Title: Slazenger Gloves
Post by: MJB3 on November 12, 2012, 05:46:01 PM
Seen these on Sports Direct for £30 quid, which seems a good price since i need new gloves since my Puma 6000's are at the end of their working life. Anybody used these or something similar from Slaz?

I use the elites when I occasionally keep.
Good built quality IMO! Nice and comfy as well.
I did see them earlier on
Bargain at that price

do we know what model they are?
in the pictures they have Ultimate on them, which is top of the range and INternational level
but are described as Elite, and only county level

whats the difference? in pictures of the 2 gloves (Elite and Ultimate) Ultimate looks to be made of better quality leather

It says the Spec is of Elite gloves, which makes me think they're just elite gloves with the name on them for a higher price (rrp)?  But yes, I would say that the Ultimate would be better spec than these, and maybe have more water bottle pockets?

wont bother then, already have the elites (which are ok)
would love a water bottle holder though
