Title: Joe Roots Modified Gloves?!?!?!
Post by: Kanak on March 19, 2018, 07:41:50 PM
Hi
I was just curious as to what gloves does Joe Root use. Sometimes he's in normal retail TC 1260s or DC 1080s but he's waring these for a while anybody know where I can purchase or if they're player exclusive?

Most likely a southern hemisphere release to hit us in May...

The TC1260 hybrid are the closest you will get, slight different colours on fingers but same glove.

Some one told me that the pro's have custom made gloves according to their specs.

That's the same league I play in - looks like i'll have to keep an eye out for Rooty on the boundary!

Are they not just his favoured DC gloves in a TC colour scheme to match his bat?

Note they are DC 1080s from last year, found here:https://seriouscricket.co.uk/equipment/batting-gloves/new-balance-dc-1080-batting-gloves-2017/
