Passau Hockey - Vintage Set (pre review photos)

Leg pads look good. Still question the glove and blocker. Have any pre-review thoughts on weight, craftsmanship? Certain things just look a bit off.

Actually quite the opposite syn... The glove is really well thought out, extras on there that no one has done before. Like the finger and thumb loops, have an adjustable velcro in case you need to adjust it (as I have from time to time). There's two hand straps, and a wrist strap, individual finger slots, etc. Really conforms to the hand well.

Blocker is a blocker, with the vintage holes. More detail to come.

So far they look as well constructed as any pad I've had. The Jenpro isn't thin like some of the "senior" level pads I've had in the past.

Time will tell, I'm using them tonight, and recording it. So it'll be as in-depth of a review as I've done so far, most likely much deeper.

Sweet.. looking forward to it!

The one thing I would change at first notice is make the blocker bindingless. That's probably what you noticed, was the binding wasn't perfectly straight etc. But that's the downside to bindings on blockers, and bindingless isn't cheap or easy to make or everyone would be doing it.

Definitely what I noticed on the blocker. If they can make a bindingless glove, though, it stands to reason that a bindingless blocker should be about the same, right?

oh that set looks siiiick! love the colors!

I love the first picture. A big cardboard box. It's like a Christmas present.

No doubt. That would be like the best Christmas present in history!
