Any feedback on Exodus II gloves?

[darthblabla]

So I was thinking about gettin Exodus II gloves, but there's no real review to be found... Just some quotes like; Awesome, unbelievable etc. Not really helpfull.

Is there someone that has really tried these gloves or owns them? I really like to know how good they play and how they compare to their predecessors.

I've never tried them but are you sure you want to spend 170ish on some gloves?

I would save some money and check out some mac daddies,k18s,dynasties.

Because I can't imagine that the Exodus' can be any better than any of the above because the only reason it is that expensive is because Mikey Powell endorses it.

Personally, I think that the whole mikey powell collection is just overpriced decent gear.

okay first of all "theE3man" don't post if you are not going to give feedback

darth- i have the gloves. got a really good deal on them so i bit at the chance. they are hands down the best gloves i have ever used. these replaced my macs and i'm not looking back. the glove is tight fitting, soft palms, very protective glove. i will say that if you want to save some cash, go with the kings. very close in feel but there are minor differences. i would recommend them 100%.

St1, what are the differences between them and kings, because I'm returning my gloves and getting kings or e2s...

[st1acrosse99]

kings have a attached cuff...e2's dont.

the fingers are a little tighter on the e2's

lighter then kings

i think that they move a little better, but thats because there is no wrist cuff.

hands down my best purchase of lacrosse equipment, except the triumph helmet i picked up

[sharpshooterFTW]

i did a semi review on them, if u search u can probably find it

[stratswerve04]

e2's dont have enough padding in my opinion...thats why i got kings...my friends e2s were wimpy...

ST1, how durable are the palms? I have a diamond worn down from a season of use and I'm wondering how it will treat these gloves.

[bigdale9]

diamonds dont wear down the gloves in the first place so they should be fine

i love my exo IIs. i would never spend 170 on gloves but i got mine for 140. they are great gloves.

I bought a pair for 18 dollars. I sold them for 155 because I couldn't even squeeze my hand into them. I'm sure if they fit me they'd be awesome, but my big ol' hands aren't made for them.

I picked up a pair of MLL e2's a couple of months back.

Despite the naysayers, I found the protection easily on par with the kings. The wrist-strap is a love/hate thing, its saved my wrists a few times now so I have no complaints. One thing I didn't like about the kings is that the wrist protector was shorter than the defts and it kinda felt a little pointless. Since the E2's guard isn't attached, you wont have to worry about it as you can just strap it to your arm and it basically becomes an extension to your elbow guards.

On a side note to the padding, the E2's make macdaddies feel like you're wearing blocks of Styrofoam on your hands. I never really thought flexibility was a big deal with gloves until I tried on a friends macs after wearing my E2s, but there is a big difference. (Not hating on warrior before I get swamped by fanboys.)

When you first get the glove it will feel very tight, but you really have to spend a lot of time wearing them in. After a while they'll fit quite comfortably, just stick with it.
The palms are pretty decent, although made from a different material to the kings (as far as I could feel) and are still pretty grippy and flexible. My only worry I guess is that if you have a lot of tape on your stick then they'll wear down quicker than the older gloves like the defts.
To be honest though, they're grippy enough not to need tape anywhere except the odd ring here or there.

Yea, they are expensive and yea they are MP endorsed but they did the job and did it well.

*edit* Just realised how old this thread is. Meh.

everyone has describe the gloves well and i love them but if you want them over other gloves for the slash guard don't get them because the slash guards are very unconfortable i believe maybe if you wore sleeves they would be okay but i don't recomend the slash guards but 110%recomend the gloves
