Hello everyone! Longtime lurker, first time poster!
I had a question in regards to pad sizing. I currently own two sets of pads. One is a V4 pro spec set (was a goaltending prospect for Boston once upon a time) and a regular s29 set.
Now the Vaughns fit great, and I love them but I wanted to try a single break leg. I ended up ordering online the Bauer pads and I am excited to try them out next season.
Now my question is in regards to sizing. I was worried the bauers would be far too small for me, as the Vaughn's are listed as 38 inch! I'm guessing this means they're closer to 36+2 if they used modern style of sizing.
Now the Bauers are XL, and Bauer lists them as 36+1... however as in the attached image they are identical in size! I was pleasantly surprised!
My question for everyone here is what exactly could cause this discrepancy? I've read that Vaughns sometimes shrink due to age, but the goalie that had these pads before was even shorter than I am, and his ATK was shorter.
Thanks again if anyone can help answering this mystery!
