Title: Kooks Silver 2012 or Customs
Post by: 97notout on December 01, 2011, 09:35:34 PM
There appears to be so many quaility gloves on the market. I own a few pairs, not necessarily the top quality ones but ones that I like, anyway I digress.

I like the look of the 2012 Kooks silver, only thing is I'm not sure about the short cuff. I've been considering a pair of custom mades, either through custom sports or directly from Geoff Wymer.

So is it £70 for the Kooks or the customs.

The wymer ones I've seen on the forum look quality and am strongly tempted can I have your views guys. :)

my usual preference is a longer cut glove for reasons that have been discussed at length previously.

i'd say at the moment the top brands are producing about 5 models of short cuff gloves for every 1 long and the selection is limited. i'm very hesitant to pay £70 for a pair of gloves.

saying that i'm much more concerned about having a large catching area for my fat paws than anything else.
