T-hooks for Wilson Platinum/Gold

[kylejt]

I'm restoring a couple of chest protectors for our Junior umpire program, and need some replacement hooks. Any idea where I can get them directly? I've e-mailed Wilson, with no luck.

Do you have a pic?  I know the T-hooks on my CP are identical to the ones used on football shoulder pads.

Thanks for the football shoulder pad thought, storm13.  I've tried to find these for a while.  A Google using "t-hook football shoulder pad hardware" turns up a number of sellers, including Amazon.  Unfortunately, they're sold in packs of 50 - LOL.  kylejt, If you'd like to sell me a few please PM.

I can get you some in the mail....PM me your address and I should be able to send some tonight or beginning of next week

The hooks are sold a dozen to a bag, and they even have blackened ones. How cool is that?

If you know a local football coach, you would be in luck for nothing.

Didn't even think about other applications, and, perhaps, a better solution. Storm13, and thanks for the offer. I'm going to try these, and see if the work better with the Delta Flex. Perhaps they need a bit less strap length, and may work better.

 

12 bucks for 4, delivered, via eBay.

Epic Sports is one of the equipment suppliers with the cheapest prices around. The like to undercut the other retailers. They get you with the high restocking fees.

Those T-hooks that kyle found are the ones that Douglas use.

Caution - I'm also a football coach and some Ts often have necks of different widths.

I tried to use some with the thicker necks on my WVG and they wouldn't "twist" in the slot.
