Vapor XXXX Pro gloves without Nike swoosh...where to buy?

[sw2001 0]

I was wondering if anyone knew where I can buy a pair of Bauer Vapor XXXX Pro gloves that don't have the Nike swoosh logo on them?

I see tons of NHL and AHL level players with them now, but haven't seen any online or in any of my LHS's. Thanks!

Bauer branded glove is not available on retail.

Your best bet finding the glove is eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/VAPOR-XXXX-CUSTOM-MADE...=item255825cde8

Yeah, I've been checking ebay a lot and have seen those, but I need black with white. Thanks!

Any idea why they won't sell them at retail? Is it because the x:60 gloves are coming out soon?

Part of the deal, after the divestment of Bauer by Nike, was that the equipment would be branded as Nike Bauer for a period of time. Within that period the XXXX gloves were available. None of the newer Bauer stuff has Nike on it (Supreme one75, x60, etc...).
