Taking inspiration from military-style gloves, the TK 3 Player Glove features an exposed knuckle section. This isn't just cosmetic, by using an exposed section, there's no risk of fabric tearing and making the glove unusable. In addition, instead of the rigid plastic used on many gloves, TK uses a flex-shield that further helps dissipate impact. The exposed palm offers enhanced grip on the stick, while the extended finger and thumb sections offer greater protection.
