We sold out of our 2016 gloves so have brought out our 2017 range early for the remainder of the season, here's a sneak peak at the range.
We have kept the same look with just a minor cosmetic tweak, but still focussing on quality and protection using our 25 yr plus knowledge of softs to produce test quality gear at a competitive price.

We are now in the design stage for 2018 and wanted to know your thoughts on Pittard palms - we avoided to use them this fair due to a love/hate relationship among people we have surveyed but might introduce to one glove for 2018 - look forward to your opinions/thoughts and even ideas?? ;-)

I like the black better than the silver but would prefer more white :)
-
They look decent!! Have you got any plans on releasing a take down model in your batting pads? £90 is a bit excessive when you're only facing 70mph trundlers!!

Maybe you'll be happy with our 2018 range ;-)

Really great look streaky, just keep producing the sausage finger gloves, they're becoming like collectors items!
-
I like how the prices haven't increased but im not sure if there is too much grey in the split finger design, I can't make my mind up.
-
Love the colour scheme, with regards to pittard palms I think it's a good idea always last longer than leather palms
-
Pittard Palms for president!
-
Loving the black more and more! Would love to see pittards palms, but the current plans are equally as good in my opinion. And would love to see a little more detailing on the pads for 2018😉
-
Any chance of carrying the graphite colour scheme to the B3 logo so all colours match?
-
Still waiting for some colour in them.
No pittards for me.
-
Top looking gloves,really love the split fingers, are you really going to make us wait until 2018 for the plain white ones ?
-
I've had a couple of pairs of Pittards.
The first, Puma SE from 14/15 had a palm finished in a mesh and whilst it was good, it started to fray and wear quite quickly.
My second, this years Kookaburra Onyx have a much smoother finish and feel great and are wearing ridiculously well.
Given this, I'd probably be in for a pair.
-
You want the best of both worlds comfort and longevity, I love pittard sand think they last and feel a hell of a lot better than regular palms
-
i think both pairs look fantastic. i have only used pittards for the last couple of season. i really like the feel of them but also dont notice that much difference when i use my non pittards gloves although i do bat with inners so not sure how much difference this makes to the feel
-
Pittards all the way for me.
-
What would be the chances of a towelled 'sweat thumb'?
-
Both sets look quality.
What do people think about kangaroo leather? I reckon they're flexible enough while being tougher. They have a harder life than your average sheep/calf I would have thought.
You might get the odd 'oh poor skippy' but over there they feed them bullbars.

This is a great idea actually, can imagine such a small area would get saturated fairly quickly
-
Are the sausage gloves similar to the GN Prestige (look very similar on the split) - looking very good!
-
I much prefer the new graphite colour to the previous silver incarnations, top work gents :D
-
Hi Streaky, any news on some pittard palm gloves?

2018 will see a new glove with a pittard palm.
-
Will they be released earlier than 2018? Can't wait ;)
-
Sound good I wouldn't buy anything else, I hate sheepskin, those awful black or crisscross pittards.
It's all about cougar pittards.

Please say you will be doing an all white pair ???
-
I think they look too much like the SS 2016 range to me.
I would love to see the gloves follow the pads and be all white with the black B3 on them or whiteouts as previously mentioned.
Pittards v Calf Leather - Pittards offer better grip/performance IMHO but calf leather is very comfortable and have the thicker, quality feel. If I were a retailer, not that B3 or other retailers would do this, but I would always go with leather over pittards as a good batsman will need, at least, 2 pairs! ;)
