They look like they are a good bang for the buck.

I don't think the Gait equipment is the best that is out. I think that he tries to go for look and what kids would think is cool. It needs to be simple and not to extreme. People that buy his stuff are pretty much like the type of person that wants to show himself off.

not to mention he totally bit off the design from the STX Gladiator glove. Not to mention, I am not a fan of either Gait.

as opposed to, oh, I don't know.......WARRIOR?

Warrior is the very definition of sizzle vs. steak/ looks and vanity.

I wouldn't say that Gait/Debeer are the best out there, but they are definitely up there....good heads, gloves, shafts and pads.

Oh, and re. Gladiators....the Insanity's were out before the Glads...so perhaps it is the other way around?

We ordered them for team gloves this year. Our QC Lax rep let us try them out at a tournament this past fall and they're the most comfortable and natural feeling gloves ever! They probably wouldn't be good gloves for a goalie but for field players they're so comfortable, it feels like you don't even have gloves on.

Review of 'em on LaxNation.com

Keith liked them a lot and highly recommends them....they're about 30 bucks cheaper than most other top of the line gloves, right along the price for the defts I believe...

Hey Stickboy...... The "GLADS" as you put it came out in 2003. So can you explain to me why the Debeer nockoffs are new for this yr? Thanks.

I dont find the gladiator a Knockoff at all. They are two seperate gloves and are in two totally different worlds in the aspect of design and motion.
