Rugby is a winter sport. Here in the UK we know that better than anyone, playing and training in howling winds, frozen pitches and ice cold rain. Which is why rugby gloves are becoming so popular.

I remember when I first saw rugby gloves, I mocked and laughed at the wearer along with the rest of the team… and then I realised how cold my hands were. Now I admit I don’t wear them in games these days but I have changed my mind about them and use them in training… let’s face it, us amateur guys have to train in all sorts of conditions late in the evening – when it is at it’s coldest.

Rugby Gloves

They are certainly getting more and more commonplace too. Like scrum caps before it rugby gloves have captured something of a need in rugby players, and so people have started seeing it as more acceptable, and as that grows so to does usage.

I remember playing on some frozen pitches when I was a child, even going out on the pitch before the game to stamp the ice off the pitch. I remember how cold my hands got then, and how many children would cry because of how cold their hands were… so I can certainly see how rugby gloves could be something that parents would want to get their children. After all, rugby is a dangerous enough sport!

These days it is far from just children though, many professionals use them, some even in games. What is interesting is how they have improved to the point they can get used. It used to be that they didn’t give the required ‘feeling’ for them to be used in game, you lost a certain deftness with your hands when they were worn. But now the quality, technology and material has improved to the point where they can actually be considered an asset, not a liability.
