Gray-Nicolls Classic Players Edition Wicket Keeping Gloves

You’re in safe hands with the Gray-Nicolls Classic Players Edition Wicket Keeping Gloves, a Test-level pair of gloves with a flexible octopus grip to ensure you can make effective grabs.
Whether you’re reacting to obscure spin or diving to catch knicks, the Gray-Nicolls Classic Players Edition Wicket Keeping Gloves help you securely snare the ball. Made from premium leather, the glove uses T-shaped webbing to trap the ball in your hands, while the updated octopus rubber grip is flexible, durable, and has a large surface area, helping to minimise drops or fumbles. Ultra-light thimbles with vapour foam inserts and XRX layer backing take the edge off the ball as it enters your gloves, ensuring you can stay effective when trying to dismiss the tailenders in the final innings. The square leather cuffs are padded with HD foam in a streamline design, ensuring you’re well-covered but still able to make quick grabs.

Wicket-Keeping Gloves

An essential bit of kit for every keeper, a good pair of wicket-keeping gloves can make the difference in any game of cricket, ensuring you hold on to match-winning catches thanks to their grippy designs. Even more importantly, they help protect your hands, reducing the risk of injury as you gather in fast deliveries.

When selecting a pair of gloves, the key factors to consider are comfort, grip, and protection. Therefore, you’ll want to look at the quality of materials used for the backhand and interior, the grip pattern used on the palm, and the type of padding or reinforcement in the palm, fingers, and wrist. All these elements play a role in the performance of the gloves and are reflected in prices, from entry-level options to premium, pro-standard offerings.
