That's right.  If I remember correctly they charge $45 / piece, so $135 for a full set.

That's bizarre. I work in the apparel decoration biz, it literally takes about 30 seconds to create text embroidery files (in most cases the operator can do it right from the machine). 

Anyone get a deal on Sr G5 gear (non-pro) worth sharing? Looking at GM but wondering if there's a better option out there...

I need one or 2 of these can you share the link?

Looks like one of these

Great colors and marketing strategy. That sweater is beautiful, and think of the setups we'll get to see (as long as Rollie the goalie doesn't get hired). I don't love the stylized S and Kraken is a little gimmicky, but it's no worse than Wild. 

Man, I've got some serious FOMO on this line. I feel like selling my G4's, but I can't really justify it with how little I've used them. Probably wait for the G6's I guess...

As a side note, is anyone stocking the "classic" colorway? Red/white and royal/white look awesome in classic on the stock gear in this series. The Hockey Shop had it up on their site, but the pages have all been taken down.

These are a bit before I got into gear, but my lasting memory of them is Burrows "slay the dragon" goal against Crow.  Hopefully a "Larceny appreciation thread" isn't next...

Crazy glove save pic that the official photographer caught during driveway league play today; it’s so good, it almost looks staged...  

@coopaloop1234 - was about to head into action today, and remembered your comment above. Decided to put on the jock today. Wouldn’t you know it,  my kid hit me right in the pills (which we laughed at - but wouldn’t have otherwise) So thanks, man; even the most basic, obvious advice is worth giving - and taking. 

Dude, that sweater!! Beautiful

Has anyone ordered a 2nd mask from Michel without sending in a head mould?  If you know which mould you already use, are you comfortable enough to order it again "off the shelf"?

I ordered my first mask without a mold, I just sent my head measurements to him. Turned out perfectly.

Finally got some time to use the customizer, this is the most versatile Warrior graphic thus far. I love that you can design up or across the pad.  Something simple and blocky like this is pretty cool. Kinda reminds me of Nicole Hensley's Brian's design.

Where do you see the 360 viewer?

On the sticks.

The new customizer landing page doesn't seem to be optimized for mobile, some of the product selections are cut off. My only beef so far. Adding the stick customizers to the same page makes sense (rather than having them on the main Warrior site as before) and the 360 view a la Bauer is a nice feature.

Nice setup! Is that stick one of Lehner's from his time in Buffalo?

I think a different B company came up with this one... how does battram not get sued for this?

I'd be embarrassed as the owner of these gloves too. It's like putting a BMW emblem on a Dodge Avenger. When Brian's will literally build whatever you want, why would you go for a less expensive knockoff......

So awesome! I got my 5 y/o out on the backyard rink last month, but he didn't love it  We'll see how his younger brothers turn out, hopefully one of em picks it up.

Man. I want whatever is in that box

Damn, me too! It's been exactly a year since my G4's showed up in a box like that. Almost makes me wish I'd waited...

Mail day  Custom Kova neck guard. 2.5" neck height, extra gel protection in the neck.

I'd love to attend one of these! Bandits has done a few beer league clinics in the Detroit area, but I've never been able to make it. I'd definitely be interested in this.

@Kirk3190 That mask looks interesting. Can you at least answer these few questions before the official media release:

- One pro model or Pro/SR/JR models?

- ABS or Fiberglass or Composite mix?

- Made local or overseas?

- Chin cup or sling?

Not sure on the other questions, but it looks like there's 3 models for sr, 2 for jr, and a youth mask: http://www.hecc.net/certprods.html

Saw this on FB the other day, these look pretty sweet: https://www.goaliesplus.com/p/graf-pro-g-cowlingless-goalie-skates/

So my team colors are green and black with a splash of orange.   Any opinions on which set you guys prefer?

The first one looks great! Also, $50.00 towards your purchase if you PM me the link to the customizer

If you look closely it's not actually a gradient pattern, just a shadow.

Ahh, okay! I wondered if it was just an effect also.

The burning question: What's it gonna take for @TheGoalNet to finally demo some Warrior gear?  If GGN got G4's, it's only fair..... #TGNSpecG5 

The gradient pattern on the blocker thumb has me wondering if they're going to start incorporating printed graphics.

Does anyone know the break angle of a TPS XLite?

I love that glove and I can't find anything else that feels like it.

I don't know, however if you get in touch with Dave Wilcox at Kenesky, he should be able to help you. I believe he designed most of the TPS line.

Are you going to update this? Looking into this unit.

I second the above.

Sorry for the delay! Just updated the review with further thoughts/info.

@TheGoalNet does the 2" height interfere at all with mobility/looking down? I'm ordering a neck guard from Kova, and I'm trying to figure out height. Ideally, I'd like to maximize protection and go 2.5" in height, but I want to avoid that "too-tight necktie" feeling and maintain full movement.
