Recommended Posts

It really depends on what you're looking for. Fit is most important, I'd recommend going to a shop and wearing the gloves while holding a stick and even stick handling or shooting if you can. 4 different gloves, 4 different fits. I have the Bauer 4 Rolls, cuz I was looking for a traditional look with a high volume/wrist movement fit and slim fingers. Vapor is a more snug volume fit with longer fingers. Vectors are also snug volume but has a bent shape...I couldn't wear it because of the bend at then wrist (Ovechkin loves it though). Haven't seen or tried the S7 yet.

Cheers

just my recommendation...but the NBH 4 rolls are a LOT of glove for the price. More so than any of the other gloves you have mentioned. Like the others have said the fit is the most crucial aspect, however if that is a go or a nonissue, the NBH 4rolls are awesome especially for the price

Not to complicate things since this is not on your list, but I just got the One90s and they are absurdly awesome. The palm is sick, fit is beautiful. I had very loose gloves before and these are much tighter but they feel amazing. The cuff was not as tight as I expected. If you can check those out, just a sick sick glove. I've heard that the Supreme 70s are the same except the palm and have come highly recommended as well if price is an issue with the One90s. I suggest looking into the Supreme line at least.

i was debating between the 4 rolls and vapor XVs and ended up going for the latter. if you play contact the 4 rolls are a great bet but i just didnt need that much padding/heft. the tighter fit on the vapor was a plus for me also

I have the Easton S-7's and they're a nice glove. Very light and protective. If you don't like the Easton flex cuff however you should avoid them. I don't mind them but a lot of other guys seem to not like the flex cuff very much. It's a personal preference thing so you'll need to suit yourself.

i would highly recomend you stay away from the newer vector gloves they are really heavy and INCREDIBLY stiff

then when they soften up they dont bend in the right places and just dont feel gd

just to note im speaking from experience with the v10's

seriously though, since we have no idea what you prefer in a glove, it's difficult to make suggestions. if you can't go try them all on... i'll tell you that the NBH 4-roll is pretty loose on the back of my hand. i normally wear 14" gloves, but went to a 13" in the 4-roll, and they're still loose-fitting. can't describe the others cause i don't have them in front of me.

but since i'm rolling with this whole "not trying things on in a LHS" thing, might as well order these:

I've tried on every glove except the CCMs. The 4 roll was by far the best feeling glove. The Vapor line feels very stiff and very tight in the lower thumb area. The S7s aren't a bad glove (light and comfortable) but for the price, the 4 roll is the way to go. I also like the traditional look so for me going with the 4 roll is an easy choice.
