Help me decide on which gloves to get.

[Tropheus]

Hey everyone, Just started playing hockey again and I want a decent pair of gloves, I don't have alot of money right now to spend on gloves maybe like $100 canadian.

I have come down to deciding between these two, Please tell me which one is better if you know.

Bauer Vapor X Senior Gloves

"The Bauer Vapor X senior ice hockey gloves are designed to provide you with a combination of durability, comfort, feel, and function. They're are constructed with segmented cuffs, dual-density foams and 3-piece fingers."



Or

Easton Ultra Glove

* Flexible knuckles combined with 2-piece fingers maximize feel
* Wrist Wrap" provides wrist protection and eliminates exposure
* Embossed cuff roll



Any help is very much appreciated, Thanks!

Look for older year models of gloves that are higher class if you have 100$ CNA. I personally love the Easton shape and how low the cut it is so i get great mobility i had the UL wayyyy back when i was younger it fell apart quite fast if you play alot! I currently use the easton air glove now the kind Zetteberg uses and Drury this glove is leather rather than whatever that cheap stuff is and is alot more protective on slashes and the wrist guard can be hidden so it won't bother me and it has grippy stuff i got it for 56$ USD on sale of course by 50%.

-My tip look for (new) older models gloves they provide better overall quality.

im not a fan of the cuff around the wrist on the eastons
I have Vapor XVs and I like them so I think the Vs should be half decent

[Tropheus]

I tried them on and the cuff didn't feel so bad, As for older models well I only really know of Canadian tire and Sportchek so they try to keep new (but not so great) stuff in their stores..I'll look around but still unsure what to get.

Wish there was a store here that sold stuff cheap and good stuff like Vapor XXX stuff, I don't have credit card so can't shop online. :/

You see any good ones here?

Neither. Get Eagles...especially last years stock for that price.

Eagle > *.

I've worn them my whole career, the last pair being the red and chrome special edition. :)

[Tropheus]

They look nice, But I don't think I can find a pair of them.

Also if anyone don't mind answering, Which glove would you pick out of those two if you had to decide?

Tommorow im going to a diffrent hockey store to look around and see what they have, I'll look if Eagles are there.

I don't like wrist wrap. You should try the RBK one or the CCm Vectors.

-You can wrap the velcro off to the side inside it, thus doesn't wrap around my wrist and i get superb mobility.

Dude do not get either of those gloves they are complete crap as are the stores you suggested for hockey gear. Go ask your parents for there credit card and shop with them explain you can get older models that are way better quality and model for the same price! You will regret it.

^ I love there stock and sales.

And google (hockey giant) i think that's mid west coast if your city is more central.

Hope that helped.
