bunnyman Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 No doubt these were produced for the Canadiens Centennial game. I am on aretro-modern design kick lately.These are obviously not even PU leather. They are tricot. But they got the colour of natural leather right, and that's the cool part. I think when I get my custom VH skates, I want brown and black; however, I may see if I can't work in some tan, as well.Pix to come! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunnyman Posted December 3, 2013 Author Share Posted December 3, 2013 Here they are:Definitely looks almost goldish. Still cool and a nice alternative to the "new" neutral (black/white). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunnyman Posted December 12, 2013 Author Share Posted December 12, 2013 @goalnut3133The way the Blues are playing against any team from California, they will have a very short playoff run... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goalnut3133 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Well since the Calif teams are our biggest rivals, I will be rooting for the Blues to definitely put up a good fight!! I think they'll be able to hold their own against them.....Now the Nucks, ehh, that's a different story! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunnyman Posted December 13, 2013 Author Share Posted December 13, 2013 So far, the Blues fold like a cheap suit against the likes of the Kings, Sharks, and Ducks. Maybe the Blues should become the Rabbits, have Trix as their mascot, then treat those teams like Trix treats a doo rag. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunnyman Posted December 17, 2013 Author Share Posted December 17, 2013 Specs: pattern: x844 with modsmaterial: real leatherpalm: real leather1/2" longer cuff, extra padding on fingers and thumb, "Bunnyman" embroidered on cuff. White assembly thread, black binding, natural leather gussets. Eagle branding on cuff roll and Eagle head burnt into the leather.They are not "ready to play" out of the box. They are a fair bit stiffer than any glove I have ever played with. I didn't play with leather back in the day; I had nylon, then cable-knit outer shells, but with leather palms. I am wearing them whilst watching tele to break them in. They will not come out every single game, more than likely. But I can tell these will be with me for a few years.I chose a nice, stiff glove. You can get a more ready-to-play glove with cable-knit, as well as other softer materials. MHS is their performance palm, but you can spec a leather palm. E mailing the production manager, other palms may be available.If you are looking for a pair of totally custom, North American made hockey gloves, Eagle is your ticket. Warrior is also making gloves in Canada, but only have a few options and Portofino Leather (not real leather). Eagle has a variety of materials and designs, will make a pair of discontinued gloves, and will work with you on every little detail. While I am certain Warrior will work with you, I feel that Eagle has superior customer service.If custom is what you need, Gus (the production manager) will lead you in the right path to get your custom gloves going.www.eaglehockey.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
