Max27 Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 I was wondering if i could ask vaughn to clone me a set of Greiss spec gloves. I’ve been using a set of his pro return gloves for over a year now and i like them a lot but they’re beaten to hell. I want to try get them refurbished and have them as a backup set in the future but that’s a different topic. I believe in using what works and if you don’t have an issue with something there’s no need to change it. Besides how beaten up they are, ive had no complaints with the gloves. Could i order custom through Vaughn a Greiss spec V7 XF blocker and PVE glove? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which reminds me...what are the specs on these that you like? If you know what Greiss uses, as in you have the specs listed out, you could just order the gloves with those rather than say Greiss, specifically. They would probably ask you to specifically clarify what specs you want, anyway. There's going to be an upcharge for ordering older models. I think they use current glove base price plus the upcharge. In my experience I think my V6 glove was an $85 upcharge from the VE8 base price. It's possible that they won't add this for V7 stuff since it's only 1 generation back, whereas mine was 2 back. Last I saw they still had V7 customizers on their website. There'll be upcharges for changes off of base specs, too. Say the PVE glove has a nylon wrist strap and you want a leather buckle strap, which is something I always order. That was $35 CDN for me on my VE8 glove order that I made recently (in Canada). You can definitely get Greiss gloves it's just a matter of handling the various upcharges.

As far as i know, he has a stock PVE glove and a stock XF blocker. At least that’s what GGN told me when i sent pictures of them to him I honestly don’t know what in specific i like because i don’t have much to compare it to. I’ve just been unable to find things i dislike besides recently I’ve gotten stingers on every palm shot but with a 1(+) year old glove that was used in the nhl for a part of the season before i used it a whole year it broke down. If i just ordered Greiss spec glove and blocker they would do it though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won't differ too much from what you're using if what GGN told you is true. Have you gone into a local shop to try gloves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had good experience with Vaughn on the phone. You can always call and just talk (the Canada guys are nicer and more revealing than the US guys, it seems). Just say: I have these Greiss gloves. I like X, Y, and Z. I want custom new gloves. How can I best recreate gloves like these with minimal changes to stock gloves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m probably getting new pads soon, still undecided. I have a lot of pads I’m looking at and not sure which is best for me. I’ve been reccomended the g4 senior model by Wack from pure goalie based off what i want in my pads and i think they will be a good fit because i can break them in to my liking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
