Opinions needed...
« on: October 15, 2012, 05:54:42 PM »

Ok then chaps, i have been designing a few pairs of gloves and whilst im normally keen to stick to simple... i couldn't help but continue with a secondary design...

I thought i would get a general consensus as it may just me not being able to see the wood for the trees and liking something that could be hideous to the masses. So please feel free to comment.

A little too much going on for me with all the grey air holes.

Yep, thats been the issue i had with this... i may opt for a different more complete shape... it need something for ventilation but removing them completely made it a little dull. Appreciate the speedy feedback.

Change the black for white on the fingernails, then you got it.

Quick question/observation...The 'T' in the thumb-forefinger gap...Would that not promote the ball rolling up and out the glove? Just looks as if you're making a ramp for the ball, rather than a natural 'net'. Could be talking crap though!

they are one of the best looking pair of gloves ive seen ......... i'd wear them apart from the cup isnt big enough, it is way way too small to fit a ball in it comfortably

I like these gloves for the cup size .....

I like them, I'd take off the large AC, or perhaps just have the out lines of the letters for both a & c

Thanks for all the feedback, much appreciated as always.

It looks like these will be made after all...  :)

You can expect to see these around the second week in January.

Nice effort Marcus, i would swap the colours arouns on the fingertips a the bands on the glove so the fingertips where the brown/gold and the gold band was black instead

when will these be released?

I don't know how to put this, but, I'm kind of a big deal.

They have been specifically for a made for a young player and to match the work we have already done for him... hence the bling. As a lot of the other kit is black and gold. But I have literally got off the phone after placing a short run. So they will be available from January with everything else I have been working on but there will be only a very small number of these gloves and pads made.

Not bad for a part timer  :D

Really like them but i'd have to agree with Tom about the vents.

Ha ha... the wrist part is staying the fingers are down to two vents... after chatting with the chap that'll wear them... he just wanted a bit more breeze! Plus i like what he said... they'll look great in the papers if i snaffle the catch!  ;)
