All-Star System 7, 15.5" - custom colors (navy/white/red)...

I'm somewhat stunned that Maddie has outgrown the largest "women's" size made by All-Star (14.5") - she's not yet 12yo!! - but there's no denying that it was time to move up a size.

Cool. I ordered the system 7 for my DD a couple of weeks ago. Helmet is on backorder (my DD wants the matte black/silver helmet). Black/silver for her, that's what she likes.

I'm still stunned that All-Star thinks women don't grow beyond 5 feet tall. They have a great product. They need to re-think the measurements of the adult female........

Eric,

Just curious, how tall is your daughter? We're looking for new legs for my daughter (5'5") and were interested in All Star. Thanks!

A lot of picking the right size depends on how the player is put together. My DD is 5'-3" - long legs, short torso. My DW (5'-7") and DD are about the same on ankle-knee measurement.

This is from about a month ago, wearing 14.5" All-Star Vela legs...

How are the 15.5" legs for width?

Really???? That's interesting.

I haven't compared them side by side yet, but I didn't get a feeling that they are significantly wider. Although I haven't tried it, people have told me (Jay @ NECC being one) that the All-Star plastic can be shaped somewhat (squeezed or stretched) to help improve fit. If I get a chance tonight, I'll take some pics. More than a few times, people have asked about Vela vs. System 7. It would be good to have some comparison pics for that reason alone.
