Title: Blank Bats Gloves
Post by: richthekeeper on May 13, 2014, 02:06:49 PM
I was lucky enough to visit Tai's cricket emporium on the weekend and picked up a pair of Blank Bats gloves. I really like the simple branding and the equipment is really superb quality. I haven't had chance to try the bats yet but I would urge anyone to give the softs a go.

Sounds like a little review coming on there Rich!

Ps would have to agree I have softs & are very impressive offerings!

i'm not sure how to review them - they feel nice on my hands though.

if it ever stops raining long enough for me to wear them in a game, i will.

I got a pair from Canners.
They are really comfy. A little tight at first but are now nicely fitted and snug.

Great value too.

I got some of the split finger design, asked for small mens, so they are a snug fit and feel all the better for it. Excellent grip, very comfortable and offer good protection - I actually gloved a pull shot against a quick bowler in the nets and felt not a twinge.

I'm not going to do a full review because let's be honest, they're just gloves.

However, what a lovely pair of gloves!

I've previously worn some mid-range Slaz and Adidas gloves as well as an old pair of GMs that were handed down from a pro. These are the first high spec gloves i've bought from new. I got the sausage style - I probably should have taken a picture.

They feel absolutely perfect on my hands - superb comfort and flexibility from the first wear. The best compliment I can pay them is that I forgot I had them on. The palms have excellent grip and helped me feel that my bat was an extension of me.

Really excellent product from Blank Bats and at £40 they're cheaper than the big brand version.
