Anyone have any advice in removing shot blockers properly?

 

I'm assuming on gloves ? If so, seem ripper, fold and try to get one tread off, then if you pull hard on the shot blocker the other treads should be easy to remove

Oops yea on gloves. Is the side that isn’t exposed just reversed so basically the same thing just seem rip and it remove the threads carefully?

Yup, it's a pretty easy job, not even 5 minutes per glove

Not the worlds cleanest sewing but I bought a sheet of digital/suregrip GripSkinz l, cut it to the approximate shape of the retail 1S palm overlay that some of the pro guys are using, adhered it and sewed it over a large hole in the palm.

Do you remember the Hudler's I got from you? Would that just be standard Ivory Nash or do you recall? Little palm repair needed

I think it was single layer Nash but it could also be ice micronash

It is very thin. Super soft but that is probably why not quite so durable. If I shot you a text would you be able to tell? Does that place have a bunch of options, didnt navigate too far

Has anybody removed the +1 waist zipper on HP45 pants? 

 

I wear mine unzipped and it tears up my hands when I pull them up.  I'd like to remove it clean with a seam ripper, but not sure if that would destroy the pants.  Otherwise I'll just cut them out with scissors.

Has anyone used George's to replace skate liner? Do they have different options? How was the quality? 

[Golden Gate Sharpening]

Added new double liners and fixed the thumb loops on these BGSU Bonafides.

Well this will definitely end up being a page scroller...

I bought a pair of Warrior/MIA Franchise gloves that had seen better days. Worn out palms, hardened nasty gussets, interior liners were filthy. I knew the project in mind I wanted to complete and wanted the following mods - change the gussets to sponge mesh and tapered at a 1/2” for less wiggle room, digital palms with digital overlays, widen the base of the palm but also tighten up the overall feel of the glove.

Decided the best method to getting most of this done was to do it all myself. Here is the main before and after:







I also did a bunch of cosmetic mods. Will detail in another post here: http://www.sports2k....on/#entry371235

How'd you do that thumb badge?  It's really cool!

[Golden Gate Sharpening]

Wow, those are much better than most of the repalmers out there. It's good to see you actually re-did the binding and didn't just sew over it like everyone else. 

[Dupes]

Very cool.

I had a pair of 14” pro tacks shin pads hat were an inch too long. I can’t stand the jr 13” as they aren’t deep at all or very protective on the sides for adult sized legs. So I cut them down and glued some marine vinyl on the cuts. They seem to fit like a deeper 13”, exactly like I want. Trying them Sunday.
