To me it's like saying the same car drives and feels different when you wear different clothes inside the car while driving. The fingerstalls are set up differently. Think of it more like adjusting your seat. Your vehicle essentially functions the same, but the feel of the pedals/steering wheel changes as you get closer or further away.

So the liners "twist" your hand and fingers in certain directions reorienting how they interact with the structure of the glove? So what is the break of the glove itself regardless of the liners @coopaloop1234? Edited February 28, 2022 by seagoal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get a mimicry feel of a 60/90 break, but you're still constrained in a 75. The 60 I could see some use for people, the 90 just felt like the glove and liner fighting among each other that I had a hard time seeing someone feel as if it was worth it. The GT2 glove is still better IMO than the Ritual line. Having the liner sewn in like every other glove just makes sense.

You get less "marshmallow" feel and trade it for a more traditional feel. That being said, it still has that super beefy Warrior feel.

A.YOUNGoalie13 Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Has anyone had a glove reworked in any way by factory mad? I’m curious about costs because my new glove is on the way and I want to make it a single tee from the current double tee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m curious about costs because my new glove is on the way and I want to make it a single tee from the current double tee. I got my CCM Eflex 1 done by Dennis a long time ago. I believe is was around $175 back then but it has probably changed. I will say he does such a great job. Recently upgraded to a Bauer Mach glove. The Mach closes good but nothing compared to the Factory Mad CCM glove. If your glove closes terribly it is definitely worth it, but because my Mach closes decent I have not thought about getting it modded by Dennis. I also recommend getting his floating T, which will cost a little extra. My one its gripe with the Mach is the T is super weak and does not maintain its shape. The Factory Mad T keeps its shape, even now. Also, it may be cheaper if you just have Dennis replace only the T, but if you are going to ship it to him you might as well also have him get your new glove closing great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Late reply to this, but I just picked up a used glove that was redone by Factory MAD. The seller told me it has a custom tee and a new plastic mold for wider coverage. Closure is fingers over palm like a 580, not like other Gnetik 4 trappers it seems. Unfortunately I can't answer your question about cost, but I can say that the glove feels fantastic.

I greatly prefer my G5 with a 60 degree removable liner over my GT2 now. Go figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of all the gloves to have worked by factory mad the seller had to pick the absolute easiest one to close. Seller wasted their money imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I will be the first one to admit that Brian's is the hardest to classify. They call them like 35 and 40 deg breaks. Darling spec is supposed to be a 5500 and based off Sub Zero (now Optik) and not GNetik. My request for a 580 style Glove was also built off an Optik 2 and definitely closed differently and more like a 580. So funny enough I just a True PX3 600 as I felt it was the closest thing I could find to my original Gnetik glove that I have been using since 2013 but once I got out on the ice with it my opinion changed on that right away as the way the pocket sits is completely different. I'm going to have to give it a few more skates to get adjusted but the hand positioning in my stance feel sway different. That being said I was still able to catch with it nicely and it swallowed pucks up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rfmusso Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 Apologies if this one has been asked and answered before but does the glove’s T impact closure or is it more personal preference? I’m looking at ordering one of the Vaughn V9 XPs with the 70 Degree break and the options are stock double T, SLR Single T, and 7000 Style Single T. Currently in a V9 with the double T.
