Nice collection - we have a similar setup all around. I basically have the exact same Varlamov Av's pro return glove that bought from Sideline Swap - two-piece, break, coloring, graphic... If you've had for a while, how's the closure been? Mine has the "game ready" tag but it must have been beefed up in the palm. After 6 months of moderate break in I sent it in to Dennis at Factory MAD. Snappy now but definitely had some struggles prior.

My Varly is a practice glove, but it doesn't have big thick felt instead it has multiple layers of d30 in the palm.  I have no issues closing the glove.

Here is my current setup,  Itech 961 restored by newimagegoaliemask, CCM extreme flex 2 pads,  Vaughn Bibeau pro return ve8 chesty, reebok xlt blocker, Varlamov pro return catcher, which seems like a 5500 clone, CCM 12A pants, Bauer Supreme knee guards, Brown jock, Bauer Reactor 6000 with Howies laces and Step blades and a Senators jersey my brother gave me.

If  only I was an employee....

Here are my old Itechs fully restored by New Image Goalie Mask.  The 961 was restored last year and 9601 I just got back yesterday.  Both came back gorgeous from Ray at New Image.  I really like the single center bar cage, and they can really take a beating without bending!
