Advantages: Relativley Cheap, 6mm latex Disadvantages: Useless in wet weather
...overall an average pair of keeper gloves from a usually top notch company.
I have had uhlsport gloves in the past which have been excellent as well as having a reasonable life span. When i saw the pro special i thought I'd give them a try. I purchased them in black, white and orange although i think they are available in other colour schemes. They have the usual 6mm soft latex palms and 3D backhand technology which apparantly flexes with your hand.
Unlike other keepers gloves that contain finger support or anatomically moulded in the shape of your hands, this glove has nothing. They are very flat and plain.
The gloves were ok until the palms began to age, these were brought back to life with a quick hand wash. After a while though general wear and tear crept in and the gloves were past rescuing. The grip in the palm began...

Advantages: Amazing comfort, fantastic grip, great looking pair of gloves Disadvantages: A little bit expensive
...with the perfect pair of gloves for me.
After a long while, I had eventually got the long list down to two pairs of gloves. They were the Uhlsport Absolute 360 Touch and the Nike Vapor Grip 3. They were quite evenly matched, apart from one thing, the Nike Vapor Grip 3's are worn by Arsenal and Germany's number one goalkeeper Jens Lehman. Well, being a dedicated Arsenal fan at the time, this swung the Nike's in my favour, so it was these I decided to get!
PACKAGING
After about two weeks of (anxious) waiting, my gloves arrived. I undid the secure wrapping and got my gloves out with their own special wrapping. The wrapping is like a bag, with some vents on the side, and a see-through front so you can see you product. On the back it is card, and here there is some information on the gloves inside and a small picture as well. I think that the packaging...

Advantages: Comfortable Reasonably Priced Disadvantages: None that I have found in a lot of wear
...I would like to tell you about some very comfortable gloves that I have found.
They are made by Specalized, who make a very wide variety of products for the cyclist.
First I will discuss cycling use, then the photographic use.
First cycling. The gloves are sturdily made of synthetic leather palms, With foam/gel pad combination at the base of the thumb and across part of the palm.
The back of the glove has a terry wipe and is mostly made of spandex for a smooth easy stretchable grip.
The mitt comes up to the first joint on the fingers.
The padding is specifically sited on these gloves to help to reduce pressure on the median nerve in the palm of the hand which can cause a medical condition. The other affected nerve is at the base of the wrist which can cause
numbness in the hand. These gloves were designed to help reduce...

I paid around £30 for this, from a local beauty salon. You can buy this from any local dermalogica stockist (hair and beauty salons) or purchase online. £30 is about average for this product, but you can get it cheaper.
