  1. It has to be a stubborn comfort thing... With all the advancements in materials and strapping, some guys are still needing 6 leather straps... You think with all the ice they get they could demo and use the newer stuff to get comfortable with it... Same applies to Anderson's Optiks and most guys wearing CCM

    5'9" with a 16.5" ATK... I'm a 33 in most pads. I think the 1S sit high and play very straight. Similar to how a Premier pad and an EFlex pad will sit different on the leg. The seller had a 17.5" and landed dead center
  3. Awesome thanks... I might have to grab a set of these from @TGC-Rance when they have their annual pro return pant sale
  4. How does the Fit system in these relate to the traditional CCM sizing? I’m currently in large CCM pro returns

    @TheGoalNet very interesting about the weight... I’ve always wanted to try a set of Koho/RBK/Premier pads. In the past the weight along with the open leg channel turned me off. With their new strapping systems and weight reduction I’d love to demo a set. The whole boot angle thing as well might be an issue. I know I’d likely wear a 32 in these tho

    No. I couldn't make the sizing work. If they were going to be a long term set I would have snapped them up. @TGC-Rance mentioned about moving the knee block if it was a keeper set

    I ended up passing. Had a good chat with @TGC-Rance and the sizing wouldn't work. Thanks for the heads up all

    That's the major upside to this... It would be a straight trade. So I'm not out anything. Durability would be a concern but JRZ made I'm guessing they'll stand up better than retail models.

    Looking for some quick 1S feed back... I have a chance to swap my RGT pro set (all white) for a JRZ made 1S set. 2 things worry me... Stiffness and sizing. I wear a 33+1.5 and the 1S set is medium (34+1). The set is a WHL pro return and are supposed to have a "softer core." Any pros or cons of the 1S gear would be appreciated

    @TheGoalNet Any indication on the weight? I know traditionally the Premier line had been super heavy by most standards, but hope springs with the news that the EFlex 3 line has had significant weight reductions as well

    That grey piece, ribbed for pleasure?

    Is it just me or does that knee landing look really stiff?

    @coopaloop1234 I tie the top 2 eyelets for my pants into the nylon loop (on the belly of the C/A) on my CCM pants. Then I run the external belt above the bottom elastic for the heart guard. If that doesn’t make sense let me know

    @dstew29 I'd love to see Vaughn bring back the V2 swirl... You should contact a retailer and see if they'll do it on a custom set

    Lot of rumors circulating that custom printing from Bauer is coming in the fall/later in the year at the retail level
  16. I've been doing this with my RGT's as well... Can't wait to get my custom set tho... If only someone at Warrior had some pull
  17. I'm sure @Kirk3190is the best fit to answer this officially... But velcro will always eventually wear out. I have it on my vest for work and the fuzzy (loop) side always wears quicker. But I'm using it 5-6 times a day, for a 12 hour shift. Strapping for the pads is only happing 1-2 times, a few times a week max. And I'm sure they're using high grade commercial hook and loop velcro. All of which I'm assuming was wear tested for months before the product is launched. Plus who keeps their gear long enough to wear out the velcro!?!?!?!
