TheGoalNet Posted December 18, 2017 Author Share Posted December 18, 2017 From a marketing standpoint, I feel like Vaughn misses some layups. You have an entirely new glove for the V8E line... SHOW IT!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murray Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 (edited) It's a petty gripe, but they couldn't have found a less wrinkly set to photograph? cough...also, that VE8 logo looks...well...like, a dick...cough Edited December 18, 2017 by Murray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The part that really bugs me, is that Vaughn is one company that flat out refuses to use any old or retro graphics. I would love a set of new pads with the old V2 swirl graphic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone who wears Vaughn, I have to admit their graphics are the most primitive-looking of all the active brands. Gotta wonder if Vaughn too will ditch leather straps since that seems to be the trend now. Edited December 18, 2017 by Moose75 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like they've been pretty adamant that they believe in the 2 piece cuff. Even the SLR as their new innovative line has the 2 piece cuff. Just the 1 line with 1 piece by default.

home0006 Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Anyone know when they expect the V8 line to be in retail stores (when they'll start putting the V7 stuff on clearance)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ULTIMA Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Historically, Vaughn's had several "lazy" graphics but in the interest of them getting away from the tribal stuff they've been doing for over 10 years, it's still a step in the right direction. And while I like them overall as a company, four and a half pounds is not something to boast about as "UltraLight" when some are making theirs half that weight.

I seem to recall a Brian's Sub2 set that was all cordura, with nylon straps/buckles... which was just ridiculously lightweight. I'll have to see if I can find pictures.
