The New Balance DC 1200 Batting Gloves!
The DC 1200 gloves sit at the top of the New Balance protection range. Built for batters who want high-level protection without losing feel or flexibility at the crease. Designed to handle the demands of competitive cricket, they combine strong impact resistance with comfort for long innings.
The finger rolls use graded PU with plastic inserts and extra reinforcement on the two lead fingers, giving you confidence against faster bowling. A sheep leather palm adds durability and grip, with crosslink foam padding to absorb shock and keep hands steady through the shot.
For comfort, the gloves feature a double-sided sweatband, while a stretchable, ventilated gusset helps airflow on hot days. Both hands include side bar protection, keeping you covered without affecting range of motion.

FAQs
Who are these gloves best suited for?
They’re ideal for senior and club cricketers looking for top-level protection and a glove that performs across long innings.
