WARRIOR COVERT QRL GLOVES

MATTIAS JANMARK'S PRO STOCK HOCKEY GLOVES REVIEW

Before we get into the nitty-gritty, here is an overview of the gloves. These are the 14 inch Warrior Covert QRL Mattias Janmark Pro Stock gloves, with the Vegas Golden Knights coloring. These gloves feature a tapered fit with built-in shot blockers or slash guards. The palms are not the ones that come standard with the glove, but instead, are the digital palms without any inlay. 

Here are some things to keep in mind when considering making the change to Mattias Janmark’s Pro Stock Warrior Covert QRL gloves based on my usage over the last 6 months.

Starting with the pros, you should keep in mind that these are from my experience, so, you may have slightly different results based on how often you play and the skill level you play at.

Pros:

1. The gloves are SUPER comfortable. In addition to the tapered fit, the gloves just feel like they mold to your hands and are ready to go out of the box with very little (if any) time to break them in.

2. The palms provide a good amount of grip without sacrificing any feel of the hockey stick.

3. The gloves provide a great amount of protection. Whether you call the extra pads ‘shot blockers’ or ‘slash guards’, the extra padding is a definite plus with these gloves as they protect your hands more than the standard glove.

For the negative portion of this review, there are really only 2 downsides to the warrior qrl pro stock hockey gloves, where the first is a minor downside and the second is a major one.

Cons: 

• The minor downside is that if you like to wear a watch (such as an Apple Watch), the tapered fit makes it a bit difficult to do this, as there is not much extra space around your wrist, under the cuff. However, I find that this may not be a big issue for the majority of players.

• The Major downside is that the digital palms, which are very comfortable, do not have any kind of reinforced inlay, so the comfort comes at the cost of the durability of the gloves.

My Results

Taking into account the pros and cons, I went ahead and ordered new gloves from prostockhockey.com. 

My decision, after 6 months of using the Mattais Janmark Pro Stock Warrior Covert QRL gloves, was to… buy another pair. Simply put, I am able to purchase new gloves every 6 months, so the digital palms having durability issues was not a deal breaker for me. 

Overall, I would give the Mattais Janmark Pro Stock Warrior Covert QRL gloves an A- grade. The gloves have far superior mobility and protection compared to gloves I have used in the past and the only reason why the gloves drop down to an A- is that the palms are not durable.
