There probably isn't a great deal difference between them all. As they are fairly cheap you might as well buy one of each brand if you are going to use them for the foreseeable future.

to be honest i would prefer not to wear inners at all, but with the climate here I find I go through gloves like there's no tomorrow.
I have find the fingerless GN the best and I have tried many.

I've worn them for a few seasons then tried without when I was pretend batting for a wicket keeper in nets and it felt so weird, I didn't like it at all.

Since I've started wearing inners I've had all my best batting innings too even if some of them were at 11 just having fun

Annoyingly I spent 5 overs trying to get out to give others a go! Had I have bated properly who knows that I'd have got

And i didn't go in till the 9th over of a 40 over game

Think that's my issue too, think the longest I have lasted is five overs haha

I wear fingerless ones, and have done for as long as I can remember, tried batting without them just to see but it felt all wrong. Does mean I get a long time out of my gloves though, whether that's a good or a bad thing is open to debate on here!

At one point last season I was in a rush to pad up and couldn't find two different handed inners, so just turned one of them inside out to fit the other hand. Scored runs, ended up doing that deliberately for the next month until I persuaded myself it was stupid... although come to think of it I stopped scoring after I changed back to normal  :o

I have two pairs of inner gloves that I wash sporadically. Both pairs are over two years old and I certainly don't feel I need new ones because they are worn out. The only reason I have two pairs is because I like to play both Saturday and Sunday cricket and being pretty out of shape and particularly hairy I get very sweaty, so I have a second pair for the Sunday so I don't have to put on the damp pair from the Saturday. Same with my socks and whites.

How are people blasting through inner gloves in 5-6 games?

I have about 7-8 pairs in my bag at anyone time, all different makes, the fall of a wicket usually leaves me scrambling to find one for each hand, never been fussed if they match. Have had most pairs of 3-4 years at least and the only one's I've had to throw out have been where the elastic has given up the ghost.
