Found some old gear at my parents house

Recommended Posts

Gloves and helmet I had not seen for years. I dont think I ever wore these gloves often. They are some sort of Nike. I found them in a box with some old Cooper shoulder pads.

That looks like the first retail model they had, the name escapes me, but I remember them having some sort of carbon-looking patch on the thumb. Nice find regardless.

Yours don't, that's why I didn't say they were the pair I'm talking about. My guess is yours are a lower model than those.

I have no idea what model they are to be honest with you. There is no model designation or any clue other than the Nike Swoosh on the glove.

I think I last wore them in maybe 1996 or 1997. I'm not positive, but it has been 10 years.

Yeah, they came out around '96-'97 and I want to say they're something like Tiempo or something goofy like that. I want to say Invisio but that was a later Quest line.

Maybe Chadd or JR can provide us with some clues tommorow. Who knows? I think I'm going to wear my old blue helmet to pick-up hockey next week. It still fits, just needs a re-padding.

Got a pair just like those in the garage. I bought them at a Nike Outlet to replace my old-school long cuff Coopers. I should try and find those.

Thats odd..I used those to replace my old Coopers as well. For outdoor use, along with my old Riedell's.

I had the pair you are talking about Mack. It was their top of the line glove at the time. Plastic inserts, a funky dry fit looking exterior and a multi-layer palm with grip fingers. Sold them earlier this season.

That´s the Nike Bolero I think. Took ages to break in and were totally uncomfy.

Sounds right to me. I didn't like the feel so I avoided them.

They dont seem too uncomfortable to me. Then again I never really wore them(too small), but they're definitely not supple like the newer top of the line gloves. They're perfect for pond hockey. As for the ole helmet. The pads fell out, but I found them in a box nearby. I should find a way to get them re-padded..I always liked that helmet.
