pro stock vapor xxxx gloves

Recommended Posts

this has nothing to do with the OP, but it is about the gloves....

ive recently began shopping for xxxx pro gloves as i love them now. been wanting to gather diff. NHL team colors of the glove. But with the new X:60 glove out, should i start going for the x60's or do you think the xxxx's are still heavily favored?

thanks for any opinions.

tblfan has both x60's and xxxx pro's. Maybe shoot him a pm

About ten PMs later... Why don't you guys just ask in or link me to the thread? I don't need 10 people asking me the same question via PM when you have the ability to post on a hockey equipment forum.

I prefer the X:60s because of the wider cuff opening. The X:60 is a mix between the XXX and XXXX gloves, the cuff is wider than the XXXX but tighter than the XXX. I prefer the palm on my XXXXs over the digital on the X:60s(because it's the thickest digital palm I've ever seen, by far). I would rather have a lock thumb but I'd take the thumb on the XXXXs compared to the X:60s.

So i bought a pair of pro stock xxxx's from TSR. However, I was not made aware there was no back-padding in the inner of the glove. I know some pro's can do without them, but i can't lol. Is there any place I can find the exact padding used on these gloves, or something similar?

thx

I think the Thrashers ones are pretty cool. Navy blue with the gold lettering and the light blue stripes.

The Bruins Winter Classic brown ones were cool. Been looking for a pair since the game. lol

I've got to say Canucks and Wings ones are great.

I prefer some of the newer ones without the stripes a lot more than the ones that do have the stripes.

have a pic of the Bruins ones of what they'd look like?

are the canucks blue the same as the leafs blue for gloves?

I also like the NYR xxxx's like the one Staal wears, I believe

I don't have a photo of the Bruins gloves. They had a few pairs on NHL Auctions after the game, but I haven't seen any since.

TSR did a run of 4 Rolls in "winter classic brown". I wonder if they could still do XXXXs. Probably not, since the 60s came out.

Canucks have their own blue as far as I know. When I ordered my last pair of Franchises, I told them I wanted to do a Canucks glove. That specific color is not available on the customizer, but it is available if you ask. When I got them, I compared them to my Canucks 40s and it's exactly the same color. I've never had Leafs gloves, so I don't have them to compare to. They look similar in photos, but I've never seen them side by side.

Oh yeah, I like the Tampa 40s. pretty cool and unique.

here is a link to the Bruins' photo gallery from the WC. you have to scroll thru, but it looks like Ference #21, Hunwick #48, Krejci #46, and Paille #20 are wearing the brown XXXXs.
