I've got 2 pairs, but usually the ones I use are GM 606s.

Do they have a decent amount of padding in them? I got some Kook Silvers and found that they are quite thin, but when I tried padded inners I couldn't feel the ball. So I may well just get them refaced.

Am slowly growing to love my Wymer customs, after months of bitching about them

an average amount i'd say.

i've gone from using short cuff to full cuff as well because i felt with the short cuff i was "catching" every delivery rather than "taking" if you see what i mean.

i could probably use a new pair though in any case. maybe i'll splash out - birthday soon.

Have you tried soaking your inners with water before you go out to keep?

I use Puma Chamois Padded ones and soak them just before I go to keep and then usually during the 25 over drinks break. Really does work in my eyes! You should give it a go.

those are the ones i have - they're okay but the thumb padding annoys me as the seam goes right down the centre of my thumb, so if i catch one on the inside of the thumb it stings! i usually tape them into place.

i'll try soaking them and see what happens!

What are the benefits from soaking them? I have done it a few times and don't really notice the difference I have to admit

The problem which I first had was that with non padded inners was that they didn't seem to fill my glove. Therefore they felt as though the glove was slipping off my hand slightly. Then when I got full padded inners they were too tight, and I found it quite hard to hold the ball properly. By soaking the inners they seamed to fit better in the glove.

I suppose that might not be what it is actually intended for but it works for me.

I've also heard people say that it absorbs more of the balls energy and so doesn't hurt your hands as much.

Just ordered some more VSports inners but this time full chamois, will give them a crack.

I would have a look at getting some customs though Tom - it's taken some time to fall in love but they are bloody good. Think I was just moaning for the sake of it - and it cost me �70 as I went and got some Kook Silvers!! They are bloody good as well though, so at least I am spoilt for choice

this forum has cost me �100's mate. I have sat here at work before, logged on to have a read and then spend the next 3 hours looking at thigh pads...it's a good job I have hit all my work targets this year..

agreed. i only joined a few weeks ago, since then i've bought three bats, 2 pairs of gloves, some cricket shoes and a grille!

mind you i have been taking my cricket much more seriously this season than ever before so a lot of my kit did need updating. on the sniff for a bargain pair of WK gloves and pads next...

Good man. What bats have you picked up?

If you don't want to go down the custom route, you cant go wrong with SS although they only so shorter cuff and the Kook Silvers are class

richthekeeper · « **Reply #42 on:** June 30, 2011, 03:24:08 PM »

i've been eyeing up the MS Dhoni gloves for quite some time now actually.

justnotcricket86 · « **Reply #43 on:** June 30, 2011, 03:29:22 PM »

I got some of them off Sam (peplow) and they were lovely, but sold them on to a bloke at another club as he needed some and I had too many pairs of gloves...quite a few lads on here use SS. Depends what style you like though.
