Back in the day, the best glove was Sir Joseph, I alway had one in my case just if conditions required one and except for a short period of time that I used a glove to see if it's better, I hardly used it.

These days with CF shafts, a glove is a must to have. I like the new type of gloves with the cut fingers.
I got a Rhino glove first, it's nice, a bit thick but the main issue is the seam at the end of the fingers is really thick and annoying.
Then I got the Predator second skin glove. It's nice and thin but after a short while it falls a part...

What glove do you use?
How long does it last?
Do you wash it? and how?
 
i have two main requirements:
- finger cuts
- long fingers

Tried several gloves with Cuetec among them and found that it doesnt do its job as finger are too short abd than cue slides over my sweaty fingers. Not good.
Cuetec has great build quality just looking at It. As it failed with my I gifted it to a friend.
My glove of choice is Taom XL. Realy nice glove.
Second one I am using now. First one teared after a while and I am satisfied with how long it lasted. I found that to be because I tend to slide my hand over the table when creating a bridge so it teared at the root of the palm and top of midle finger.

Every glove will fall a part at some point. Friend has sam glove and his unsawed at wrist probably because of the way he pulls it when puting it on.

I wash it wearing it and like washing my hands with couple of squeezes after.

I like the predator 2nd skin but kamui gloves are good as well. When they first came out they didn’t last long for me but I learned that when you put it on or take it off to pinch it where the extra padding is on the palm. They are super thing which is great but they can also tear easily. I also take a minute to hand wash mine with dawn in a plastic dish once a week. Takes a minute and then let it air dry. I play every day and my glove lasts 9 months to a year it seems.
 
My Predator glove is about two three months old

A perfect example of strain caused by constant fist-pumping.

I use Predator second skin now. I have used a glove for over 20years, started with Sir Joseph and then for a long time played with a bag of 20 cheap gloves I bought from Ebay buck apiece. Need to have open fingers and needed to cut the fingers open so now I prefer Predator but I have to admit Taom felt sturdier and more supportive.
 
Temu
Seems to last but it doesn't matter since I got twelve for $6. They are all black.
I wash them with my regular clothes washes.
My more expensive Temu is that below at $4.

Lately Predator but have also used Kamui and Molinari in the past and they're all pretty similar in quality and longevity for me.

I typically have two quality gloves in rotation, that way I can swap in a new one and toss the other in the laundry. Doing that will last me anywhere from 1-2 years I'd say. The palms and stuff get worn but until there are large tears or something I don't typically see a need to replace them.

They're not cheap but I've been pretty happy with how much wear I get from them. I think it helps to wash them every now and then.
 
Most of the “higher end” ones are good. I’m a big fan of the pagulyan glove along with cuetec and kamui. I tend to switch around and go through a lot of them so when I find one I really like I’ll buy 5 or so of them
 
I bought a Predator glove and it fell apart within a few weeks.

Bought a Cuetec glove and it's been amazing. It's been a year and still going strong.
