Sam’s Club takes DEAD AIM at Costco Golf!

[@AZstu324]

Circling back with a personal update on these gloves. Picked up a pack and played a round today. These are fantastic!! I wouldn't really say lower grade leather either. They're just slightly thicker but very nice. Very soft with some good tack. I like my gloves to fit tight and then stretch into my hand movement. These did that perfectly! The Velcro is more than adequate and i actually think it's better than the K-sigs. With the Kirklands, after a while the soft part of the velcro seems to pull away and get kind of fluffy and not work as well after a few rounds. I can't say that it won't happen to these so time will tell. The grab on the Velcro though is plenty and never came undone. The comfort was really good for the entire round. It's cooler here so time will also tell what happens when hands get sweaty in 110° heat. The looks are so much nicer and I think more premium than the K-sigs. Just very clean. After 1 round with full chord grips, I can't see any wear. Finally, and this is a huge positive, but after I got got home I tried on each glove and they all fit exactly the same! That in itself is a major win over the Kirklands. Overall I'm VERY happy with these.

[@LetsPlayThru]

Awesome to hear, Stu. I think they’re more sticky and more durable too. Def a win!

[@baseballfan9848]

Gabe - always a fun time watching you and seeing your content. You break down almost all of the subtleties of a golf glove, holes, velcro, fit, feel, tackiness, etc.. I just about always have a glove on on all shots. I have not always seen eye to eye on our insight on the logo of Kirkland products , but this time... yeah now I get it. I do like the subtle logo. lol Wet grip and houses in play -- " A bold move, Cotton! Lets see how this plays out"

[@es2056]

Excellent comparison. I have been using both for the last 2 years. To me, the Costco glove fits my hand a little better with the ML size, and with the Sam's glove I have to move up to a large. Both last a long time, better than most of the big brands. And at $5.75/glove this is HUGE! In my experience the Costco cabretta is a little smoother and softer, but only by a skosh. It looks like the Costco Kirkland is modeled closely after the Titleist Players glove and the Sam's Member's Mark after the Nike Tour Classic 4. I stock up on these whenever I go to either store, at $22.99 per package you hardly feel the pinch. I watched your video last night and today I went to Costco to stock up based on your report that the price has gone up. They are still at this price but the stock is limited as are the sizes. I had to settle for Medium (bought 3 packs) and bought the last ML they had for my nephew as a Christmas stocking stuffer. So, many thanks for the heads-up.

[@michaelfreeman4250]

I have been playing the Sam's Club glove for A few months now and they have proven to be more durable than the Costco gloves.

[@Mew-269]

Is "more durable" that important of a quality in terms of golf gloves? I would rather have a really nice soft glove even if I need a few a year..

[@gr8scotrolls]

I've been using these since the beginning of summer when I stumbled across them in my local Sam's, they were located around the summer seasonal items for outdoors. Recently picked up a second pack but am still playing the last two from the first pack. That included a golf trip where we played 90+ holes in two and a half days. I use my gloves only for full shots and typically switch between two gloves every couple of holes to keep them fresh and lasting longer, it's humid most times in AL.

[@RaidersGolf19]

I agree with the comments above wholeheartedly. Regarding the looks… But in the end, I guess durability is where it’s at. I am in Canada and wish we had more options such as Sam’s Club. Great review and thank you so much!

[@paulg1358]

There is a Sam’s Club in Coquitlam!

[@JonathanPajakLensCulture]

Bro these members mark gloves been out for like year or two

[@El_Oso77373]

I play whole match with glove on. Driving, irons, chipping and putting.

[@LetsPlayThru]

Nice 🙌

[@mikecoughlin4128]

Same.

[@brandonmerideth7361]

Agreed

[@losova7543]

Same here, once the glove goes on, it stays on. I actually use a glove on both hands like Tommy "two gloves" but it's only because I've developed a skin condition. Two gloves or one glove and even removing the gloves to putt makes no difference, I'm just as bad in all situations.

[@Joker-yh2xg]

Thanks for the review as always Gabe! These have been around for a while now. I bought these at Sam’s club 11 months ago decided to give them a try. I returned them before using them as I found them extremely thick compared to the Kirkland ones. Just wasn’t a good feel for me being so thick. I’m sure they last longer, but being so cheap for a set of 4 I would rather the thinner glove. They definitely look better in my opinion though.

[@lloydwilliams4368]

Please try the 3 gloves from MG Golf. Two full cabretta and one with the black lycra knuckle vents. Seven and eight dollars.

[@codyr4816]

I’ve played both, and for me looks go to members mark, but softness and durability goes to Kirkland

[@rybolia]

It may just be me and my sweaty hands, but I can't use kirkland signature gloves anymore. It's a great deal and they feel really good out of the box for the first few times, don't get me wrong. However, after about 4 uses on the driving range, they really start to stretch out, and it feels like I'm wearing a large latex glove. I switched to using MG Golf gloves and I haven't looked back.

[@LetsPlayThru]

I agree, they don’t hold up when damp

[@AZstu324]

Love this! Ive been using Costco gloves on and off for a few years.. but their QC isn't great. In a pack, theres usually 1 glove thats under or over sized, and usually a glove with an extra long or short digit. Usually the thumb. I'm talking every pack that ive bought. Also their logo is just an eyesore. TBH Nobody using a K sig glove cares to announce to the world that they have one like Costco seems to think they would. These Sam's gloves hit the mark on keeping their logo subtle. If their sizing is consistent, velcro is adequate, and the leather holds up better than Kirkland, im sold! Definitely picking up a pack either way. And glove on for chips. It probably doesn't really matter but its an OCD/consistency thing for me PS Gabe, you may beed to get tested for malaria after dipping those gloves in reclaimed pond water.. 😜

[@LetsPlayThru]

Yes that was some nasty stuff 🤮

[@Buickman95]

Love your reviews!! Thanks for helping this budget golfer!!!

[@LetsPlayThru]

Happy to help! Thanks for watching.

[@ETBob51]

Last year I bought a four-pack of the Kirkland gloves. I didn't have much luck with them. My hand sweats a lot in our South Dakota humidity. After a round, I would leave the gloves hanging on some Velcro that I fastened to the frame of my golf cart. The Kirklands would dry very stiffly. They were not nearly as comfortable as the Puma gloves that I purchased later. The Pumas would dry as soft as they were when they were new. I am still using a couple of them that I purchased on Amazon. The Kirklands didn't last as long as the Pumas either. They would tear where they were the stiffest.

[@carldecator2970]

I’ve been playing the Kirkland glove for a year - they held up really well during the Florida summer. Saw your post and ordered a package from Sam’s Club to try them out. Good work, Gabe!

[@timconnors9292]

Haven’t played the Kirkland gloves. Did just buy the 4-pack at Sam’s Club. Took one to the simulator today and was very pleasantly surprised. It was a bit snug when I first put it on but I immediately forgot about it and used it for about 80-90 swings. Good grip, good feel on my hand. And one heck of a good price!

[@Recon388]

I concur with your review. Used Kirkland in the past and just recently switched to Sam’s club. They feel better imo and fit true to size.

[@tommoore-pn9ur]

Great review. My Kirkland gloves are a bit snug in the XL as well. And when I play in humidity it tends to be a bit slippery on the club. Definitely will try out the Members Mark gloves. Also, I wear my glove on chips as I usually do bump and runs around the green.

[@LetsPlayThru]

If you do try them, let me know how they fit and stick for you.

[@zanefoster9352]

Glove on every shot except the putter. Great review. I mentioned you and the channel on Facebook the other day. The Maltby Facebook was asking for reviews on Maltby clubs. I said you were the man.

[@LetsPlayThru]

Thanks for that

[@louiskynardjr.1871]

Interesting review Gabe! I was just in the Costco here in Tallahassee yesterday and saw the Kirkland Signature Gloves back at the $22.99 price for the 4 pack! I wondered if I was seeing it priced right because I just bought a 4 pack online 3 weeks ago. I bought another 4 pack just in case, the Costco glove is a nice less expensive alternative to my go to glove that is the Footjoy all weather glove. I guess the price war begins... good for us! 😁

[@LetsPlayThru]

Yes competition is a good thing 😀

[@nate19]

"Look at the drippiness" is not something I was expecting from a golf glove comparison. 😂

[@bob5365]

As with everything golf, prices are going up. I don't care what a glove looks like as long as it fits properly, gives me a good grip, and lasts a decent amount of time.

[@swimp15]

Costco gloves are great until they get wet. Bring a few extras if you might encounter some rain. Other than that, great Titleist replacement!

[@Evan_Rodgers]

Look at Gabe with the XL gloves 😂

[@tcofield1967]

Enjoyed Gabe's Gator Check portion of the review. Might be a few dollars cheaper but the drive for me would eat up that cost. There isn't one in the state of Washington. I could have the folks living in Florida send me a pack. Not sure if that would be worth the cost of mailing it. I might pick up a pack when I go down to Ft. Myers next month. Probably for general use either is fine though. I love the Kirkland gloves, they are all I play.

[@LetsPlayThru]

Also a water moccasin check 🤣🤣

[@tcofield1967]

@ well keep up the good work and eventually we will start calling you Chubbs.

[@PbD187]

I prefer the Members Mark glove over the K-Sig. The looks and the fit is much better. I take off my glove for pitches and chips.

[@toddc3988]

I am a HUGE Zero Froction glove fan boy. Comfortable, durable, and I love the design. Not sure a Walmart adjacent product could sway me but I am willing to try it.

[@zjeb67]

now that the weather is cooling in the northern states, I wear both a left and right kirkland. Looking forward to trying Sams

[@CinemaSteve]

I really wish costco didn't brand their glove the way they do. I like just plain, lowkey gloves but the Kirkland Sig on it just looks so bad.

[@jongeephotography]

No one's looking at the back of your hand. When you're swinging the club. Buy a glove that fits you and lasts decent amount of time....

[@jongeephotography]

Pro tip, always take your glove off before fishing your ball out of the pond😅

[@CinemaSteve]

@@jongeephotography But if I don't like it then I'm not going to wear it.

[@slave0102]

Absolutely. I use their gloves, and it doesn’t bother me but I absolutely agree their logo/font is hideous. I think it’s a reason why more guys aren’t buying their golf equipment. I mean they’re selling, but if it were a low key logo, refined, more guys would be open to having them in their bags.

[@cpri555]

I like the Kirkland brand but I cant get the gloves to last longer than 2-3 rounds. Where FJ will last me 6-8

[@mikecoughlin4128]

Wow! I wear mine, not Costco or Sam’s, at least 20 rounds. Do you play in 95d + or rain or just grip really tight?

[@454budman]

@ south Texas weather really humid and yeah i prob grip too tight

[@donnawhitfield6820]

I was in Sam’s Club last week 2 different stores and I didn’t see golf gloves. But I did watch a video of what’s new at Sam’s Club and I thought I saw golf gloves. The person with the video didn’t mention the golf gloves. I’ll have to go back this week and check for them

[@nickpritchard7130]

Looks like the Members glove is not as fitting due to a different pattern during construction..I am sticking with the original..Good vid, thanks.

[@jlnew10]

You seemed shocked that Sam's club was made in Indonesia but the Kirkland is also made in Indonesia. I'd be shocked if they don't come out of the same factory. I literally have a Footjoy leather glove that has over 300 rounds on it. I do have a package of Kirklands that have been sitting in the package for over 6 months in my bag waiting for the FJ to fail.

[@LetsPlayThru]

Shocked it was made in same country

[@nwluce1]

Cooler review I didn't see it coming I always use the Kirklands gloves great price but the extra large is almost too small they used to feature a double X but they don't do that any longer I'll have to try the Sam's Club as you were saying for you they're feeling a little bit larger and I think that could be just what I'm looking for.

[@LetsPlayThru]

Yes, nice to see that Sam’s is a true XL

[@jonbuikema7399]

Good to have another option. Nice review! Harder to find Med. Cadet at either store. I have had good luck with all leather Finger 10 gloves off Amazon. About $10 a piece. Durability is good while playing 2-4 times per week.

[@BadGolfer-c9c]

Walmart gave these away at the NW Arkansas LPGA event they sponsor. So far they are working fine.

[@glenburr6755]

I have been using the Costco gloves for a couple years. I think the quality has gone down a little. I wear men’s small. They are too big now. I have been using Titleist gloves lately. I like that the velcro is not as strong as the Costco. Don’t know why, it’s easier to open, less “thick”.

[@danmcfall2967]

I've worn those this entire season and love them, who doesn't love a bargain. I play the entire round with my glove on.

[@stephenscheibel4604]

I wear a glove 100% of the round. My grip doesn’t chew up gloves. I can play 20+ rounds before I switch. And that is usually because of sweat and moisture staining. Away from the video Legato Black Friday Amazon for $23 a dozen.

[@dustinriggs5497]

I've used these members mark gloves many times at the range and they are really nice for the price.

[@CM-qm8qn]

I've used both of them this season. The members ended up being more durable for me (the k-sig's tend to rip of you pull them on too hard for me).

[@LetsPlayThru]

I’ve had that happen too!

[@CM-qm8qn]

@ can happen to any glove but the ksig seems extra susceptible

[@rodpark9044]

Great video

[@CamMacMastermusic]

The answer is Winn 2.0 grips. No gloves required.

[@ooojonooo]

I've used both and honestly not sure why (because they both felt the same initially) but the Costco one lasts longer by, at least, double the usage. The Member's Mark glove ripped at the seams, velcro, and/or palm after like 4-5 rounds (none made it past 5 rounds). Costco lasts at least 8-9 rounds before any sort of ripping/tearing.

[@BruceOglevie]

I tried the Kirkland XL and I couldn't get my hand in as they were far too small. Are these a bigger fit?

[@LetsPlayThru]

Definitely bigger

[@jthomos21]

50 year old here, i go no gloves in my game. Gloves are nice for soft hands

[@damarapoledna3636]

When you form a fist both gloves look a bit loose. I like my golve to pretty snug so it doesn't negatively affect my grip. Also, need to get an idea of how many rounds I will get out of the glove.

[@cito4633]

I wanted to love Kirkland gloves, but I can’t! Went thru 3 of them faster than one FJ Weathersoft - FJ comes out cheaper!

[@shaylink]

Looks like the Kirkland was used? And Sam’s club new? Would a new Kirkland be similarly grippy? I love the Kirkland glove

[@solson223]

I'll take extra grip and cheaper price all day every day. Thanks for the review.

[@markzinda8863]

If you have longer fingers , the members mark gloves come a little short

The problem with the four pack of Kirkland golf gloves two gloves would fit and two gloves would be too small

[@douglasoconnor2351]

I know you did wet glove test. What about the member mark glove and sweaty hand? Seems like you would have issues due to less breathable.

[@carlosGarcia-xl1ql]

I love Kirkland golf gloves, Kirkland golf balls.. I would probably love the irons and driver if I could have bought them before they sold old and following lawsuits..

I take off the glove when it’s less than a full wedge… so inside of 80 yards maybe?

[@williamwetherington844]

Will have to check the local Sam's Club. They don't stock sports gear ever.

[@James_Vaughn]

I'll have to check for these at Sams. It does seem that Sams and Costco deliberately put out products that are basically six of one, half a dozen of the other.

[@nbargolf]

For me the kirkland glove over 2 rounds stretches. It gets bigger and doesn't fit as well.

Just buy good gloves and you dont have issues, and good gloves dont have to expensive. I use Wilsons from walmart and they are great at $9 each. They have extra layers on high wear spots and grip is excellent. Between 25 rounds and thousands of sim shots i only went through 4 this yr. I bought costcos once and the 4 lasted 1/2 a season or about 3-4 rnds each rounds to give you a comparison. Honestly, they’re junk and why they’re cheap.

@CinemaSteve it's bad because it wear out fast. I used to have a Titleist glove and stop. Now use TP Glove

[@CinemaSteve]

@@kevynkeo9003 Most people who use Kirkland gloves would disagree that it wears out fast. It’ll always be faster than a thick glove but you lose so much feel. A premium Cabretta glove that’s thin shouldn’t wear out any faster than a thin synthetic either. Lots of people, myself included, like thin gloves and deal with restocking them more frequently but the feel of a thin leather glove and a thick leather glove is night and day. I can barely feel my club when I hit in some cheap cabretta gloves that are super thick. That being said MG Golf gloves are where it’s at. Better quality and better QC than Kirkland for the same price just about.

[@kevynkeo9003]
