jerd31 Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 Brian's teasing the Optik 4 line dropping in November: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C_TAFVVujO9/?hl=en Looks like they're going back to their roots on the graphics, I personally liked the Optik 3 graphic but it seemed to be a love it or hate it thing. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

old and stiff Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 Curious to see what type of mods/ improvements have been made to the line. The glove seems to have a new segmented back hand, and I can’t tell if the palm has been rounded or if they’ve kept the traditional optik squared-off fingertip design. Sounds petty, but I didn’t care for the optik back hand and I considered asking Brian’s if they could use the back hand from the Iconik or Eclipse. If Brian’s added some type of enhanced plush palm liner like Bauer’s duraconnect, that’d be a huge upgrade IMO. we’ll see if there’s been much change to the pads. I suspect they’ll use a knee block similar to what’s now featured on the iconik. Excited to see this line 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.YOUNGoalie13 Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 This graphic could be cool enough for me to try Brians Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IpaddyTECH Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 Definitely a cool looking graphic, but kind of not that versatile? Also I know this was a longshot but I was really hoping to see an integrated any block option for their knee stack. No luck haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keeperton Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 Product page is live too: https://www.goalies-only.com/collection-optik-4/ The pad changes all look like great revisions: the strapping and boot wear-guards in particular. The blocker looks interesting (with the "reversion" to the Optik 1 looking hand with no cross strap), I'm hoping I'll get to demo these all at some point and feel/see how the pucks pop off of their new board.

ilyazhito Posted September 7 Share Posted September 7 I'd be curious to see how the Optik 4s play. Will there still be the FLEX, FLY, and MAX core options from the Optik 3 pads, or has Brian's gone with a different approach? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent pictures and brief overview of the pads there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IpaddyTECH Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 Anyone able to comment on the advantages/disadvantages of having the knee block strap come up through the knee block instead of attaching on the outside edge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A closer wrap around your knee and leg would be an advantage. A disadvantage would be if you like a looser feeling pad this one doesn’t seem as adjustable as previous Brian’s pads. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerd31 Posted September 26 Author Share Posted September 26 I’m like 90% sure I’m gonna order Optik 4’s with the stock graphic in November- also contemplating doing the DX2 graphic. Been playing around with the customizer: Neon green is my jam, but the latest one I did there with the cream looks pretty awesome IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xmikex32 Posted September 27 Share Posted September 27 Maybe since the pads are used but I was checking out a goalie pad and his optik3 MAX were pretty soft. Does the max core soften up after a bit? Maybe I’m comparing it too much to Bauers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
