I’m fairly new to offstring but have seen lots of offstring players with these white gloves and wanted to know where to get one ???

You can find plain white cotton gloves at most stores like walmart or target. Maybe even craft stores.

I’ve heard billiard gloves work well.

I’d go with the full cotton gloves. The Duncan gloves don’t cover the entire hand and you’re going to be using more than just the palm and your index and middle fingers on some of those grind tricks.

I’d advise against cotton gloves. The string doesn’t slide as well on cotton as it does on nylon. Plus cotton can fray and the string can wear it down fairly quick.
