B3 gloves review
« on: April 07, 2013, 08:29:25 PM »

After I went to b3 last week I also picked up a pair of gloves.

They are quite flexible not as initially flexible as the splits but that to be expected with sausage full length.

The materials used and the protection and comfort of the glove are as good as any out there I can see why the design of the don't apple appease all but they are top quality pair of batting gloves made from the old designer of a leading brand for over 20 years so I guess he knows what he is doing.

There plain and simple I like them and the sheep skin  they don't have the restrictive tabs on the end of the fingers and also the detail like the 2 bar side protection top hand and 3 on the bottom hand.

I leave th pictures to do the rest there my type of minimal colour and traditional style gloves.

Pics to follow

I didn't purchase the pads they for one didn't have my size and also although once again top quality materials are used i didn't like the top hat so i left without a pair.

I thought so - a poor man's GM L.E.

My belief is that Russell and Streaky will come up with something a little better for their second generation softs.

They look like low end gloves even though they have top end protection. I say they are quality gloves none the less

I agree to a degree the problems they faced to get any soft's is a tale in it's self but i do like the gloves as i said.

I showed them a pair of the trial pads the champ ones they ripped they tore them to shreds as you know Buzz not many know more than Russell about cricket gear and the contacts that man has is astonishing.

He taught me more in the 5 hours i spent with them than my entire knowledge before hand.
