Title: Which Gloves?
Post by: Arthur on January 10, 2009, 04:37:52 PM

I'm considering getting another pair of gloves to go with my Redback's I have at the moment, and was wondering which of these two you like the look of most? Price is not important, and as a few of you have the new Newbery's, I'd like some more feedback on them.

Wouldn't mind to hear some other options some of you might recommend? Thanks

Cosmetically alone, I prefer the Newbery.

Are you definitely after splits? I've always preferred sausage - I have 2 really good pairs at the moment - some SS Super Test and a plain pair from Tom.

Yeah I am Johnny. I had some Kookaburra sausage ones last year which, although very nice, still weren't as nice to wear, for me anyway, as a pair of the split gloves.

Can't comment on performance or durability, but I sure like the look of those Redbacks!

Yeah so do I Adam, and if they are as good as the Surefire (red) ones, then it really is difficult, them or those Newbery's, even though the Redback's will be cheaper!
