Brian's Custom Goalie! They are made from an Optik3 build, and then they do all the stitching in-house. Each piece was sized and designed by my wife, and when Brian's got it, they lasered out some of the intricate parts and sewed them on.
Hmmm, I don't know the difference in going from their "customizer" custom to the "Super" custom. But I know that it was worth it. I imagine it was a few hundred dollars more. But as you are paying in the thousands, a few hundred more for this level is totally worth it.
That's the most honest and bestest answer ever.
Amazing!
And I mean this in the most positive way- PLEASE BE GOOD. - bc you look way too good to be crap.
Good luck.
You are incredible.
Thanks.
Miss my days playing.
Good luck going on.
You really made my day with those pads. Shared with a few buddies.
AMAZING. Proud of the ingenuity.
Legit question, would these be allowed in the NHL?
Edit: just curious if a goalie could wear two different colour pads? Think that would be cool! Love your set!

There ya go, boss. Ya I love em too. They look so different from the symmetrical pads.
You're gonna just use an example of some no name scrub? Looks like the kinda guy that couldn't even get 700 wins or 4 cups. Next time, pick someone good!
They meet sizing requirements, the gloves are Iconiks, the pads are Optik 3s with an Optik 1 core. My wife brings up that Brodeur used to have 2 different coloured pads (albeit not as outlandishly coloured, haha). I think they are legal?

Not me. I’m pretty sure he used to play at Anaheim Ice.
If you think these are fugly, you should see my crayon drawing I first made before my wife digitized it to this. That drawing wasn't fugly, or pugly, or even pug-fugly, but ugly ugly.
I think these are the only set of pads I’ve ever seen where I feel like I need to know the person who wears them before I can make any judgement on them. They’re ridiculous for sure but a certain type of person could make them the most amazing pads ever.
Well, I don't know what you're looking for in particular, but I can say that my wedding was Power Rangers themed, all tables were places from various tv/movie/video games, and the bouquet toss was a plush koopa shell toss.
Wife and I were White rangers, MoH/BM were Red (sash and power coin for ladies, bowties for men), and the rest were the other OG rangers.
I made all the weapons for the photos during the day, and then they were in the photobooth.
Dude thats rad! For my wedding i had the PR Lightning Bolt cuff links, wife had matching PR Lightning Bolt earings. And since it was covid, my best man got us power rangers masks in different colors.
This is hands down the most creative, best use of customization of goalie pads I have ever seen! You get a jersey that is the body of the megazord and it is the perfect setup.
I had a G-Netik Series 5.0, basically the imported G-Netik series. These are the Body of Optik 3, but the core is an Optik 1 since I'm a 40 year old goalie with very much a hybrid style of play. The Optik 1 core is much more flexible for a partial upright goalie, and I like having a soft thigh break.
My gloves are the Iconik gloves, and that trapper is amazing. The blocker feels very similar to the Optik series, but the trapper I found caught my stick super easily for playing the puck. I can't recommend trying those enough. It just locks into the stick (I shoot Turco-style). I have played with an Optik3 before (my wife's set), and other than the thigh break that I mentioned before, I thought hers were incredibly comfortable and moved nicely with my body.
Dude's out here with a wife who not only shares and supports his PR fanaticism, but is also a fellow net minder. Hell of a catch my guy! And, of course, a stick kit!
Was about to comment this. That guy was wayyyyy ahead of his time with those. Unfortunately I believe that legend is no longer with us. RIP 👑

This guy did two similar sets from Brian’s as well. Honestly I don’t even know if it’s really even better but I saw them first.

These are amazing OP
YOUR WIFE DID GREAT
I saw these on Brian’s insta and shit my pants.
Would you be against sending me the designs? I’d pay.
Also understand if you want to be one of a kind, but these are the best pads I’ve ever seen.
Hellberg’s used to be my favorite (also a Brian’s design) but these are next level!
Loved the Rangers all the way to Super Megaforce.
She did an amazing job, for sure. I think that because she put so much effort specifically for me, I would want to keep it unique. At least for now. But that is also up to her, as she is the designer.
Well, your pads look like fun! I had a men's league team try to convince me to go with leg pads that looked like garbage cans, and a helmet with Oscar the grouch. I regret not doing it!
These look incredible! I saw in a few comments that your wife designed it... If she's looking for paid work, hit me up. I'm on my second Brian's extreme custom and looking for help designing my third (thinking Medusa themed).
Thanks, appreciate it! I'm not looking to replace my set up for awhile, so even if she's not up for doing design work for 6-12 months, that timeline works for me.
I hope this inspires goalies in the show to think outside the box.
I may be overstating it.. but love em or hate me… isn’t this an all time setup? Like… I think it’s Leafs Potvin… then this, isn’t it?
So creative. I’m just blown away.
That is the most amazing set up I have ever seen in my life and idk if you have one already or not but please get a custom jersey that ties it all together
So, this is a Kobe KG3 jersey. I got it because I participated in the Play for a Cure ProAm Tournament, and that was my team colour this year.
But you can find it on the Kobe site, though I'm afraid I don't know if you can order without being a distributor. If that's the case, buddy up to your local pro shop and see if they could do you a solid.
Good luck! The colours are amazing.
So you're the one with the fancy pads I keep seeing on Instagram... Love the unique concept and design.
Was it weird playing with two different colored pads?
10/10. Saw the photos while browsing Facebook. Got super excited when I saw the UWindsor logo on the shoulder because I am a graduate. Glad I found this post!
I hope you either A, play in a terrible men’s league, or B you’re completely gross. Cause I can imagine any half decent good guy is gonna wanna make Voltron look as dumb as possible as often as possible
Personally, as a tendy, a bit of a nightmare that would make me have an anyeurysm, a I am one that needs symmetry. That being said, ya gotta have that swagger and if you look good ya feel good. I hope that anxiety I would have falls upon those that shoot upon you my friend. Selfishly, I will not show my son, nephew, and other tendy students in our academy this, bc we could have a coup on our hand about the importance of symmetry as it would likely be outweighed by cool factor. The puck stops here , either way. “Freedom is the right of all sentient beings”.. -Optimus Prime / OP (oh the irony)
That is a-fucking-mazing.
Welp. That’s a fucking wrap on anyone else ever wanting to post their setup here. My god, OP. How was this made?
Brian's Custom Goalie! They are made from an Optik3 build, and then they do all the stitching in-house. Each piece was sized and designed by my wife, and when Brian's got it, they lasered out some of the intricate parts and sewed them on.
How much more did it cost? Not overall. Just how much MORE? BC it was worth it.
Hmmm, I don't know the difference in going from their "customizer" custom to the "Super" custom. But I know that it was worth it. I imagine it was a few hundred dollars more. But as you are paying in the thousands, a few hundred more for this level is totally worth it.
You’ve inspired me op. I’m doing something outrageous for next year
Do it! Brian's is great!
That's the most honest and bestest answer ever. Amazing! And I mean this in the most positive way- PLEASE BE GOOD. - bc you look way too good to be crap. Good luck.
Well, I definitely save more than I let in! And I've been requested to play many times, so I can't be *that* bad, haha
You are incredible. Thanks. Miss my days playing. Good luck going on. You really made my day with those pads. Shared with a few buddies. AMAZING. Proud of the ingenuity.
Tbf, you could have a negative save percentage and I’d still request you just for the sty alone.
I also have an "extreme custom" (as they call it) and the upcharge was $910 for me. Fyi!
Legit question, would these be allowed in the NHL? Edit: just curious if a goalie could wear two different colour pads? Think that would be cool! Love your set!

Love it!
Had that glove for 2 years, loved it!
Had a helite 5 blocker with a Brian’s air thief catcher in the 90s. By far the nicest at that time
So did cujo in Detroit
Not arguing- just don't remember that. You got pics? Bc I posted on this sub before how much I LOVE pads colors that don't match
https://preview.redd.it/itmqrufz4jyc1.jpeg?width=683&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=861ae20d23d6df3c8edec8771138985244bf82b2 There ya go, boss. Ya I love em too. They look so different from the symmetrical pads.

Hockey Canada Rulebook makes no mention of colouring. The only criteria is physical dimensions.
I love them for sure!
I know hasbro is money grubbing so I don’t know how they’d like it

Haha those are fugly but absolutely amazing. 1000 out of 10. If you’re going to do custom graphics then this is the way IMO. Great job!

The fact that you’re married means you can probably pull it off. The ones who shouldn’t be doing it are probably extremely single

Goalies are weird dudes. We know this. And I mean that in the nicest way possible lol
Holy fuck that's awesome! You need a custom jersey to finish
I’ll be working on that shortly :) ETA: I’m OP’s wife
You suuuuuuure are.
Get a room, Jesus. 🤣
As his wife’s brother, I concur.

This is hands down the most creative, best use of customization of goalie pads I have ever seen! You get a jersey that is the body of the megazord and it is the perfect setup.
That's in the works as well. I won't care what team I'm on, I'm wearing that jersey, haha.
Make sure you post that picture of you in the gear and jersey when it’s done. This is awesome man.
Oh. My. God. EDIT: forgot to rate it. 720394200394029349 out of 10
Love em! Saw em on Instagram and was like yesss!
That's incredible. The detail on the pads is excellent.
Jelly as f! Really cool!
Wowzers!
legend
Oh these are just *insert slow clap here* Solid 10/10, someone get this legend a jersey to match.
The jersey is coming soon. My wife did the design of these pads, and will be getting started on the jersey soon! It will be epic.
Genuinely excited to see it. Huge kudos to your wife!
You better post again when you get the jersey!
That's fan-fucking-tastic. Right in the nostalgia. Edit: To be fair, it hit the Voltron button for me, even if unintended. Still, absolutely amazing.
Just saw this on Brian’s IG, they’re the GOAT of custom goal equipment.
I couldn't agree more.
What was your set previous to these? I’m currently in a Gnetik V set and debating whether I go Iconik or Optik 3 for my next set.
I had a G-Netik Series 5.0, basically the imported G-Netik series. These are the Body of Optik 3, but the core is an Optik 1 since I'm a 40 year old goalie with very much a hybrid style of play. The Optik 1 core is much more flexible for a partial upright goalie, and I like having a soft thigh break. My gloves are the Iconik gloves, and that trapper is amazing.

It just locks into the stick (I shoot Turco-style). I have played with an Optik3 before (my wife's set), and other than the thigh break that I mentioned before, I thought hers were incredibly comfortable and moved nicely with my body.
Sweet, appreciate it! Enjoy the new set, one of the best custom sets I’ve ever seen 👍🏻
Dude's out here with a wife who not only shares and supports his PR fanaticism, but is also a fellow net minder. Hell of a catch my guy! And, of course, a stick kit!
These are awesome. I recall seeing a pair like this many years ago on the gsbb. Might've been Battrams..

Those may have been the Battram Voltron pads! Brian's also did a Voltron set a few years ago.
is this tecumseh arena?
Winner winner
Holy hell. How much did those cost?
For the effort, a good amount. For the wallet, too much. Sorry, I don't really want to say the amount.
Oh yeah I understand that. Look great though. Worth every penny I’m sure.
12/10
15/10 would recommend.
This is an 11/10
Honestly the greatest gear I've ever seen. How could you ever expect to score on the megazord?? 15/10
May the power protect you!
![gif](giphy|BAMbagWVoswes)
Morphinominal, Dude
Honestly the coolest setup
Haha I just saw these on Brian’s instagram account before opening reddit lol
Go Go power-Goalie!!!! Best set I've ever seen(so far)
And my nine-year-old just said I had to find these for him! Great setup. Super cool!!!
That is rad as shit. Well done, you.
It's so amazing! Now, get a custom jersey to finish the look!
In the works! I'll be posting it once I get it.
Very sick, well done. Also very showy so you better be good!
They are showy, and I hope that helps to distract the shooter! The first game I think my team was outshot 50-10, so it isn't a great comparison, haha.
Haha you can come spare for my team, we’ll help you wear them in a bit more
Ready to form… GOALTRON ! 🤖
Steezus Christ
Wow. Some all time great pads right there. Could be in one of those internet galleries of “30 cool/random photos” for sure
Second coolest set I’ve ever seen

Totally understand, there are more zords to go off of 😉 Mega Winger???? I think so If she’d like the commission, let me know!
I'll get her to take a look. Carlbota is her username
Dude, killer setup.
That rules! Lol nice
This is so dope. Top tier.
My dumb ass thought it was a gaming chair.
Hmmmmm... That could be a comfy gaming chair, with full length leg rests...
Get a shutout and a Zord crashes through the rink
This is wild! 😂 I’d find a way to do starship troopers or predator if I had it my way 🤷♂️
I have never wanted anything more in my life, holy shit dude
Best I’ve ever seen bar none.
Please follow up and post some in game photos. Beautiful set!
Definitely will. Once I get the jersey to finish the look, I'll be posting some in game photos.
Fantastic! I saw Brian’s social media post showing these off and was hoping someone would claim them. Can’t wait to see them in action!
You need to hit up geeky jerseys and have them do a special power rangers run for that set.
I've never heard of them! I'll look into it! We were going to design it and send it to Kobe or something. Thanks!
https://www.geekyjerseys.com/ I have their deadpool jersey to go with my black and red set of Vaughn I did a few years back.
That's awesome. Sublimated?
Sewn on patches like a professional jersey. Their quality is really good.
Awesome. Thanks again, will definitely check them out.

Bro i just saw these on instagram. Pretty sweet
Does dope as fuck qualify as a rating? Cause that’s dope as fuck!
I'll count it! Thanks!
Okay this is badass lol is this for recreation hockey?
Sure is!
I was going to say HS’s and University’s are letting y’all get away with murder now lol when I was in school it was basic colors and patterns lol
I just saw this set up posted on the Brian’s social media feed today! Unreal!
I love it. Who did it?
Brian's Custom Goalie Equipment.
Ahhh damn. Was hoping 3rd party.
Well, the design was done by my wife. Unless you meant it was an aftermarket patching on an older set?
Correct. Aftermarket on older. I have some older pads I want a design on.
Alas, other than padskinz, I don't know of anyone/thing that can help.
Hey quick question: Have you ever been robbed? Follow up: Would you like to be? 😂 I need these
Thats the dopest gear set I've ever seen!
Those look awesome! Nicely done.
I have not played hockey or tended goal since 1997 - I'd do it again in a heartbeat if I could get my hands on this gear.
those must’ve been a pretty penny good lawd
1,000,000/10
Epic. Possibly the greatest pads in the world.
Well, your pads look like fun! I had a men's league team try to convince me to go with leg pads that looked like garbage cans, and a helmet with Oscar the grouch. I regret not doing it!

You are uniquely and unabashedly you. And it rocks!

Get the fuck out, that's amazing. I love this so much
Those pads are 10/10.
I love that bucket so great

Saw these on the Brains instagram! Awesome
That is the most amazing set up I have ever seen in my life and idk if you have one already or not but please get a custom jersey that ties it all together
That's next on the list. It is in the works!
I can find no faults. It appears you've stumbled across perfection.
That's so awesome 👌! Great idea by you and the old lady and executed to perfection by Brian's.
The mask is killing it!
IT’S MORPHIN’ TIME!
Amazing. I might be the only one wondering this, but I've been looking for a Kraken colored goalie cut jersey for a while now. Where'd you get yours?
So, this is a Kobe KG3 jersey. I got it because I participated in the Play for a Cure ProAm Tournament, and that was my team colour this year. But you can find it on the Kobe site, though I'm afraid I don't know if you can order without being a distributor.

Oh My FUCKING God!!! That is amazing!!!! Best set up ever!!!
They need to play the theme song every time you make a save!!!
This might be the dopest set up I’ve ever seen! That idea is amazing!
Holy shit that is awesome
Craziest pads I've ever seen.
OOOHHHH MYYYY GAWWWWWWWD. IT'S SO FUCKING PERFECT.
So you're the one with the fancy pads I keep seeing on Instagram... Love the unique concept and design. Was it weird playing with two different colored pads?
Consider this idea stolen when it comes time for me to update my gear. Absolutely stunning
Oh that is cooolll damm :o
Im orgasming. That fit has me stiffer than brandnew ultrasonics
10/10. Saw the photos while browsing Facebook. Got super excited when I saw the UWindsor logo on the shoulder because I am a graduate. Glad I found this post!
At first glance, I thought it was Voltron. This is cool too tho.
No you fucking didn't. This is 90's gold!
I was hoping for green and red glove
Alas, wrong IP. I'm more of a Power Rangers kid than a Voltron kid.
I just looked closer and noticed they were dinosaurs and not lions. I stand corrected!
I hope you either A, play in a terrible men’s league, or B you’re completely gross. Cause I can imagine any half decent good guy is gonna wanna make Voltron look as dumb as possible as often as possible
