Are they just EB Tortex? Anyone tried them? Is this the 14th thread about them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here, I'm wondering if they are just Tortex or if it's actually something new and interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bubkus_jones Posted October 4, 2012 Members Share Posted October 4, 2012 Naming something "Everlast" doesn't necessarily mean they'll be durable. I mean, look at the actual Everlast brand and it's boxing equipment, there's a reason why it's called "Neverlast", unless you spend $300+ on a pair of gloves (and if you're willing to do that, there are much better gloves from Winning, Grant and Cleto Reyes for that kind of price). Maybe they're awesome, but using the name "Everlast" automatically calls their durability into question. I don't know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members notjonahbutnoah Posted October 4, 2012 Author Members Share Posted October 4, 2012 I'm pretty happy with my current picks, but new stuff is always intriguing. I'm just hoping someone has actually touched one to say whether or not it's just Tortex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members steve_man Posted October 6, 2012 Members Share Posted October 6, 2012 Been using Fender mediums since I started playing...it's what my dad uses. Every now and then, I'll venture off and try something else, but I always end up back at Fender mediums... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PrawnHeed Posted October 6, 2012 Members Share Posted October 6, 2012 They are delrin, which is a brand name for POM. Tortex are also delrin. No magic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
