Serious as cancer, But on the Real with a overlap grip some gloves may have their pads located in the right or wrong place and does the fit either tight or lose is better or not.

these are pretty good. But I opted to use no batting gloves and works best for me now.

wow some good 411.
Was using Mechanix M-pact gloves which have taken me 3+ seasons to semi-wear out, but wanted to try something a little lower profile. Had some old Dead On Phantom Grip gloves with the 3-fingerless design. They don't have any padding, but they have asphalt PVC grip, which seems to be as durable as the Mpact gloves.
Very nice feel, and to compensate for the lack of padding, I tapered my bat with an old bat grip instead of a knobgrip or GNR lite taper.
Works like a charm.

Ok then. I say work gloves with the tacky palm side. No padding so no worries. Not good for BP though.

WorkHorses are good, but i prefer the Spiderz. really good gloves. And a little 3-M never hurt anyone.

Try a Whip Strip in addition to your favorite batting gloves. Thousands swear by it.
Have seen guys who struggled with overlap & never hit one out before, hit it out using Whip Strip.
Check it out here www.WhipStrip.com or PM Coach as the store sells them too!

Work gloves get too loose and start tearing apart for me. I like my gloves like my women, stay form fitted, no padding or extra plastic/rubbery crap hanging off. $20 Nike's have been working great so far. Had some Louisville Slugger TPS that blew apart in no time.
Ok, that's a lie, I like a little padding on my women....

I stick with my Mechanix. My last pair lasted almost 3 seasons. The last pair of actual batting gloves did not even make it through half a season.
This for me as well. I use Mechanix or work gloves for bp so my batting gloves will actually make it through the season.

I've used the overlapping grip for years and I find the Mechanix gloves with the palm padding work best.
