just used my Molinari glove for the 1st time yesterday. In the past I have tried the "sir", predator and longoni gloves. the first 2 gloves proved to be inferior quality and the longoni, along with being very pricey, also has a leather pad on the palm. while you might think this is a good thing, after some wear, the leather starts breaking down and leaving small little leather balls on the table surface. while I have used the Molinari glove only one session, I think it will prove to be the best glove yet! the small openings on the end of the fingertips was a good idea as the opening on the longoni was too far back for me, as when I was making rail shots, the fingers were exposed on the shot causing the shaft to side on the finger not the glove.
