bunnyman666 445 Report post Posted November 27, 2013 Speaking of old school, my Grandpa mailed these to me. Bauer's, about 30 years old he says and skated on them twice. The steel is still sharp, no rust anywhere on the skates. I have no idea what these things are but they're freaking awesome.30 is about the right age on those. Tuuks were starting to appear, but only on a few models. I can't think of the player's name at the moment, but in the early to mid '80s I remember a bloke on the Rangers who was a tube blade hold out. Cool stuff there!!!!

Yes, that is probably early to mid '70s logo, dontcha think? The white plastic outsole makes me think 30 years, but the fancy punching makes me think older.

Krev 86 Report post Posted November 27, 2013 Perhaps he meant he purchased them 30 years ago? I'm not sure. What's the age range on these then? 40+ years? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IPv6Freely 2083 Report post Posted December 3, 2013 Adding to the stockpile. This is the first pair of the grey/blue model I've had. I don't like it nearly as much as the white model (these are much more bulky, and I don't care for the elbow cap) but still infinitely better than anything else I've managed to find.

Neo5370 132 Report post Posted December 3, 2013 You should try the Koncepts. It's like wearing nothing at all but they still provide, IMO, mid to upper-mid level protection. It's the model I'm currently trying to stockpile. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
althoma1 574 Report post Posted December 3, 2013 Those 2012 Projekts are a great pickup. Yes, they feel bulkier when you first try them on, but once you play a few games in them they're just as mobile as the 2010 versions and are more protective.

I'll give them a chance, but I'll still keep a lookout for the old version as well :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

steelnation248 101 Report post Posted December 11, 2013 Are the Easton's Brown and Orange...? Or is that just an illusion of the picture?They're brown and orange. They're sold at the rink the Whalers of the OHL plays at. They have those and new Easton models available. I can't remember the name of the newer style model though.

Very excited to try them out tomorrow.Specs listed in custom mitts thread.Those cannot be more beautiful. I don't know if its the flash on your camera or not but that red looks a lot like the red of Calgary's jersey vs Red Wings red. Hossa cuff looks good too. Well done.

Hordie Gowe 17 Report post Posted December 13, 2013 (edited) Seeing the Compuware gloves a few posts ago brought back some memories. Dug these out of the basement from my travel days, ended up using them for a couple seasons. They are pretty beat up,the palms are shot, and smell terrible but they got the job done. Had a pair in Little Caesars colors but have no idea where they went. Used my matching bag until last season until it completely fell apart. (Sorry the photos are a little small) Edited December 13, 2013 by Hordie Gowe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
