True L12.2 Goalie Full Set
The True L12.2 goalie full set, handcrafted by Lefevre, enhances the L12.1 line with a refined hybrid pad design for goalies using both butterfly and traditional techniques. It features high-density foam for better ice sealing and a traditional shin and boot construction for powerful movements. The innovative Fast Rotation System (FRS) allows for quick calf strap adjustments, maximizing stability and responsiveness in the crease.
Key features include:
| Quick Release Strapping System | This system allows the goalie to get on and off the ice quickly and easily. |
| Fast Rotation System (FRS) | Located at the calf and keeps the leg connected to the pad. |
| Freedom of Movement | The new boot channel offers optimal skate mobility when going up and down. |
| Easy-to-Close Glove | Made with high-density foams and high-quality Jen-Pro to provide protection and durability. |
| Pro-Level Blocker | High-end protection and controlled rebounds. |

The True L12.2 emphasizes maximum flexibility with its lighter-weight construction and a focus on a deep butterfly stance. This allows for quicker reaction times and easier lateral movements. CCM's Extreme Flex 5 counters with its Quick Release Technology in the glove and blocker, allowing for faster puck handling and smoother transitions between catching and blocking. Bauer Mach goes all-in on stability with its Vaughn VX2 outer flex panel. This translates to powerful pushes and a rock-solid base for absorbing even the hardest slapshots.
Progression of the True L12.2 Goalie Set
In 2022 True launched its second-generation stock set crafted by Lefevre. The True L12.2 goalie pad set is the successor to the True L12.1 model. Upgrades include additional HD foam padding throughout, a new "Fast Glide" material on the inner edges, allowing for better slide feel and movement in the crease, and reinforcements with double-layer Jenpro material on high-wear areas.
| 👍 Pros |
|---|
| These pads fit like a glove. They have held up well playing a dozen times a week. |
| If you have the option, get Trues. There’s a reason they’ve completely taken over for goalies in the NHL. It’s an amazing product. |
| I love the 580 break glove, only available through True or CCM. |
| 👎 Cons |
|---|
| The 12.2 slide is okay, but there are better options out there. My 1X’s took less effort to push. |
| I’ve found that True pads fit large because of the flat boot. I'm a 34 in CCM/Bauer but need to go down to 33 for True pads. |
| I have played around 25 games, and I still haven't been able to break in this glove properly. It’s still very hard to close. |
The True Goalie Pad has a simplified strapping system across the back of the leg. So for players who want a pad that's connected to their legs, True came out with this strapping system and nicknamed it the FRS or the "fast rotation system". They're very light and have a great feel on the body. The main selling point of True is that it's made in one factory in Montreal. Some people like to know that, say, Jordan Binnington of the St. Louis Blues, his gear is being built directly next to theirs by the same designers. People are willing to wait longer and pay more for that kind of craftsmanship.
