bunnyman666 Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 They simply don’t exist in the retail world. Thank G’d the unis I am putting them with were from the era that nylons did not match from company to company and literally Cooper SK2000 helmets were kelly green, CCM HT-2 were closer to a hunter green and the Jofas were a bright green. Pantones? We don’t need no stinking Pantones! And the companies were stubborn that reds, greens and blues would not match other manufacturers reds, greens and blues. Just the way it is! Kari Takko wore Tacklas with a singular yellow stripe before the black breezer days. Uniforms before the mid ‘90s weren’t necessarily uniform... Seriously, though. Yes- green is not a commonly used colour, I get it! The Devils used a darker green that nearly matches the Minnesota Wild’s green on their Christmas tree uni breezers. The Hartfolina Whalecanes had a nice, kelly green that almost matches too well with the uniforms. Ugh. I know people that make shells and breezers custom would do it for me, but I just don’t want to spend the extra $$$. I thought I had a winner when I ordered a Bauer Nexus girdle shell, as it showed to be Whalecanes green on my screen. Nope, darker than my CCM pantshell that was known as Wild green First world problems, I know. Short of hoping that prostockhockey.com has Whalecanes shells and they go on sale, my only hope is to call Eagle hockey, isn’t it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naz Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Friend of mine's son plays for the North Island Silvertips minor hockey. I can see where they get their shells from if you want? Possibly even arrange to grab one for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate your offer of a solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunnyman666 Posted May 12, 2019 Author Share Posted May 12, 2019 I ended up buying a plain kelly green shell. I may put a white stripe on it; I may not. Kelly green just is sharp and I hope Seattle uses Kelly Green in their colourway. It is awesome!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude I've been wanting to, badly, for a long time now. There is just so much shit going on the homefront now. Stuff for the house takes precedent over my hockey desires. It is what it is at this point. I've been working more overtime lately and its just keeping us status quo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky Pucker Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Too bad @SaveByRichter35 and @coopaloop1234; if you dudes were at the "let's combine finances; what could go wrong?" stage of your relationship, you'd be waiting for your new green-accented custom set right now.
