My daughter was complaining of shock off the softball bat hurting her hands, especially with the lighter composite bats, but these gloves have cut that down considerably. Great purchase.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not the Best Quality
Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2019
Verified Purchase
My daughter loved these gloves. She said they fit great and they helped reduce the sting on her hitting. The problem was the durability. I purchased these in March. By early June they were completely tore up from I'd say about 30 hours total of just regular batting use. Sure my kid plays a lot of ball, but 3 months? Come on. Fortunately they're not too expensive so replacing is not too big of a deal. But I thought Franklin was supposed to be high quality. I guess not so much.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best batting gloves I've ever had
Reviewed in Canada on September 16, 2018
Verified Purchase
Fantastic cushioning. Not sure about durability yet. First glove to I've ever had to that fully prevents blisters

Update -- quite durable so far. Lots of BP and several games and no issues. I'm only buying this glove as long as it's available.

Further Update, same pair, still going strong, after more batting cage sessions and AB's than I care to admit. Starting to show some signs of tearing, but I'm beyond happy with this glove. I'm a little concerned that their changing the padding pattern to reduce the amount of padding, looking at the new model on Franklin's website. I don't wear these for vibration -- I wear them to prevent blisters. So I purchased another pair so that I have enough for the next couple of years at this pace :)
