GoalieGuy101 Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 I’m looking to get a new Vaughn glove that has a 600/35 degree break (like a baseball glove). I tried the VE8 thinking it would have this closure but it definitely does not. What would be the newest glove Vaughn has made that would have this break?

southpawtendy48 Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 closest would probably be the new v9. if you wanted to go custom you could probably order that older model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoalieGuy101 Posted February 28, 2020 Author Share Posted February 28, 2020 I want something that isn’t like the VE8. Is the V9 supposed to be different? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puckstopper Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Which VE8 did you try on? The one piece glove is closer to a 590 break but the 2 piece is very close to a 600. You won't find closer from Vaughn in recent memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwarnar Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 @seagoal is our resident Vaughn dude... I know he loves the 590, and I believe he has the one piece XP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just feels very off to me, nothing like any 600 break I’ve tried before. I didn’t know if the older two piece pro v elite carbon was more like a 600 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dualshowman Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Have you tried any of the recent 5500-style mitts like the SLR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dualshowman Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Boy, I wouldn't think it would be 'very different' from a 5500, but new gloves always feel terrible to me. I have mentioned prior that I strongly believe that the 5500 and it's non-laced break descendants tend to break in differently for everyone. If you want a new 5500, Vaughn will accommodate you. I recommend the V6 2200 mitt - all of the benefits of a 5500 with none of the weird migrating break or finger curl maladies, plus a laced break, great internal strapping options, and an excellent backhand guard that completely opens up for airing it out. Typical Vaughn lightness, but I have not had any stingers in mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
