I bought these gloves because I usually wear a thin, non-protective, women's lacrosse glove while playing and I wanted more protection during games. I don't like a lot of padding as I feel it interferes with my grip and my shot. I got them and was a little skeptical because they were very snug. I wear an XL women's glove typically and ordered the L per recommendation from Broomball.com. The overall feel of the glove felt tight, with little range of motion. The wrist opening is small, and it's difficult to get your hand in at first. However, I have been playing with them for two weeks. There hasn't been a need to break them in. They are tight but they move and flex with you while you play. They offer a ton of padding, in fact I took a hit to the hands the other night and was completely protected. While I didn't like the snug feel at first, it is something I appreciate because the gloves don't move around like a traditional hockey glove, and they do not interfere with my shot/hit. I also want to shout out to the awesome people at Broomball.com who answered all of my questions and were great to deal with! Awesome product, go for it!
