Designed for Seniors
Valley Forge has long been aware of the nagging problems that bother seniors such as hands that suffer with arthritis, loss of hand-muscle strength, fit problems with gloves, wear and irritation problems especially in the thumb areas - just to name a few. This new Senior Golf Glove addresses these concerns as well as others.
The new senior glove features special sizing and new thumb seam design, to reduce irritation during play. Another unique design involving the mesh allows the glove to stretch at key stress points using Sabona® Thermal Copper mesh. This material is conductive to natural body heat as the body warms the copper, it in turn retains the heat generated and stores it within the fabric. Sabona, the copper wrist band company of London, has helped millions feel the benefits of copper. DuPont CoolMax® fourcettes allow proper venting and flexibility in between the finger areas. A unique shock absorbing design using Elasto-Gel™ (Southwest Technologies, Inc.) provides protection at two separate critical points near the wrist. The Sabona Mesh wrist band is enlarged for extra comfort and feel. The glove itself is made of premium cabretta leather with a hook and loop closure tab designed for easy access in and out of pockets. Convenient snap-on ballmarker included.
See why this glove is especially great for seniors.
