| 👍 Pros |
|---|
| These gloves are super durable in the palms. Super stiff at first but after a couple of skates, they break in nicely. |
| I’ve bought a few pairs of gloves this season and wasn’t satisfied. These gloves were great out of the box. |
| Old school feel but with updated tech. These are a major upgrade from my Easton 4-roll. |
| 👎 Cons |
|---|
| At first, these were amazing for practices and games but once they fully broke in I would get bruises all over my thumbs. |
| There’s a lot of space in the glove, so players looking for a more snug fit might not like these gloves. |
| Can be kind of bulky, but not bad if you don’t mind a lot of material on your hand. |
