Unwebbed gloves
« on: November 17, 2011, 09:51:01 PM »
I think like most cricketers I have Kit acquisition sydrome (KAS). Bats, pads, gloves, helmets and keeping gloves. Of which I have 2 pairs of Bob Taylor 'Test' gloves. They are English style long cuffs and if I can manage I have some photo's.

They are unwebbed. I am old enough to remember Taylor keeping in unwebbed gloves and he was superb.

I'm thinking of giving them a go next season your comments or views would be welcomed.

you have found a good home here with many, many kas sufferers.

I am not sure what the average number of bats each member has, but I can't believe it is less than 5.


the gloves sound awesome, get those pictures up.

Will try them in the nets in January, haven't got the bottle to try them in a friendly (no match is a friendly when you want to do well) that will get it out of my system and I can use normal gloves that will give me some help. Like others I have struggled with webbed. Might even get one pair webbed.

Will still try and post some pictures of a bygone era and then consign the gloves to the cupboard only to be brought out for story telling  :)

Thanks to all for the advice, have sorted it, not the best photo's but better than nothing.
Must restrain myself and not put pictures of all my kit on. Patience is a virtue, apparantly.
