Have to agree that recently, I've loved buying them too. I wear them as soon as I get them, and try mould them into shape haha. I think they're not as good as bats, but you can get like 5 expensive pairs of gloves in place of a bat, so it kind of balances out! Nothing quite beats getting a bat and bouncing a ball off it to see it rocket off though!

Have to say, me too. Love getting them. Bats good, gloved better. Don't know why.

i like to buy gloves, love the smell of them and really do like opening up a bat box and looking at a new bat.

Why do we buy so many gloves, Ive ordered 2 sets of the new Kook ones from Jake,
one pair is the Legend Bubble gloves,
the other the Impulse 900 gloves.
Not sure why but just really like the look of both pairs, added with my Ayrtek elites in Green and i may have a glove problem but so do many others by the sound of it.

Far from a glove problem mate. At one point a couple of years ago when I first joined here I had around 20 pairs

Holy Crap 20 pairs of gloves
that is some going, best pair you own?
but i'm having a tidy out as well and will be getting rid of some pads and gloves later this week, plus some shoes as well

I've had several fairly good pairs, Bradbury players, Ayrtek elites, Kookaburra rogue 850.

Love the Menace mittens though.

Batting spikes. It's a hangover from my football days, I was an absolute boot badger, luckily sponsorships didn't see me having to pay for any boots or my goalie gloves, but at one point I remember having 11 pairs of boots and 12 pairs of gloves on the go at once. All in outrageous colours. I used to wear new pairs around the house til they felt like a second skin, same with the goalie gloves.

I still get that same feeling when I open up a box of batting spikes, walking round the shop in my Nike lunar dominates whilst wearing a new set of wicket keeping gloves to get them feeling just right would have been quite a sight for any customer who walked in!

Can't beat the feeling of a new bit of willow in the hands, but I pick up so many new bats every day, I guess that feeling is somewhat diluted for me.

For me it has to be bats, bats, bats....

[yvk3103]

Bats of course.

But apart from bats - bags, gloves and grips, have to get those new GM grips look top class.
