FORCE3 PRO GEAR - Sporting Goods Manufacturer & Retailer - Stratford, Connecticut

only the BEST things to say about Force3 Pro Gear. Cesar was an absolute delight to work with. I got the most amazing gear set. Yes i broke it outta the box and have been using it for a few days now, it was totally worth the wait to get this custom one-of-a-kind hockey set. I actually feel mad safe in my new helmet and chest protector. I even got the shin guards too, thanks for the suggestion Cesar and all your help designing the right package. Spread the word, this place is a hidden secret. Also check out their patented socks, keeps you warm and geared up always.

I have to admit that I was surprised how my interaction with Force3 went. I purchased the Force3 Mask, Shin Guards, Chest Protector and thigh protectors as I was told they were top of the line and are advertised as used by professionals. After 13 months (just one season and 9 months of actual use) my shin guards started breaking. Now understand that because of the supposed quality of these items, Force 3 equipment is not cheap. I contacted the company to send pictures of the shin guard and was totally dismayed and shocked when they replied back that basically I was out of luck because it was one month past the warranty.

Listen, I have worked with company's with less reliable products that still honored warranties several weeks past a deadline. Why? because they wanted to stand behind their product. I was even willing to take a used shin guard as a replacement in return as I am sure if mine had broken in just 13 months then there probably were other's who experienced the same thing but were fortunate enough to get them in before the exact warranty deadline and if it was a situation like mine where only one was broken then I was willing to take their used one that was ok as a replacement.

But not even that. Force3 simply said we will give you 25% off another pair. Really? I am not a professional umpire, but I was able to save up enough to purchase the full gear set up that was recommended to me and is advertised as used by professionals, but the only recourse was to buy another pair?

Well a costly lesson learned and I guess I will have to go back to using my old Wilson shin guards. They are old and beat up, but after all the years of use, they are not broken and still intact, unlike the Force3 that started breaking after 13 months (9 months of actual use).

So I will simply say this to anyone considering buying Force3 equipment, if you do invest the money in their equipment, MAKE SURE THAT YOU CHECK YOUR EQUIPMENT MONTHLY and HOPE and PRAY that if it does break that it does so within the 12 months, because if it happens one day, one week or one month after, like it did with me, well then it seems you will be S.O.O.L.

VERY DISAPPOINTED......

Let me first by saying I hardly write any reviews... however I would like to take this time to thank the team at Force3 Pro Gear especially Ceasar and his whole team who worked on my son's customized catcherz gear set.  It turely looks much better then any sketch. It's looks like a professional big leagues gear. Id have to admit I was a little intimated with all the fabrics and everything that goes into making the gear. Ceasar made it easy and less intimidating. He was knowledgeable  about the product. And goes the same for  everyone that I spoke to at Force3 Pro gear.. Although it did take a little longer then expected. The wait was worth it. Thank you again

Great gear, super protective. I have a big problem with my chest protector where the heart guard is way to big and gets in the way when blocking. Its kicks your mask and you cant look down, its a huge problem that needs to be fixed, but all and all great gear and comfortable.
