I have your V2 gloves and love them. I would still consider you a friend but maybe you donāt feel the same way back. That hurts but I still be ok.
Can you imagine a textile fabrication factory refusing to sell any items the same color or shape as someone elseās? You know better than most that Knox are dicks about the plastic pads. You should be able to extrapolate that and realize that any other company wanting to provide gloves would face that same design constraint.
I would love to see the terms of your agreement if youāre open to sharing and think the factory wronged you. But as pointed out already, if you didnāt specifically pay for exclusivity (not just an NDA), it would be quite easy for a factory to change some design aspects and avoid legal blowback by selling a ādifferent-enoughā product.
Some wise folks would say, ālook forward, not behindā

Ugh, I did this on a Trampa enclosure once; I felt like an idiot.
@XBoard I recently noticed you called out @Skyart for āsupposedlyā coping your tires. Now, you call out @ApexBoards for coping your gloves. Did you get exclusivity rights from the Chinese manufacturers you used? If not, you should have if you want to make such claims against well respected vendors of this community. (Two of the best in my opinion).
Your accusations make you look weak, honestly. Iām sorry to say that, as I have been respecting you, and your company thus far.
In the future, you need to learn the room you are in.
Wish you the best otherwise.
(There is only so much you can do with tires and gloves)

Aside from accidentally stabbing myself trying to remove it, it wasnāt too hard to pry it up. The bond was strong enough that it wouldnāt come up on its own as well which is good to know. The vx4 uses a pot based control stick so magnets canāt fuck with it, but a loose magnet rattling around could mess something else up and also would just be annoying
That said, I donāt feel the apex gloves are a copy of yours to be honest.

I liked it way better that way.
It felt more familiar to meā¦

This is true. Nothing should be considered sacred (especially) if its made in China.
Also new products will take the best ideas from existing products and it happens all the time.
I feel a bit for Xboard, you probably spent quite a bit to have those made. But also should have probably seen this coming. Thatās why you can sit on a product and have to keep innovating in other areas- or products.
