Eagle x5

Recommended Posts

Shortbus, I'll throw you a bone. X5 is a china made glove built off the fit of the x50 model glove.

how do you guys feel about this. There is no review on the prodcut

I've tried them on and they're a decent pair of gloves. They're lower end Eagles and personally I don't think you're getting your money's worth for the X5.

If you're looking at Eagles I would look at a higher end model with nicer palms. If you're looking for something in the same price range I really like NBH (Vapor X $10 less than X5), (Supreme 70, same price), (or 4-Rolls $10 more than X5.)

I'd personally go with the Supreme 70's. Their a much nicer glove for the money. With Eagles you would need to go to a higher end model and you'd pay more. The 70's are a better bang for the buck.

Durability of the palms on the X5 and 6 is suspect.

Thats true, I've only used them for 2 games, and it looks like the palms will be done by the end of the season.

I had the X6's (not sure exactly how closely related those are to the 5's), and the palms went to hell pretty quickly. Also, they felt extremely bulky to me. I switched over to Supreme 70's and haven't looked back since. Fantastic glove.

Since the new Vapor line is coming out (Vapor XXXX, XXV, etc) you might be able to get a very good deal on some of the older models, a XX or XV.

+1 for the Supreme 70's. I love mine.
