chocks86 82 Report post Posted November 7, 2017 (edited) Dallas Police team pants shells finally came in. The quality feels decent, but I kind of wish for the money we paid for them that the logo, stars, and lettering would have been embroidered instead of sublimated. I might look into getting a company to make me one at a later time, but for right now these will do nicely, and they will probably hold up pretty well.

Is that screen print, or sublimation? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's definitely better than screen print, but I'd also be disappointed to not get embroidery. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My p28's were actually a 6 lie so there isn't a ton of difference. I use a shorter stick so the higher lie works better for me. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blue Moon was my favorite ice cream as a kid :P I was critical of the look of the True boot, but it's really grown on me. It features the custom colors so much better than the VH version did. To my taste anyway 😜 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think the skates look good with black either. So I'd rather have colour than nothing. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Besides it's not really a matter of what they look like but how they feel and perform. Enjoy them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sko buffs 30 Report post Posted November 9, 2017 So I decided to cut down the 1N a little. It was originally 66 inches. At the top the walls were pretty standard thickness. Once I cut it down, I noticed it was significantly thicker. This isn't a 1N SE so why is it so much thicker? Pictures for reference. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Buzz_LightBeer 969 Report post Posted November 9, 2017 Taller than retail Pro sticks have a fused extension. You can clearly see two separate pieces, the plug tenon and the outer shaft. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bartjo06 37 Report post Posted November 10, 2017 Snagged an 87 flex P92 1X Lite yesterday after trying it at the Own the Moment store compared to last year's 1X. Marked/noticeable improvement. We'll see how longevity is! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
icewalker_bg 126 Report post Posted November 11, 2017 Played with one for a bit at the LHS, always loved the shaft on these and it felt like a really really good stick, probably a touch blade heavy. Would love to own one but I am not crazy enough to spend close to 400$ on one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
