Yes that is correct. Sorry just didn’t want to make it even easier for bots to crawl and spam me. I do believe so @concertman1971 was using those with the frame. Most pads besides the Belgards should fit. Yes - the overall concept is completed but still working through testing the internals.

Limited quantities expected to be available in early-mid April with additional units expected in late April-mid May. It will be frame only. There is no presale planned but if there is interest in purchasing one... anyone can email me derek@ and when that product is a few days away from public release I'll send over a pre-order link.

I realize I am repeating myself from another thread so my apologies but... The All-Star FM25, +POS (original), Honig's (original) and GR8 Call pads all share the exact same internals and in some cases exterior textiles.

That is because the original +POS, GR8 Call and Honig's (not sure about any of the new ones if they have any) and the All-Star FM25 pads all have the exact same internals. Also, thanks for the kind words!

Extremely slow like minute page loads sometimes - but it doesn't help that I've been on a more unstable connection lately.

I don't have the frame at the moment but @MadMax or @concertman1971 might be able to help answer that one.

Verdict: Poorly

I’ll follow up on this with some photos.

The GR8 Call leathers and air mesh pads are also the “Honig’s” pads which basically have the same internals as the All-Star FM25 pads. You may be noticing a trend here all originating from when Dick Honig sold the company years ago.

Hollow-steel, 16.8oz. It’s the Honig’s K4 frame.

The hope is early May, but it’s about 50/50 the production will line up with when the next container sails. 🤞

I can't comment on the specifics yet but I will say you can expect HDPE distribution plates (top and bottom) and a 3-layer laminate foam stack.

The frame this year will only be released in a matte black, 25/26 you can expect an additional color option. The MSRP for the frame is $230 USD. I don't have any pricing details on it packaged with the mask pads yet or an official release date.

I will mirror what was said. They’re good, they aren’t Force3 good (both in profile and appearance) but they’re also not priced like Force3. (Then again, a lot of deals on them now) As I try not to be biased I think Force3 is still king here. We’ll see what we release in the next 12-24 months.

Who's more excited?

Ump Attire just posted this on Facebook. Apparently Smitty did not color match any of their other colors so now they have 6 colors... 𝗖𝗚 - Charcoal Grey best match to 100% Polyester Charcoal Grey Pants (S374-CC, S375-CC, S376-CC) 𝗛𝗚 - Heather Grey best match to 100% Polyester Heather Grey Pants (S11X, S17X, S24X, S377-HG) 𝗗𝗚 - Dark Grey best match to 92% Poly / 8% Spandex Charcoal Grey (S390, S391, S392, S394X, S395X, S396X)

NCAA and MLB w/ charcoal shoulders will hit the line up in Q4. Both in this variation and with the BFX Soft Shell Full Zip as well.

Is it… for sale? @mw94

They're fitted with integrated optional thumb holes, not elastic.

There will be a more economical version being released that is $130 MSRP. Same design characteristics but different foam technologies and slightly thicker. 2-3mm more off the top of my head.

The problem with Nike is they aren't big fans of people who don't have narrow feet!

We did not send them the appropriate jackets this year - convertibles ain't cutting it.

Not quite - we received some new samples late last week so hopefully we're closer but I don't have anything concrete as of yet on a possible release date.

These work?

Might be pretty difficult to find. They're no longer being made.
