CCM has impressed me recently with their protective line in the hockey world. Using technology like Carbon’s NestTech they have created the most comfortable helmet (SuperTacks X Total Custom) I have ever worn with the 3D Printed lattice system.
I was impressed by their previous line of Tacks gloves by their use of a shot blocker plate and NestTech, with an airflow focus to help cool off your hands. When I saw the NestTech on their new XF Pro gloves I knew I had to take a look and try them out myself… so I ended up buying a pair so I could do the review and see if the NestTech was a gimmick or if it actually works. So if you want to see more reviews like this one, it would be greatly appreciative if you clicked the links below to help support this website and the YouTube channels so I can continue to make more content like this!
Check out the full review of the CCM Tacks XF Pro hockey gloves on YouTube and below:
When I did a Snap Shot review of the previous model, the Tacks AS-V Pro gloves, I suggested moving the NestTech to the side of the glove instead of on the backhand to allow airflow to go directly into the glove while a player is skating, and I was happy to see the AER-TEC on CCM’s FT6 Pro gloves and that change came over to the new XF Pro gloves as well!
While the CCM Tacks XF-Pro aren’t the best gloves I have used and aren’t quite up to the level of pro stock gloves, they are a solid option and I love how they are innovating in the protective market when most companies seem to be going backwards and creating cheaper made equipment while pricing them higher.
