 0 Report post Posted July 29, 2008 Just got these beauties a week agoCustom X70's, with MSH2 palm and gussets. I came in expecting a rather tight fit after trying on some solid finger X70's, but the feel and volume of these gloves just blew me away. The best part was the time it took to get them, a mere 6 weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
