The ifrothgolf review
The Players is Titleist's thin, feel-led leather glove, built from soft all-Cabretta leather and aimed at golfers who want the most direct connection to the grip rather than cushioning or all-weather durability.
What's great
The leather is genuinely some of the thinnest going, so you almost forget you're wearing a glove, and the feedback through the grip is excellent. Fit is a real strength: it sits snug and consistent out of the packet, and grip in dry conditions is among the best of any leather glove. At around 23 pounds it undercuts most premium tour gloves while feeling every bit as connected.
Worth knowing
That thinness comes at a cost. Durability is the obvious weak point, the leather wears faster than thicker gloves and most rivals will outlast it. There's almost no padding, so if you like a bit of cushion this isn't for you, and grip drops off noticeably once it gets wet. It's a fair-weather, feel-first glove, not a winter workhorse.
The verdict
If feel and a precise fit matter more to you than longevity, the Players is a brilliant, well-priced leather glove. Just buy in twos or threes, rotate them, keep them dry, and accept you'll replace them more often than a thicker glove.
