I think I am good on my plate gear and shoes. New 3N2 plate shoes last year holding up well, new 3N2 base shoes also holding up well. New Diamond light weight mask last year. Shutt Kool-Vest 4-5 years old, other than a little tear in the undershirt part it's doing very well. Shin guards are my oldest piece of equipment, they are probably 12-13 year old UMP-shins and are still working fine! But I'm sure I will spend some $$ on something that I can't live without soon!!! Do me a favor.....don't tell the wife!!! Don't worry she will know before I get done with the transaction....stupid direct deposit and on-line banking can't hide anything anymore

Didn't you hear? ASA now mandates that all shin guards be less than 10 years old.
