Pro Gauntlet Are They Any Good

- Finally got to review a pair of Pro Gauntlets! They are a friend's, but I have had them for nearly a week now. At the time of the video I had them for 4 days, and what I have in the video, is still my same thoughts weeks later.
The video should help people still deciding if they want to, or when to purchase these gloves.
Enjoy the video, I hope this helps.

Once you have index finger free, I feel like it;s a steep precedent of diminishing returns for every other finger you articulate.
I feel like that could maybe save some cost and make the gauntlets more protective by joining the ring and pinky fingers together,
Try running some drills with your pinky and ring fingers taped together and see what it’s like. I’ll do it as well, and perhaps we can compare notes.

Sure, Are you going to do yours in the gauntlets or out?
@@iamscoutstfu out of the gauntlets, my kit doesn’t yet have gauntlets. Our club has clamshell loaners.
Anything ever come out of this?
After they make a smaller size, I will definitely be making the purchase.
Nice. I have average hands, that they fit me. The owner has smaller hands, and his fingers pop out of the caps.
they might've taken your advice, I think they changed the ties to rubber straps on the facebook update
Yup been following the changes, and I know they have watched it too :)
Any long term update in terms of durability etc? Asking because they now have the medium size available and prices are soon going up quite a bit in March.
Mine Held up better than my friend's, but it is starting to get loose in areas. A couple of the nice finger joints pop out of place mid fight. I had to tape my fingers tips, as they do not say in with the little overlaps provided, but I had to do that with the Infinities too (btw I tend to use the Infinities more). I wanted a little more heavy work with them before I follow up.
Could the bands that hold the fingers inside the shells be replaced? What about the ones on the sides of the fingers?
Yes, but as I mentioned the hole is super small. The main point is for the price they charging for these, users should not have to worry about this...and they seem to come off very frequently, which will just annoy the crap out of us.
Infinity vs Pro Gauntlet? I already ordered the Infinity Gloves custom size for longsword because of your last review.
Next Review will address that! Infinity for the price, really good, really protective, for the price...only thing that separates them from the Pro is looks, and engineering imo. Infinite's also might be more protective for the fingers, with just a little bit less mobility. Video coming about this in a couple weeks.
@@colleptic I would be very interested what is under the the gloves, if that is not already the next video's topic. The Infinity looks to have poron between the outer shell and glove, which I assume mitigates and distributes strikes to hand. I eagerly await that the next review.
Ah yes, I will talk about that in my next comparo video, but the inner glove has most of the inner padding, I should have mentioned that.
I ordered infinity gloves in february and have had no word on what stage of production they are in. They said 2-4 months. It’s been 9 months! I could have grown a baby in a test tube in this amount of time.
@@ScottGrow117 I purchased custom sized Infinity gloves after Stacey's 2nd follow up video on these gloves. Purchased on Aug 18th, and arrived at the US distributor on October 20th. I await their delivery to my front door. I will use and abuse them, maybe post a raw video because I do not have video editing skills. I purchased the Infinity Gloves through HEMA Supplies. Legit US dealer of these gloves.
Who's the guy with the blue skin? The owner of the gloves?
Heh...it is a Ice Elf camera assistant.
I thought ice elves were extinct...
since I have large hands they don't fit me. Sadly their price put them out of range for me. The infinity gloves cost not even half the prize and they fit my hands.
That aside, i'd be lying if I said I'm not excited to see the progauntlet come out in my size and who knows maybe they will drop in prize in a few years.
Yup, my hands are medium and fit "mostly" fine. Infinities are nearly a 1/3rd the price, so ya, go with those for now if you do not want to drop the $$$.
Do you already have it Stacey?
NO! Still waiting for mine, only been able to use other people's...been too long imo regardless of the circumstances. I emailed them a couple weeks ago for an update.
@@colleptic Same with a friend of mine who order it since november/december 2019... i already used up/broken more than 1 glove since then
If you didn’t fight you Meyer sidesword like an Italian, you wouldn’t have problems with intricate tie downs rubbing on your cross guard.
Heh funny, though it has ring guards and a ricasso. Plus I am not limited to one system.
@@colleptic gotcha. I was just takin the piss out of ya is all.
