3 pairs for me although normally only have a match pair with the other 2 for especially sweaty days!

Never used more than one pair in an innings, my hands don't really sweat so no need to change, but have 3 pairs in the back in different states of health, one pair being broken in, one for matches and one for rough nets or to lend out.

@bk  - What brand are you using?! I was using GN Powerbow kit last season, and found the thumb always wore through on the joint. Changed to GN Prestige and no issues as yet!

@OllieWalker39 Using various Affinity softs. The gloves are very well made, well sized and last a long time. Especially like the towelling on the thumb for wiping sweat away.V nice touch. I reckon if you alternate gloves and let all kit naturally it'll be good for a couple of years.

May look at what I'm using at the end of this season then - although I've just found a load of "old" gloves and they're now my netting gloves (lovely pair of GM LEs, Newbery Thruxtons etc) - issue I have is I'm a raging badger, so my kit looks amazing (and makes up for my distinct lack of talent) and all matches; tie this in with me being knee high to a grass hopper (all of 5ft 9...) I struggle with different pads, such as GM, being way too big! Gray Nics seem to fit well (but are at the smaller end of MENS apparently)!
