SS TON Gold Edition Cricket Batting Gloves
The SS TON Gold Edition Cricket Batting Gloves are premium sausage-finger batting gloves designed for cricketers who prioritise protection, palm feel and durability. They combine a premium leather palm, high-density foam padding with reinforced impact zones and a traditional sausage-finger construction, while remaining lightweight and flexible enough for long sessions at the crease.
The sausage-finger design uses continuous finger rolls rather than the more segmented construction found in split-finger gloves. This traditionally provides a more solid protective feel, making the Gold Edition particularly relevant to batters who prefer substantial, continuous coverage across the fingers.
Despite its protection-focused construction, the Gold Edition uses a lightweight build with a secure, flexible fit. This helps the hands move naturally during longer sessions rather than making the glove unnecessarily bulky.
What should you consider before buying?
The main decision is whether you prefer a sausage-finger or split-finger batting glove. Sausage-finger gloves use continuous finger rolls and traditionally provide a more solid protective feel. Split-finger designs use segmented rolls to increase flexibility and freedom of movement. Both can provide excellent modern cricket protection, so your preferred feel and comfort should guide the choice.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between sausage-finger and split-finger batting gloves?
Sausage-finger gloves use continuous finger rolls, while split-finger gloves use more segmented protection. Sausage designs traditionally provide a more solid protective feel, while split-finger construction can offer greater flexibility when gripping the bat. Both styles can provide excellent protection, so the best option largely comes down to personal preference and comfort.
What protection do the SS TON Gold Edition Batting Gloves provide?
The SS TON Gold Edition combines high-density foam padding with reinforced impact zones and a two-piece bottom-hand thumb construction. The sausage-finger design provides continuous protective rolls along the fingers, creating a protection-focused setup for batting.
Can I use the SS TON Gold Edition Batting Gloves for training and matches?
Yes. Cricket batting gloves can be used for both training and match play. Players who spend a lot of time batting in the nets may choose separate training and match pairs, which can help extend the usable life of their match gloves.
How long should cricket batting gloves last?
The lifespan of batting gloves depends on playing frequency, conditions and the quality of the gloves. After use, allowing your gloves to dry naturally rather than placing them in direct sunlight can help maximise their durability. The Gold Edition also has a reinforced palm designed to improve wear resistance during extended use.
