I purchased these warrior mitts to use for the season this winter yet I was tempted by the comfort and the palm of these gloves and skated with them a few months earlier. Immediately I noticed how supple and soft the palm is and the performance is great, however I doubt these mitts will last the rest of the summer as well as the season. Value is fine for me and the contoured fit is one I prefer. I know there not the 4 roll bread and butter, yet they pack a punch in comfort and in performance, if you prefer a contoured fitting glove.
