Certainly not a bad theory although you bought the pads cheap so £32 or so on gloves ain't bad to be fair.
I'd also reccomend onlinestockist.com Ajit is the guy who runs it, and he's a great guy. postage is a bit steep but buy a few items at once and you'll save a lot. Plus the stuff he gets is straight from the factories I believe.
Harry, are your Super Test camo gloves UK mens or Indian mens?
Any update Harvey?
Cheers Harry (got it right this time)
