It's used, has a bit of damage but nothing that can't be patched or shoe-goo'ed. It's a large and definitely an evolution of the H5. I like how the shoulder floaters fall to the body as opposed to my Mckenney 870 that sits high and a bit too boxy for my taste. There's a real upgrade in the arms, really thick there. Fairly light and mobile, somewhat comfy for an old stiff unit. It will need a Hockey Wash visit before it sees the ice. I understand the low collar they are known for. My H5 was similar. It doesn't show much in a crouch but I'll have to watch out when in my b-fly. Thankfully I wear a Maltese. Looking forward to testing it in the new year. Just a quick heads up. I wore it tonight and I'm loving it!! So much closer to the body, better rib protection and so much more streamlined than my Mckenney 870, I was able to peek over my shoulders no problem. Minus some needed strapping adjustments, and maybe a slight nip and tuck on the upper rib wrap for comfort (I have a large rib cage), it worked perfectly. Wish I could find one of these babies brand new. Isn't the CCM AB PRO the exact same thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichMan Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Here is a side by side look at my TGC P1 and my Mckenney 870, without and with jersey. *Disclaimer: Don't mind my stunningly rugged good looks, lolll, been sick with a cold for the past week and a half.

SaveByRichter35 Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 The P1 is what a c/a should look like. I didn't like the way it fit me when I tried it. I wish my Brown was as streamlined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
