This glove features an ultra-grip palm for maximum control and unbeatable traction on every sweep. The high-tack grip material is designed for maximum performance. The grip of the glove combined with the textured grip on some curling broom handles can cause the palm to wear. For this reason the MaxGrip glove may have a shorter lifespan than gloves designed with a more moderate grip. Best for those curlers who want extreme grip and are willing to trade some longevity for enhanced performance.
