Beauties, well done and great color scheme. Btw, is the "extra break in time" an additional charge? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea what an anchor or floating anchor T is. In addition to what @dstew29 said, the T is also a lot skinnier in the pocket, so it creates more lace area to swallow pucks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like a standard T but with rigid material to better keep the pocket open i.e. deeper pocket, less pop-outs, etc. Yep, exactly what @dstew29 said. It's the Brian's "Anchor T", just floating. You can see the Anchor T branding and how it is floating. It's a spec I stole off Garret Sparks when he was with the Marlies. Was living in Toronto at the time, and Marlies games are 10 000x cheaper than Leafs games, so I went to a bunch and noticed it. I'm actually not sure if you can get floating double T/Single T? But I imagine you can. I ordered it on my Optik (which was my first custom Brian's glove) and it makes a HUGE difference. Not only with puck retention, but with closure as well (as the T isn't laced in). The only negative about it is if you get a shot straight into the lace, you might not always feel it. Happened to me a bunch of times where I didn't know where the puck went, and it was in the pocket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference in closure is HUGE between a stock glove and this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bank Of 'Murica All Brian's gloves come with automatic account withdrawals everytime you play. It's the BOA strapping system Brian's uses. https://ingoalmag.com/gear/ingoal-reviews-brians-new-optik-line/ They showcase it in there. It's used in tons of sports.

ThatCarGuy Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 (edited) Alright @coopaloop1234, you win. You have ducts, Vaughn pads and whatever that blurry thing that's out of focus in that picture. You win. I failed to include a washer and a dryer. Can we make it a new rule that all new gear pictures must have a household appliance in frame? Edited January 22, 2019 by ThatCarGuy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

motowngoalie Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Mail day Pasquale pro return stick, matching pants are with Dennis at Factory Mad being repaired. Also, Michel is shipping my mask today and JF Aumais is wrapping it. Can't freakin' wait to hit the ice. I've never owned new matching equipment before, so this is pretty surreal. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
