The Digital Shield is a patented, streamlined, open-palmed glove designed for the bottom hand (the right hand for a right-handed golfer or left hand for a left-handed golfer). It protects the thumb, index and middle fingers from rubbing against the club’s grip while still maximizing tactile sensitivity.
The concept of the Digital Shield was born out of a need to solve the problem of chafing on the bottom hand and to offer a better alternative than the current “Band-Aid solutions.” Full and half-fingered gloves are unnecessarily hot, provide excess grip, and compromise feel for the club. Band-Aids® or adhesive tape tends to roll up or shift with repeated swings and leaves a sticky residue. Replacement bandages are even less effective as they often do not properly adhere to a perspiring hand.
Finally, the Digital Shield…the solution to many golfers' nagging woes! By reducing the incidence of blisters, the Digital Shield improves athletic performance by having golfers play in more comfort, and fosters the additional enjoyment of golf by allowing golfers to put their focus where it should be – on their game.
The Digital Shield is manufactured with:
- Cabretta leather specially engineered to remain soft to the touch and keep its shape
- Leather-on-leather reinforcement on the thumb, index and middle fingers
- Coolmax® mesh whose wicking properties pull moisture away from the skin
- A spandex gusset that conforms to the unique contours of your fingers
- An unrestricting neoprene wrist band
