I'm a first time coach and I'm shopping around for equipment orders, mainly gloves, looking for the best deals. Can anyone reccomend a company or store that you've done business with and would give positive feedback for? I had been involved with Bacharach a few years back before the whole Great Atlantic thing but wasn't impressed with the service at all (took much longer than they promised and had some other issues with the products and customer service). So I don't want to go right back to them at this point.

We're looking mainly at gloves but if they have good deals will go into other areas of equipment and apparel. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

i think the best thing you can do is contact Warrior, Brine, STX, or Gait directly and see what they can do.

I know Warrior has the custom shop where you can customize colors but to get your logo on them you need a minimum of 24 pairs. Here's the website. www.warriorlacrosse.com
in the top right corner click on custom shop.
Hope that helps

We went through laxpower and got glads last season for $80 apiece. We did have some trouble with their billing department though, but I'm not really sure who's fault it was. They also weren't the color we were looking for. I'd suggest going around to all the major companies and seeing what price you can get 'em for.

EDIT: Dang, not laxpower, laxworld. I get my lax(blank)'s confused....

Is it going to be middle school, hs, or college?

I have purchased through Harrow in the past and they have been very good to my team. In fact, I need to call Gail on Tuesday to talk about this year's season.

I second that. Harrow has some great customer service people, and if you buy in bulk, u can get siginificant discounts. We recently ordered custom gloves from them and got a 30% discount on each pair

Hey guys, I ordered all my team equipment from laxstore.com. I have used them for the past 3 years and they have really helped. If you are shopping around, they have an instant quote system that I just found out about tonight, They have a ton of products. They have helped out my team quite a bit, check them out.

I'd say laxstore.com. They have an instant quote system now, and a seemingly fail-proof order tracking system. I'd go with them. Great prices too.
