Hi,

In the market for some new gloves. Don't mind sausage or split finger style with great flexibility. I've used GN Prestige in the past. Ideally I would like pittard palms. Would be interested in other people's recommendations, please.

Many thanks for any help/advice you can offer.

Im using Hunts County Auras at the moment. Comfy enough, flexible and a variation of pittard palms.

[JTtaylor145]

Thanks very much. How do they compare to the Revolution gloves?

Currently got a pair of Dukes gloves which are holding up well, just got a pair of Bradbury Players gloves which out of the packet are awesome.

Best gloves I've ever had however were a pair of Mongoose split finger jobs. Could not have been happier with them!

Was it you that had the SS gloves listed on eBay? I was watching that but unfortunately couldn't get it.  That SS itself was pretty good with pittards 

[JTtaylor145]

Ah yes I remember the Mongoose ones, lovely gloves. I'll have to take a look at the Dukes gloves.

Yes it was me who had the SS gloves on flebay.

I don't have revolution gloves to compare them to mate.
I do have an older pair of Glory gloves (lighter than the Auras, and have standard palms instead of pittard) which are slightly less protective.

I also have a pair of triumph gloves. These are sausage fingers so less flexible out of the packet but excellent protection. They don't have pittard palms though so may not be any good for what you're after.

You also had SS pad listed but i see its no longer there. Is that still available?

Been using the Affinity Oxford Edition this last year, previously used my Ayrtek's with pittards palm but not found much difference between the 2 palm versions in all honesty.

I am using the H4L customs for matches and they are exceptionally good but a tad on the expansive side, i would recommend looking at their softs, i also have  apair of cicada gloves with pittards for nets that are very good too which might be worth a look at

The h4l custom gloves are very good indeed used mine all last season and gave very good protection level and are very comfortable as well

For 2017, I got @Uzi Sports Pro gloves in youth size. I have not used them in nets, yet, but just home trial feels very promising. The construction and materials are high quality including Pittard palms.

H4l custom are very nice
All affinity softs are similarly top spec
Asads Uzi range is excellent

But, I do rate ss top end gloves and slazenger top end higher
Another but, I'm incredibly picky with gloves, and I don't think you can beat, going to a decent retailer and trying loads
The difference in sizing and comfort is huge across ranges

My affinity gloves are excellent. Failing that my 2nd favourite are puma.

I've always preferred split fingers and pittards , but ever since getting a pair of Bas Players (sausage,  sheep leather palm) , they are my new favourite ever glove . I have 3 pairs but want about 7 more . Soooooo good .
