I really like Footjoy's magnetic marker they have on the closure tab of some of their gloves

I really don't like the name, but I would love to try them.
It's something I would be willing to try. I've tried some of these synthetic type gloves and frankly don't like them because they are too slick when wet from perpetration. Like the feel of a smooth glove on the grip but then again you have to be open about any changes until you try it.
Just checked it out. I’m never a fan of anexpensive new thing. I feel to break into a crowded market one must make a name first before selling something more expensive than the competition.
19.99/glove. Worth a try? Maybe. Worth 20/glove? Hard to tell. I would’ve tried one for 9.95/glove but no way is 20 a glove worth a try when 30-glove gets you kangaroo leather that never gets hard worn or torn.

There are some arguments against this of course though.
1. To re-imagine a product is not always cheap.
2. Try selling something cheap and then raising the price.
3. This isn't more than the competition, in fact its less than a lot of them.
I personally like as little padding as possible in a glove, but if they keep the feel close to a cabretta glove and offer superior grip, then I'd try them.
As long as it doesn't compromise feel, I would give them a try!
One of my complaints with leather gloves is the smell that lingers on your hand after you take it off. I would be interested in the smellatonics with this new glove. Yes, I made that word up.

These look interesting. My hands sweat a lot so a typical leather glove does not last long for me. If these gloves solved that problem it would be a welcomed feature for me.
I'd surely give them a try when I begin playing again.

These would be worth a try to test the durability on. If they actually do what they claim then the $20 is totally worth it. If not, well I've spent money on worse.
It's warm to hot (100+) during most of the year so a breathable glove is definitely of interest. Looking forward to your feedback.

That is the very first thing I said to myself, also. That being said, I'll give them a go. It's worth trying, IMHO.
Might have been the Bionic glove with a black palm. I used them for years and they last a long time. Received a couple of the Taylormade gloves in June, still have them both, dirty but still serviceable.....may have to give these a try.

As someone in the glove business it will be interesting to hear thoughts on slippage. Not glove to grip, because the silicone will most assuredly provide enhanced grip in many conditions, but slippage of the hand inside the glove. In some applications, the increased grip will create slippage somewhere else. Sometimes it manifests itself inside the glove where there is just a little extra room. I think the silicone grip will cause the wearer to drop down a size possibly or at the very least pay much more attention to a very snug fit to minimize movement inside the glove which could be quite unnerving during the swing.
A small company like this one can print whatever they want on the packaging without any real fear of ramifications. I’ll say it again, I’d be surprised if they were USGA conforming. They clearly have two different materials on the palm and to me are not “smooth“. It’s up to the USGA to interpret but as usual another one of their rules is ambiguous.

Yeah I am a little in the gray area on this one. I have reached out to a friend there for information. This part (from above) I think gives them a pass, because while in photos it looks rather large, the thin strip might pass.
"Material may be added for wear resistance, moisture absorption or other functional purposes, provided it does not exceed the definition of padding."
JB, how are the gloves performing thus far during your round?
If they do in fact conform I will definitely be giving these a go. Better grip, better breathability, more durable, machine washable, reasonable price point. If all that is true these gloves check all my boxes. Looking forward to their release here.

I was about to say, is this a golf glove that doubles as a flag football add on later in the day?
I bet it's crazy tacky though.
The additional tack is something that confuses me. My cabretta glove might wear out sooner than this CaddyDaddy glove, but I've never had an issue with grip.
It was made by Cutters. They make football gloves. Had a huge area on palm and thumb that was basically made of some material similar to what’s on a receivers glove. Not available anymore not sure why. Similar to these they were unavailable to try before buying and were expensive. To me, maybe I’m old fashion but 16/glove is expensive. Think stasof or Titleist players gloves. 16.99. Expensive. Screw anything higher unless it’s highly advanced and these look that. All I’m saying if I started a jacket company my first release wouldn’t be a 800 dollar jacket and say well there are other jackets at higher cost so we’re not expensive.
Only thing I can really find on cutter golf glove is this article talking about how Ryan Moore wore one for a while.

Does golf need another glove brand? Aren't they all the same? Yes and no, Cutters Gloves will tell you. Cutters Gloves is an athletic glove company that began more than a decade ago with gloves...
