Just because I have 3 sets of gloves to match my kit, it doesn't mean I want them all eaten by horrible grips!
I like to buy new ones for no good reason, rather than out of necessity  ;)

There's no maybe about it, as you've confessed to your crime I think you should get 7 days to rectify the issue, then a ban for breaking forum rules of not having hundreds/thousands of pounds worth of unnecessary kit  ;)

3 grips for me. Bottom grip is always a ripple followed by 2 of whatever else I have. I do prefer the top grip to be white though.

Currently goes ripple, chevron and then scale.

When you've got a missus you'll learn, showing them a worn/ripped pair of gloves give more than enough reason to buy a new pair(she may even get her purse out to pay), pads to match and bats as the last one was faulty.

Where as merely hoarding them while all shiny,  leads to suspicioun, sneaking about and divorce!! Or even worse a stop on kit buying shenanigans. Noooooo

Well I'm not an octopus so carrying 4 pairs of gloves "just in case" is seen as overkill by some  :-[

That said we have guys playing 5th team who use a test standard thigh guard, then face 35mph bowling every week. Even if anyone was bowling at 90mph, on those pitches it isn't likely to get above ankle height, I'd say that's overkill personally but I never question them about it! :D
