Overview
The Bauer Vapor APX Limited Edition hockey gloves have all of the great features as the regular APX gloves but you get some unique color combinations, sure to get peoples attention at the rink. The APX Limited Edition glove is extremely light weight, yet highly protective due to a unique foam construction. This glove offers a tapered fit, providing you with maximum control with ample wrist mobility.
The APX Limited Edition glove's exterior is made up of a mix of cable mesh and synthetic leather. This provides a great balance between a lightweight feel, durability, and breathability.
Bauer used dual density Aero foam through the fingers and the back of the hand without using plastic inserts, reducing the gloves weight by 20% while still maintaining that high level of protection. The APX Limited Edition glove does have plastic inserts running up the outside of the glove providing that extra protection to the vulnerable part of your hand.
The APX Limited Edition glove features the Techni-Flex+ palm providing you with a premium feel and great durability. The Techni-Flex+ palms feature X-STATIC® silver fibers providing protection against odors and stains. Bauer also stitched on the AB SORB pad to provide a more comfortable grip on your stick and dampen any vibration.

Previous Feedback
Comments: These gloves are absolutely great. They have a very fitted feel and very responsive to stick handling and shooting. I have been using for about 3 months now and no signs of major wear. I would highly recommend these gloves to anyone looking for a more fitted glove.
