Hills 712 Report post Posted January 27, 2021 New True gloves. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cavs019 708 Report post Posted January 27, 2021 (edited) The red heel on the prototype Vapor looks awesome. Just the right amount of pop and identifiable from a distance/on TV while still being a classy looking black boot. I’m sure it will end up like the Ultrasonic with some horrible bright yellow racing stripes but here’s to hoping.

Looks like his ring finger is going off to the side. That always bothered me in gloves and I always felt that it was poor craftsmanship 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It seems more common in very flexible gloves that are meant to move a lot. If everything isn't lined up perfectly they end up all crooked. I hope True gloves and protective get better, they're a great company and I hope they can succeed beyond skates and sticks. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Burning Bear 76 Report post Posted February 5, 2021 (edited) Interesting... they look almost identical to the 2S Pros that came before them. I don't mind that at all, though. My 2S Pros are easily the best pair of gloves I've ever owned. No need to fix what isn't broken. Edited February 5, 2021 by Burning Bear 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My 2S Pros are easily the best pair of gloves I've ever owned. No need to fix what isn't broken. The cuff and cuff roll are different. Cuff roll looks kinda like it has an Easton style cuff to it, and cuff has the same idea. The 2s pros have a little cutaway in the cuff roll to make room for the tab on the cuff to retract. Agree that there amazing gloves. The protection is unreal Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BenBreeg 493 Report post Posted February 11, 2021 I remember they pretty much put Coffey on everything. You'd have different curves on the same rack of 5030s all marked Coffey. I remember they also used to have a "BC" and "SC" stamped on them and I thought that meant "Big Curve" or "Small Curve". I don't think things were as standardized back then. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stock curves were for benders! 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It isn't being worn correctly - it should be flush with the J-Hooks. It is likely slightly too large, but it would be much better if it was tighter. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
