Are senior gloves with intermediate palms exactly the same fit as regular intermediate gloves? Or are they slightly roomier?

Specifically the catcher. I tried on intermediate gloves the other day and while my fingertips were kinda pressed against the end of the glove on the blocker it was definitely still comfortable. However, the catcher was definitely not. Finger stalls felt cramped and was way too tight. So I ordered a regular senior glove. Thinking about it last night though, for the catcher there’s no real “end” on the inside like there is for the blocker and the glove is bigger overall than regular intermediate.

It’s too late to change it now for me anyway since I did custom but I’ve been using a pro stock practice palm glove and been fine so this is going to feel much better regardless. But wondering for next time if I should go senior with intermediate palm. My hand size is just over 7. In regular gloves, like snow or latex, I’m usually an adult medium sometimes small so didn’t really think to question intermediate not fitting.

Would an all green setup be dumb?

I’m piecing together a custom set one thing at a time. My favorite color is green so when I bought custom pads I went with all dark green and antique gold logos. I love them and think they look sick but not I’m worried I painted myself into a corner. My plan was to get matching pads and blocker. Currently my team used an off white for light jerseys which will look sick and purple darks which looks good with my pads and I think would look good with matching gloves. But we’ve been talking about adding a dark green jersey as a third jersey next season.

Would an all green setup look stupid? My pants would be the only non-green thing. I would love a set of tan but the closest ccm has is camel and it’s a little too orange for me. Plus the back of the gloves can’t do camel. It’s just beer league so my jersey doesn’t even have to be a certain color (as in I could wear a white jersey even though we’re darks for the game.) So I could just wear my purple jersey but I was stoked on having a dark green jersey too. Do I embrace the green monster look? Or should I just get white gloves with a little green added? I don’t have anything against white gloves but if I’m going custom I want them to look custom you know? Not doing the top level gloves that would give me more color options though cause I don’t need top of the line gear.

Pic for reference. I have 7.9 pads not tacks but going with tacks for the gloves but pads look basically the same.
