I Got Blisters On Me Fingers!

...Which is exactly why I decided to give drummers gloves a try. I have been drumming since I was 14, and in all ofthat time I never found the need for gloves...until now. Mostly it's because I now am in a band where we play multiple shows and many back-to-back. From the sheer amount of playing, my fingers are taking a beating. So I thought I'd try gloves. These AHEAD Drummers Gloves were the answer I was looking for. Full protection from nightly blisters, a nice tight, almost "second skin"-like fit, and a grip that gives me confidence when I play. I have what I would call small to average hands. I purchased the large size, which, although quite tight, actually give me the feel I both wanted and need when playing. These AHEAD gloves look and feel great and are a fine addition to my drumming performances. As a drummer, if you are new to gloves or just looking to replace your current pair, I highly recommend these AHEAD Drummers Gloves.

    Love these gloves. I do a lot of work and wash my hands several times a day, so they're very very dry and it affects the dexterity on the fingers. These gloves fixed it. I top it off with some kuiksort (a moistener used by bank tellers that make their fingertips kind of sticky but dry for counting bills. I rub the fulcrums and fingers, sometimes all that is leather (it's a plus for its longevity) and now no more dropping and slipping sticks and almost no adjusting. I get them at office supply stores or online.

  • Nice, sturdy and comfortable.

    So far, so good. I do not play for hours on end as some others might. But these work just fine for what I need.

  • Very good drummer gloves!!

    I bought these in June and now it is December. I gigged with them several times, and practice several times a week while wearing them for 3-4 hours at a time. They are still holding up. I get great control and feel while wearing them. I was skeptical about purchasing them, but I do not regret it.

    Do they run small or run big? I've had gloves that a medium was too large but another medium from a different brand was to small. How do i know which to order? It's a pain having to send things back and wait for the replacements.
