One question I frequently get from other parents is: Where did you get those gloves for your son/daughter? The brand is EAGLE if you haven't noticed from the many hockey pictures. A quick short answer is they are the best gloves made for hockey. This is a pretty bold statement when you consider the massive numbers of pro hockey players using gloves from other manufacturers such as Reebok, Easton and Bauer just to name a few. Unfortunately the Eagle gloves you can buy today are NOT the ones we use. EAGLE was bought out by Vaughn a couple years ago and while the logo is the same the product isn't quite exactly the same. I'm lucky in that I stocked up with LOTS of gloves and I also am willing to buy custom versions of the old ones that EAGLE will still make (for a price$$$$$$$).
Eagle today is now chipping at the market in more than just gloves. They've recently launched a new stick line as well as hockey accessories in addition to new models of gloves. I'll reserve judgement on those as we see how they work. Eagle was built originally on a mission of uncompromising excellence in a hockey glove and based on the 7 pairs we have here thing are great. I may just buy a new pair and see if that fit and comfort of the past are back. If not its pay the big bucks and have the old ones custom made.
