TESTING FAKE HOCKEY GEAR

[@TSN_Sports]

Would you ever buy knockoff gear?! 🤔

[@Manu-ue9fc]

Maybe if I was broke

[@knoxjames3427]

No why the hell would I do that

[@ThatOneDude09]

If it protects me the same then sure

[@petergoesbardownski]

I think I am going to for most of my hockey needs , this is legit

[@johnk3734]

No

[@FusionAmoeba]

That is definitely a real ADV that fell off the assembly line in a Chinese factory lol

[@Cmonster-hr6tq]

It is

[@Cmonster-hr6tq]

I have a ADV like that

[@Cmonster-hr6tq]

It was really copied well or it is the real thing

[@natestinson69]

It happens a lot that in the factory’s making the real things workers take stuff home and sell it as “knockoffs”

[@monkeydudesingo]

It actually isn't knockoff. Usually in China employees at the official factories sometimes take home/steal the products that did not pass quality inspection and sell them themselves as "knockoff" to make extra money. I used to live and play hockey in Shanghai and these "knockoffs" were extremely popular there as they are basically the real thing.

[@chriswest6090]

That and the "official" factories sub out over production and the sub contractors make extra in case there's a QC issue so they end up with extra stock , sometimes they are shipping out the back door during the production run as well , I bought touchless faucets that are the same units a major company in North America sells for $200+ with their name etched on them for 13 bucks a piece with no name on them , the shipping was twice the price of the units but I sold them for between $80 and $110 each so I still did alright on 50 units lol .

[@MrWhiteVzla]

Same thing in Bangladesh. I don't know if that's still the case, though. However, back back in 2009 I met a Bangladesh guy who was dressed with super expensive brands from head to toe. Turns out he bought all his clothes directly from the factories that made them. People would take all the things that were rejected and sold it across the factories for pennies (in comparison to the "real" price). I got a lot of Armani clothes for close to nothing. lol

[@thedominatior39]

How’s the hockey in Shanghai

[@Poppapanda2001]

This is the case with the Bauer gear but that helmet is dust

[@jakowiw_91]

So they are real sticks with the same performance

[@Roymond]

There's no way I'd be rocking that Mylec helmet out on the ice. Other than that the stick and gloves look legit

[@sachads5322]

It’s not a helmet. It’s a hat. He’s basically playing hockey in a toy John Olerud helmet from a cereal box.

[@brendan9868]

I think the stick and gloves might actually be legit, it’s not uncommon for stuff to go “missing” in the factory then magically appear online for sale. So yeah good deal on those honestly. That helmet is a death trap tho, looks like it would just shatter at the slightest contact.

[@raimarulightning]

I'm pretty sure it's a cricket batters helmet, so it's definitely not made for the kinds of collisions in hockey, lmao

[@TheMrtgamer]

@@raimarulightning No, it's a street hockey helmet 🤣🤣🤣

[@platapus112]

Fun fact, those advs and other sticks aren't knock offs, they are the real blanks

[@oglunnetto2097]

Where do i get it

[@filipflyers-ds9oc]

Man bardown is just ripping out videos like it's nothing and I love it

[@nichobowl582]

I feel like they got hacked lol

[@JamesWilliams-kt5qr]

When someone who plays goal hears someone who plays forward say hockey’s expensive. Oh you sweet summer child.

[@Outta-hz1ej]

That helmet looks like if it took a slapshot it'd explode into a thousand pieces

[@bry12341000]

Idk about pieces maybe more like dust

[@sythe6945]

Do a video where you all have a C on your jersey and when someone gets a penalty everyone goes to talk to the ref

[@lnsargnet]

This would be hilarious

[@TheZombiemofo]

Vince be looking like Pool Party with that bucket on. I'm guessing the goalie got confused wondering what he had on his head when he took the shot.

[@saltmancry]

We need more of these knockoff ones 😂

[@Ballgoesfar]

Lol more bangers from bardown

[@Nickolobob]

Lol 1:50 "Djustable Ice Hockey Helmet"

[@noahvirjee1113]

3 posts in one day I love it

[@relay9898]

The Mylec gear used to be pretty popular for roller hockey in the 90s. I had some of their shin guards that looked like a storm trooper would wear

[@sliderx1897]

I had one of thlse helmets in white. It was terrible i never used it. But it was pretty much identical including the cage with the nose

[@every_eve]

The helmet makes me so happy, I use a Mylec net I bought 8 years ago to practice stickhandling and goaltending daily!!

[@petergoesbardownski]

Is it weird that I’m kinda considering buying some stuff from the site, these look good, and are cheap af.

[@atlaslogan750]

I like your cat in your pfp :)

[@austriangroyper9308]

remember, it took like 3 months to ship to them lol

[@petergoesbardownski]

@@austriangroyper9308 true I should keep that in mind

[@petergoesbardownski]

@@atlaslogan750 thanks, polite cat is a go to

[@buffs96]

Don’t buy the helmet tho

[@lindseymank390]

I’m a simple woman, I see Vince, I click.

[@lnsargnet]

Props for Vince! Nice seeing you featured in this video.

[@dylanbaker9936]

Love this series we need more

[@alkenbrackmatt1]

Yes boys your back for more

[@M.B.Wallace]

Do not use a helmet that isn’t going to protect your brain.

[@recycos]

That was a fun video all around! Loved it 😎 with the gameee winner too😂🙌 awesome

[@trumanzerse1169]

We need more Vince!

[@patrolmanpete]

For the next installment, buy some skates off Ali Express and try them out, always wondered how those would hold up!

[@keegan4490]

whl pfp

[@VanBakelll]

Sooo much bardown content

[@thakid691]

That helmet is insane 😂

[@BobLeeeSwaggga]

You gotta include the prices for each item rookie move

[@Cotto_CsC]

They did multiple times

[@BobLeeeSwaggga]

@@Cotto_CsC not all of them though..

[@reuben583]

You guys never run out of banger videos

[@Spooon07]

The mylec helmet looks like haseks mask.

[@petergoesbardownski]

Haha 🤣

[@jonathanbeaulieu3630]

We need a video with Copperall pants and Cooper big dome of the 1980’s hahaha

[@xXxTRYAGAINxXx]

I feel like these aren't knockoffs and that you are just buying it directly from the factory in China.

[@BoltonGaming]

Bring back the BIN BOYS please and thanks

[@rylandennis1980]

somehow there was still an “are you keeding me” slipped in

[@rileykazama3145]

The helmet I have used that in special Olympics for floor hockey

[@jii-ro7083]

The opposing goalie looks like goalies from the 80's who can't bend their knees.

[@DanielJTeichroew]

When are you guys bringing back the bin boys? I love that series!

[@JimKimTheIdeaHunters]

The bucket looks as protective as those replica plastic souvenir batting helmets🤣😂

[@garryfran2242]

I LOVE THE MORE BARDOWN

[@DarthAnimal]

Kids, dont play with a literal plastic bucket on your head

[@theturtlefamily9531]

Those gloves look pretty comfy to sleep on.

[@m.johnmorency4230]

You should of just do a slap shot contest with a real and a knockoff stick and, do a deke (I’m not sure if that’s the right way to say it) contest (the kind you see at the all star game) to test the gloves and the stick. The game test should of been the last test. Great content guys. Keep it up.

[@Solafar_VB]

would be interesting to make nasher try the stick for your channel, see if he sees a difference

[@losertravels]

Those mylec helmets give me ptsd, my summer camp used them in my first few summers and they were awful managed to slowly throw them away as more helmets were inherited

[@InsignificantNick]

It was weird not seeing Vince in net.

[@milochanel9491]

That is the quietest rink I’ve ever heard

[@Rushyoutdoors]

Vince: what do you think Me: looking like the fucking dominator out there

[@paulschreiber]

Would love to see actual testing like Project Farm / Consumer Reports / America's Test Kitchen / VT Helmet lab.

[@Reidfr]

0:05 Jordan 4 skates what a Beauty

[@ryanrecher6542]

Why does Vince play goalie? Dude is saucy. He’s a top 6 forward.

[@Naruto-co1ju]

I might be making a odr so that’s pretty cool also live on Oakville so it’s already very cold but idk yet

[@t.lledsmar6052]

Lmao he's forgetting that sometimes things sold online as knockoff are actually just stolen

[@th3m4n32]

There is no way I would use that helmet in a game.

[@AkoladeYT]

new bin boys when?

[@seanscott2163]

Vince looks scary

[@craigjones2195]

If there’s not goalie gear imma be pissed

[@magfire6688]

The real crime here was that tape job

[@callofthewild5719]

Does Vince still play goalie or no

[@TWTexasA1]

Don’t think I would ever use a Mylec product on the ice, fine for roller hockey probably…..👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@nisrinaprihadi2754]

Looks more like a very good product that got rejected than a knock off

[@lukemoloney1113]

Good thing they had those masks on 😂😂

[@87_55_JG]

How do you know if my gear is real? I bought skates for sale

[@finnhill8798]

Jesse been hitting the gym?

[@divyanair5889]

does anyone feel a resemblance between dominik hasek's black cage with the sabres and the jofa knockoff?

[@steve581581]

Jesse's custom skates are still dope.

[@Mason.boukema]

mans says i think it was 2 bucks it was 300 bucks

[@dakotalynde1913]

I'd use the gloves and stick but not that helmet

[@twill5626]

Those visors are a crazy good deal.

[@jakedasnake_8469]

Jesse got the dawson Knox hair

[@QenaitheCustodianGuard]

That helmet looks like a military helmet

[@elliott9999999]

Huh so thats what a full size human head looks like on a 15 year old body lol

[@Waty8413]

It's not necessarily fake. In fact, it's quite likely real, just "gray market" or factory seconds/blemished. Any Joe Schmoe who is motivated enough can get in touch with sellers from Asia who will get you literally any gear you want. A friend of mine bought a pile of Bauer and Easton sticks for a fraction of the retail price. The Bauers had the serial number strip on the insides of the shaft. We actually called Bauer and asked if the stick was under warranty, providing the serial code and not telling them where we got it. They said yes. Of course fakes are a possibility, as this is true of the golf club industry. A low end stick can easily be dressed up to look like a top of a line stick. However, in the case of that Bauer Sling, it's probably unlikely.

[@aubreyn688]

i was excited for the knockoff skates tho

[@hockeybro]

I have these things for the gift in my 9 years old childhood

[@carlanderson6574]

...I don't think Bauer is going to be happy with BarDown after this.

[@CEO_Apex]

Hey bardown team I think your content is awesome and all but it would be better if jesey had a narley mullet

[@hunterbentley5890]

Weird seeing Vince not playing tendy

[@t.lledsmar6052]

I'm glad he used the mask to go online so he doesn't catch a computer virus

[@ChrisJones-pi5mh]

I wish you would have found some skates to try out

[@cenaboyle]

The Bauer sticks are made in china. Coach Jeremy ( how to hockey) visited a stick factory the make Bauer sticks. Look up the video

[@mariolemieux5672]

Quite funny but these guys couldn’t break many sticks with this power on skates and in the arms 😂

[@aubreyn688]

new challenge: win a game

[@daddysoyer6260]

i like vince hosting these

[@TrevorCut611]

im from Indiana, USA. There are ZERO places near me that sells hockey gear. So yes! I would.

[@billmafturack8189]

Lmao probably still better by far than the gear I wore in the seventies ….

[@SRMkay]

That helmet looks like a Moe Howard wig

[@xxmega__chronicxx]

Why is this guy wearing a mask while he’s the only one in that room ? That doesn’t make any logical sense

[@briandoolittle132]

That helmet kind of resembles the Dominik Hasek mask

[@scratch577]

Isn’t Vince a goalie

[@jacksonmcdowell3097]

Are you sure that it’s a nock off adv

[@Devdor]

Stone hands my lord dude

[@novoiperkele]

Slapshot?

[@UltraViolence90]

Fantom is the next Ethereum

[@Elliot180]

Jesse’s yoked! ...but that’s average for Winnipeg boys 😎

[@graemeferguson2000]

That helmet was made for Homer Simpson

[@modernman7576]

Lol now get the fake jofa in the picture

[@lucky_yt1293]

woah 🤯

[@electriciantv5174]

That looks like the helmet hasek wore

[@BreakNinetyOne1]

mask, alone, inside at computer? You okay?
