External Material

The VX1 Pro catcher is made out of a durable leather featuring a sharp graphic. It features QuickSlide accents in high wear areas along with a nylon binding and backing. Vaughn uses a Hex Mesh inner lining and finger stalls for better breathability, comfort and quick drying. The interior of the finger stalls contain an internal grip rail helping goalies get a better grip on the glove allowing them to snap it shut quicker and with ease.

Break Angle

The VX1 Pro catcher uses a 50° palm break with easy flex. It uses a more defined breakpoint allowing for easier closure compared to previous models. This provides easier puck retention and quick flashes of the glove to make those big saves.

Pocket Design

The pocket is designed with a wide span and deep T-trap construction. The reinforced T-top allows for greater stability when making glove saves. It offers two separate sections for the puck to settle into, which can help improve control and prevent the puck from popping out upon impact. The fit of the catcher is designed to be game-ready right off the shelf.

Strapping

The quick adjust webbing wrist strap of the VX1 pro features added padding for better comfort while a neoprene material is used on the inner back hand allowing for good grip and breathability. The internals of the catcher features a inner hand strap for greater puck retention and control, while the velcro elastic strap sits over the back of the fingers controlling the tightness of the back piece.

Cuff Design

The VX1 Pro uses a one-piece cuff and thumb closure to keep goalies protected while on the ice. The cuff features no bindingness and allows for easier puck tracking and retention.

Hand Protection

The hand is protected with a series of foams that are dispersed throughout the glove and still allows for an easy closure. The HD foam in the back over the fingers and finger tip deflecting rail has added HD foams to provide goalies with a catcher that is protective and will keep them secured from impacts while making glove saves.
