My new arrival-PICS added!

Disclaimer: This is not an advertisement

After 10 weeks 5 days of agonizing pain, my new set of VK7s arrived. This happened even though I was informed at one point that black jenpro was out of stock and my order would be delayed up to 2 weeks. Credit Marc and Glenn for completing my order and having it my hands only 5 days beyond the quoted wait time.

Specs are as follows:

Pads*
33+3
Black
No logos on front
Extra internal thigh break
Nylon straps + leather boot

Blocker*
Black
No logos on front

Catcher*
Black
No logos on front
Game ready lace
Pro palm

*Extra saves built in to each piece.

Yes I have pics. Scroll down (courtesy of ScJeff)
Thank you.

Mark

Congrats Iron Goalie!

I actually just received mine from a nice man in a blue uniform from usps (which would actually match my new gear)!!

Either I need to grow or I need to get these things "s-shaped" and fast. The quality looks great and I can't wait to work on these tonight...probably would get looked at funny wearing them around the office (they are not Passmore Pro Returns's), hence people would not understand.

cheers and cant wait to see some pics!

Can't wait until Monday put'em on ice.

Those look great. Mine look very similar except in blue and very straight still. What did you do to get that nice S Curve? I dont have any benches at home but would like to get the process started.

The gloves were great right out of the box especially the catcher as it was made a little smaller for my smaller hand and was very easy to open and close!

Thanks FD. The S curve was done by scrunching under a piano bench.

My glove and blocker showed up but the pads haven't yet unfortunately I still have to wait for the pads, I'm guessing its another day to go since, i am assuming, he has shipped them both through fed ex. I'm extremely excited to see my pads, looks like yours are freeking awesome!!

Logos on the side of pads are in black as well. Blocker has a white vk7 logo and catcher has the white "vortek" on the outside of the "t" and white vk7 logo on thumb.

The s-shape was acheived after only one nite stored "scrunched" under the piano bench.

They do look sweet mark I have to get there to see them in person and try them on for a fitting.

How do they feel on? do the close up alot better than you are used to? I would think so just in the way the pads are made I have Zero issues with mine as the pads are designed great..

Congrats man you deserved them babies.
