HIRZL Golf Gloves

Attached Image: monthly_12_2011/post-224-064722800 1325311934.jpg

This isn't a full review by any means, but I did want to post some thoughts on HIRZL Golf Gloves. I know that Hirzl is not a household name yet, even among equipment junkies, but I think that it should be.

First of all, there are a few things that separate Hirzl from other gloves. Most important is probably the fact that the palm is made of Kangaroo leather. It's incredibly thin and provides great feel. In addition, it's noticeably tackier than any other glove I've tried. This difference in grip becomes even greater in wet conditions: when it's wet, the Hirzl is just as tacky as it is when it's dry. End result: no need for bulky rain gloves. Finally, the back of the glove is a mixture of cabretta leather and mesh which keeps your hand nicely ventilated.

I've gotten a few rounds in with the Hirzl Trust Control glove, and I'm definitely sold. This is a BIG DEAL for me since I haven't worn any glove in two or three years. The combination of added grip without any loss of feel makes this a winner.

I will post some additional thoughts on longevity as I get more time with it, but, in the meantime, if you have a chance to check out Hirzl gloves at your local retailer I suggest you do so.

I bought a glove like this last summer and am loving it. Great feel and good grip.

I've been using one of these since February and I'm in love.

Kangaroo leather - I'd never thought about it before, but now that it's been on my hand so long, I wouldn't mind covering other parts of my body with it.

This glove is definitely all it's made out to be. Each time I sweat through it and have to switch to my other gloves I'm slightly bummed out for the switch.

This glove lasts better, feels better, and grips better than the bionic. It is definitely worth the money.

Picked up my first Hirzl glove last weekend. Played a round with it today. Outstanding glove. If the 5x the wear claim holds up, the glove may actually be less expensive than the FJ sciflexes I usually wear in the long run.
I'll shoot photos here at some point...

I love my Hirzl trust feel glove. In my experience the five times wear claim is probably true. I typically need to change gloves every 3-4 weeks, and I have been using my first Hirzl glove for about 4.5 months now without any signs of it wearing out soon. These gloves offer amazing feel, great performance in wet conditions and outstanding longevity. Currently the best glove on the market in my opinion.

My first HIRZL Feel gloves finally died today after 10 months of service.
Amazingly the kangaroo leather palm still looks almost new - just a few more creases, and the grip is still just as good as day one, but the side cabretta leather on one of the fingers finally gave way. I have already ordered a replacement FEEL glove. I don't think I can change to something else any time soon.

I actually saved money. I would have gone through at least three gloves in that time period.....
