A wicketkeeper's gloves have to do something batting gloves don't - catch the ball cleanly, every time, against pace, swing and spin. The Black Wicket Keeping Gloves from Fore Sports are built around a high-quality leather palm and reinforced webbing that grip the ball cleanly even on the quickest wickets.

Engineered for Clean Catches Behind the Stumps

The leather palm is the heart of any keeping glove, and we don't compromise on it. Our high-quality leather grips the ball cleanly off the pitch, off the edge and off the pad, with enough texture to hold the catch even on damp or dewy days. A reinforced web between thumb and forefinger keeps the catch secure so balls don't slip through when you're standing up to spin.

Soft inner padding takes the sting out of regular keeping. After 30, 40, 50 overs behind the stumps, even good keepers feel the impact build up - these gloves cushion the impact properly so your hands stay fresh through long sessions in the field. The anti-bacterial coating means the gloves stay hygienic across hot summer days.

Premium Velcro wrist straps lock the gloves to your wrists, so they don't shift when you dive low for a catch or stretch up for a high one. The flexible material across the back lets you move your fingers naturally, which makes a real difference when you're trying to take a thin edge off a quick bowler. The sleek black finish keeps things sharp.
