What mission gloves should I get?

[vgnmail 0]

Hey all, I'm looking to replace my aging Oakley Mace gloves. They lasted well, but so far theres a nice hole in the palm developing..

I'm interested in getting a new pair of gloves. Since hockeygiant.com is offering 30% off on Mission gloves, i'm looking at the mission gloves.

What do you recommend?

Mission Boss - http://www.hockeygiant.com/mis09bssbglvsr.html

Mission Fuel 95 - http://www.hockeygiant.com/misf95glvsr.html

Mission Commander - http://www.hockeygiant.com/mis09cmdbglvsr.html

Mission Fuel WS - http://www.hockeygiant.com/misf90glvsrgnl.html

My main concern is flexibility.. not too worried about protection since I play in relatively low-contact games. Also, if there's any other gloves you recommend other than the Missions, please feel free to. I'm just looking to get the best possible deal and the mission 30% coupon is pretty enticing

If you're willing to go $30 more, you can get the Fuel 130 Pros.

Fantastic glove, fit is snug but not too tight (NBH One90 was tighter for me for example), cable knit so light as heck, and the protection is superb - a lot more than you would think looking at the glove.

I have two pairs already and am considering a third to stock up 'just in case'.

+1 on the Fuel 130 gloves. I got mine three weeks ago and love them. Fit is not too tight, like some people are led to believe.

+1 again on the Fuel 130s. My teammate (minwookie) has them and can sing their praises.

The Mission gloves from the Fuel 90 right up to the Fuel 130 are a great buy. Mission makes really decent stuff for a great price but don't see a lot of guys with Mission equipment. Don't understand why anyone on a tight budget wouldn't go with their stuff because you can save Mega bucks on their equipment.

Can anyone compare the sizing to some other gloves maybe on the 130's? I normally wear a 14 in eagle, nbh 4-rolls, tps r8's. I remember trying ona pair in the store a few months ago and they were a little snug, would the 15's be a little looser? Is the cuff loose and unrestrictive?

i believe a 15 would make it too long and wide for you....mission is meant to be snug, its not the tightest but its nowhere near the loosest
