hahah why are you saying that? is it becase of shipping costs? They cost me like 5 bucks shipping from Europe to the US.


I have both sets of gloves so I may be able to help you out.


The Lush Gloves
Good
-Glove itself is strong, wrist strap is comfortable, velcro is in all of the right places
-Sweat pad of the thumb
-Knuckle protectors have actually protected my knuckles.

Bad
-Finger pucks are good, but the palm pucks melt. Not recommended for technical sliding, puck upgrade needed.




Loaded Gloves
Good
-Pucks last longer than most stock pucks
-Wrist strap is really snug, and there is some wrist padding.
-Added Kevlar strengthens the fingers.

Bad
-Gloves get very hot, my hands have never sweated that much from a slide glove before.
-The knuckle protection is more cosmetic than it is functional.




Overall, you would be stoked with either of the gloves. Each glove has its strengths and weakness but also is unique it is own way. Get a set of either and go skate!
