Have you ever tried gloves were the finger tips did not flex

 

Tried a pair yesterday and i found the feeling really wierd to not be able to flex my finger tips

 

DO you know if there is anyways to just unsew the finger tips to be able to flex the fingertips?

what type of gloves were they

Are you talking about converting one piece fingers to two? Probably not wirth the expense/effort.

Sounds like one-piece fingers. Don't think you can modify those, might as well just buy new gloves.

I agree with Monty, it would not be cost effective to try and turn one-piece fingers into two-piece. I'd assume it could be done, but I've never heard or seen it being done.

Yeah tha'ts what i meant...

 

But is there really a merket for this?

 

I mean who would want less flexibility in a glove?

I've had a few pairs of pro gloves with one piece fingers, not my cup of tea, but it all comes down to PP and what you're comfortable with.

Mostly older gloves or guys who grew up playing with one piece fingers stick with them. For me it's like using an ops and then trying to go back to a woody. Just cant do it...

i had some ancient jofa all-leather gloves with one-piece fingers and i literally took an olfa knife and sliced through the finger at the first knuckle where the break would normally be, it helped a lot. it was a hack-job but it made the gloves useable.

I could have sworn someone posted a pair of one-piece Franchises a long time ago. I thought they might have been Smyth's gloves but he uses the two piece fingers, which is a shock since everything else he uses appears to be old school... hmm. I would leave the gloves how they are, and not butcher them.

Draper's. There was a pair of his Franchises with one piece fingers on here.

My friends proposed me a good deal on his pair of Campoli Pro Stock RBK's, but as soon as i tried them, i knew they were not for me...

 

But i mean, Campoli is not a 40YO hockey player... I Could understand when old players like Draper-Smyth,... use a 1 piece finger, But Campoli is barely 30YO

If anyone wants them, let me know!

Maybe that's why Campoli didn't want them. Haha.
