Closure was questionable considering the palm seal, odd shape of the glove and the stiffness that wasn't even warranted because despite it being a pro palm there's a gap in the padding towards the pinky finger side of the glove which I received a couple bruises through. Warrior gloves haven't let me down yet so why change what works. I'm far from the first to appreciate this combo. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing it's the G5? I tried one on today and although the closure was butter, I don't like the shape. It seems built long compared to my GT which looks rounder. Maybe it's just me.

Now you need a family pic GT 1 was also a 70 degree break where as the Ritual line and the GT2 are both 75. It's quite a different feel and I'm with you on this one Rich, I much preferred the GT1 over the GT2/RG5 gloves. But they're close enough where it's not too alien.

Chenner29 Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 Varly spec pants from Vaughn Dropped down to a size L with a medium inseam (shorter pant in the thigh), and added the suspender tabs on the inside Forgot to ask them to put a fight strap loop on the inside, guess I'm doing some sewing this weekend 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either gloves feel nice in my hand and difference is very minute. But the T is much longer on the G5 in my eyes, which I'm not a great fan off. The GT glove looks and feels small on my hand and that suits me well. Better glove control for me. I am eyeing the GT2 though to match my pads.

These look identical to what the pros are in but it's difficult to tell what they are without the branding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pants I have were from his Colorado days, so I believe they were the larger dimensions. We went over the details (Medium is 2 inches shorter than an XL) and what else I wanted, took my card # and address and then the wait began. EDIT: tag on the bag says P7800, they look pretty damn close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been great after the initial adjustment from a GT1. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seagoal Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 (edited) Played a really fun pickup game early this evening against a really old school stand-up, super aggressive goalie almost a couple decades older than me. He uses intermediate pads and I got a kick out of our pads side by side. His are so damned squishy it's hilarious. I have always loved the V3 graphic for all it's convolution . This guy was great to watch. That width difference though...oof. Edited September 4, 2021 by seagoal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recently asked them about ordering such custom pants and they said that I'd have to go via an official supplier because they don't sell directly. Also, what did those end up costing you? Vaughn custom pants are quite high on my gear bucket list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because of that, I'm not sure if I'm allowed to divulge what I paid as it seems like I got a bit of help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
