New gear this year?

[ASA/NYSSOBLUE]

CecilOne, in the ASA Jacket indicated he is 'pledging' not to buy any new gear/unis this year, so I thought I would start a new thread directly asking:

What new gear do you need/want to buy this year? that includes unis too!

Let me run down the state of my gear:

Mask: Only a couple of seasons old - nice and broke in now (yer basic two tone Wilson combo vinyl/doeskin)

Body protector: My Pro Nine protector is still solid after 5 seasons of use, I am good there.

Leg guards: DING DING DING My Davis guards are also five, and have taken more than their share of hits - They are pretty scratched up, and, more importantly, the inside liners are getting worn - time to replace! I'm definitely buying those again.

Base shoes: My NB field shoes are still in very good shape, and literally as comfortable as an old shoe At least another season before replacement!

Plate shoes: DING DING DING My old Spotbilt high tops still fit, but look worn, so time to replace! Any recommendations on a good, fairly reasonable plate shoe?

Uniforms: NYSSO finally voted for heather gray pants - but - made it 'optional' for the local groups. Seeing as how our local had voted to recommend the change, I can actually go out and buy new gray, and not buy navy blue (our ASA group went gray couple of years ago..)


so that is basically it for me - I always buy at least one new hat every year, and couple of other small things, but that is automatic for me!

Your turn!
