Did you end up placing the order? I would absolutely get the segmented shoulder floaters. They're exactly what they sound like, segmented so they stay more contoured to your body. Helps with mobility. Nope didnt order till tomorrow. They were on vacation last week so they said send it in the following week. I am going segmented like you said because it was what all the ones I tried on were. I love the way this VE8 fits and plays like just a bit too small (hes making the arms longer than normal) and I want one that will last a long time even if its a bit heavier. Any other input is welcomed, Im still new to ice goalie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same goes for the lifts, fuck those too. I would add the suspender straps on the shoulder floaters if I were you. I don't tuck my Brown but I do wear my suspenders over the c/a and I use the TGN suspenders and straps from....shit I forget the name of the company...anyways, they're a nice touch lol. Some modifications I had spec'd to my Brown quite a few years back were a larger dip to the back harness. That helped to avoid having the back pad poking up into the back my mask. I also had them make an additional gap at both seams where the side panels meet the main belly panel. I did that so I could feed my suspenders through the gaps and run them up over the c/a. Kind of similar to what Hank has done to his c/a but its not as drastic of an opening. I think I have pictures of all of this in the Brown thread. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaveByRichter35 Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Oh and I also had a strap added to the back harness too, similar to a fight strap. Only difference is it has a clip so the female piece is sewn to the back pad and the male piece is attached to my shorts. This keeps the c/a down in the back and up in the front. Feels more secure to me this way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaveByRichter35 Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Shit. I just noticed that none of my pictures are working anymore. I'll have to either find them and rehost them or take new ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaveByRichter35 Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Oh and I have also since modified my elbow floaters to make them a bit more mobile too. I am a self admitted Brown fanboy but I absolutely hate their elbow floater design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
