UA Strikeskin Tour Glove

[TheMoneyShot]

It will be hard to beat the strikeskin tour glove. It's expensive the the quality is top shelf!

[th6252]

They carry these at the local PGATSS and Golfsmith. I need to go a size up from footjoy/Titleist. Fit is similar to Ping gloves IMO. if you're a big UA fan, they seem to be as good as anything else at that premium price point..

Really love the work that UA is putting into their golf section. Just keeps getting better

I wish my GS carried the UA glove. Only way for me to get one is UA.com.

Going to have to stop by my local GS now and check it out. Needed a new glove anyways so it's worth a test.

Anyone speak to their durability?

[Warrick]

I have played about 80 holes on the simulator with it, no wear to speak of.

[Warrick]

I have their cheaper version (CoolSwitch) coming today or tomorrow to check out, also grabbed another StrikeSkin in the new camo version.

 

I actually may prefer it to the FJ Pure Touch, the fit is exceptional

I'm going to go the other way of most people on here. Played 18 this weekend (first time with the glove) and loved the way it felt but on about 11 the stitching started to open up and by the end of the round you could essentially see the entire back of my hand. It's the blue version and I'm going to return it so hopefully just a one time deal since I did really like the glove despite the massive rip

[Warrick]

Are you referring to the blue camo strikeskin?

 

Not good to hear....

[Warrick]

Wow, CoolSwitch is fantastic!

 

It is just ever so slightly thicker (not thick), still a nice feel on the club, yet has a bit more flexibility.

 

These are $16.99, and will be my new glove most likely.

 

2 excellent glove releases by UA, quite impressed.

Yes the blue camo one. I'm going to return it and give it another shot since I may have just been unlucky but the seam is the one thing you can't rip since it just gets way worse very quickly

 

Bought a white one too but haven't tried it yet

I have 2 of the normal white ones, one camo on the way, and now have the CoolSwitch. They will all get a run to see durability. I am not normally hard on gloves, so I expect them to last. I never get holes, or specific areas of heavy wear.

 

I tried the CoolSwitch on again and took some swing in the basement. I really like this glove, and the fact that it is $5 cheaper. The CoolSwitch has an area of heatgear fabric built in that helps the glove to be quite flexible, yet with a snug fit.

 

Hopefully you just got a "one off" on that bad one.

Me too! I'll revert back if I have any issues with the replacement

Has anyone every tried the new UA cool switch golf glove? I tried one on in store and it felt amazing wondering how they held up

[Warrick]

I have all 3 now, the regular SS, the Camo SS, and the CoolSwitch. Durability will have to be tested, but like them all a lot as far as fit and feel.

 

I have about 7-8 hours in on the sim with my first glove, no wear to speak of yet.

Thanks alot.. i went back and grabbed one of the cool Coolswitch to try out in the sim myself... So far i really like it, they fit very well and they wicked the heat excellently

tried the strikeskin tour glove on at local GS yesterday..it's a VERY nice glove! that said, it was not quite in the same class as the TM tour preferred glove sitting next to it on the shelf at the same price point...I am still interested to try to coolswitch when they start to arrive at stores; I prefer to buy gloves in person to make sure the fit and quality are OK

Give the Coolswitch a try.. i am very picky about gloves and have for the last few years only used the Titleist prerma soft but decided to test these out. It is a great golf... The fit is amazing and while it is not as soft as the perma soft.. it is much cooler heat wise.. going to get a few more rounds in with it to test the durability

Love UA products. Bought a strikeskin, I used it on the range for about 10 days, ~950 balls. I'm actually putting it aside, the reason is because, while it is one of the softest gloves I've ever used, looks great and has good feel, it has stretched out around the wrist like crazy to the point of being distracting. Some of the fingers are starting to stretch as well. I know ~950 is a lot of shots, but I've had better performance from my cheaper FJ and Nike offerings which I'll be heading back to.

[olsonel14]

I get all of my UA orders shipped free regardless of total, so don't mind trying out things, plus they do free returns now also.

 

How? Any tips?

 

The $21 version strikeskin tour is very tempting!

Got a replacement and it's held up well through a round or two and some range time.

 

Question - do people think these are soft? I really like the construction but wouldn't call them "soft" if anything closer to the opposite.

Ordered two of these the other night and they should be here on Tuesday or Wednesday. Went into golfsmith today and they had them in store, to me they feel soft and high quality similar to the titleist players soft glove.

[olsonel14]

I need my local GS to get these in - keep us updated on the durability and thanks for enlightening the rest of us!

Tried it on at PGA today, felt fine, fingers may be a little larger than other gloves in the same size. Soft, but I didn't think it was anything special. Unless there's a discernible seam or something distracting, though, I really don't think about gloves. I won't be spending $22 on these.

I wish my local GS carried these I stock. I can only get them online at this time.

[drew1527]

I will say that I normally wear a cadet large but ordered these in the standard large from reviews here and I'm glad I did because my usual cadet would have been small.

[ME27]

Just got this glove in the mail the other day. I used this for a couple range sessions and I really like this glove a lot. It shows pretty much no wear at all and I run through gloves pretty quick. This might knock my usual titleist players glove out of he rotation. I normally wear a cadet large and I ordered the cadet large in the UA and it fit perfectly.

[Warrick]

Just a follow up on an old thread, the Camo Strikeskin lasted longer than any other glove I have ever used, by about double. it is a bit thicker than the FJ Premium, but works well, will be my new glove.

Picked up two at Marshall's for $9.99 each.
