New Balance DC 1000 Cricket Gloves (2027)

The New Balance DC 1000 Cricket Gloves are a protective, comfortable pair of batting gloves for players who want solid finger defence without giving up freedom of movement.

New Balance has built these gloves around a graded PU finger roll, with additional protection on the two lead fingers and plastic inserts to help absorb the knocks that come with facing quicker bowling. The palm is made from sheep leather and finished with crosslink foam padding, giving a soft, secure feel on the handle.

Comfort and fit have been thought through too. A double-sided elasticated sweat band helps keep things snug at the wrist, while a high grade stretchable and ventilated gusset allows the hand to move naturally and stay a little cooler through a long innings. The lead hand also gets side bar protection for extra reassurance. A distressed print effect gives the gloves a lived-in, attractive look right out of the bag.
