  1. Looks a lot fappier than mine. But mine has been sitting in the room for 2 weeks.
  2. Comes with the territory of buying gear to give customers feedback. Atleast I used the 581 longer than I used my machs last year.
  3. Mine is pro palm. Total custom pro. Baked twice and 2+ skates a week since late July... even did ccm's tied bake that I had to do for the 20 retail gloves we have in stock.
  4. Glove presentation was also another factor. The 581 would present as open and stay open like I can the regular 580. Oddly enough the 581 almost felt like I had to pull the palm to the fingers and was a lot more effort to close. Fingers crossed that my ccm 580 pro palm is as buttery as my true pro palm.

  5. What size skates do you wear? Last time I got my feet scanned it said suggest custom due to width and volume. As for the 581, after using it 2+ times a week for almost 2 months I didn't like the stiffness, lack of finger stalls, and the t. I much rather the lobster claw than a mutated 590/580
  6. Not when it's for the better. I likes my 2 piece but the tf9's were killing my feet and I was tired of waiting on my custom 2 piece to come in. But the 581 was just not to my liking.
  7. I received my set July 23rd. Went back to my true 580 last week. Also went back to my true one piece skates and toe laces
  8. Was quoted 10-12 weeks. Currently at week 8.
  9. See!!! I made that comment about the cross form strap as well. Half tempted to send my ccm 580 and 581 out when it gets in and have a shop swap the cross form strap into the 580. But have since gone back to my true 580 while waiting for my ccm 580 and all my issue have resolved.
  10. The glove is in fact a 2 piece. Took this photo this morning.
  11. Tgn had them make him a 90 optik2.
  12. I ordered my 580 the week before delivery just Incase I didn't like it. Mine should be in by the end of next month.
  13. I have heard the rumors of a 90* Brian's, and they have done them in the past. I'll try to track down a 70xp. I have access to a 6.1 e+.
  14. I will agree that Bauer gloves feel different. I will also say retail/custom ccm 580 will feel different than each other depending on which assembly line they came out of. My only gripe with Bauer gloves is they are tight along the back of my fingers when closed.
  15. I have been in a 590 break since 2004 and wanted to give a 580 a try last year and won't look back. It does take some adjustment though. I will only use a 580 style from now on. For what its worth, the newly publicly released vapor 90 is almost identical to a lefevre 580 minus some things, but the feel is spot on. Hopefully by the end of next month I'll be able to post a true, ccm, and Bauer 580 side my side and their closures.
  16. Knots add slack more like the hybrid version (true hybrid, custom hybrid went to full elastic cord with spacing). No knots would be like the original pro lace with no preset slack.
  17. I'm pretty sure Elvis is in a once piece glove. I took the video real quick after a skate but I can't remember for certain. I'll get more pics at training camp.
  18. Guess it just means I'm not 10ply? Pro palm and not a issue.
  19. I requested a px. But being off hand they sent me a 9x3 which happened to match my ccm set. But the vibration through the stick is terrible compared to the ccm prolite.
  20. I might have to start a channel . Definitely going to do a write up on ef6 vs px3 pads when lever my true order actually gets in.
  21. I have about 3 weeks at 2-4 times a week in it. I will say. My pro palm has been well padded, compared to what hockeyreviews posted. I purposely took palm shots in warmups the other day to test the protection.
  22. I mean it's unfortunate to spend the $$$ to try something new and not like it. But that's part of the retail game. I am fortunate enough to have a part time job at a store to get discount. But the replacement glove is full price.
