I currently have the Stay Soft and have looked for the Pure Touch with no success. I hope to find one this weekend and give it a try. I like the idea of not having to adjust the glove so often as Chris alludes to in his reply.

Does anyone know if Golf Warehouse carries them as I haven't been there yet.

They do show them on their website, but I don't know what they keep in the stores. I do know that the stores local to me have closed, so on-line might be your only option.

I have a pure touch glove,and must say it's just like Chris said always snug,and the feeling is as if you had almost no glove at all. Great job F.J.

I've been looking around at all the local shops and haven't been able to come up with one.  I'm not sure if this is just a local thing or what but I do know I can order them through my club.

If you are by a club, I would just ask if they could order you one from the FJ catalog.

Ok, I currently use the Titlest Players Glove...how does this compare to the Pure Touch?  Does anyone have any comparisons to offer?

Thank you

Yes, there are definite product and construction differences between FJ Pure Touch Limited and the Titleist Players glove.  Pure Touch and Titleist Players are both premium select cabretta skins.  For Pure Touch, FJ is looking for skins that provide a premium soft feel; Titleist is looking for skins that provide a premium thin feel.  Due to the fact that there are only so many skins that provide that premium soft feel, we are only able to produce a very limited amount of product each year ... hence the full product name; Pure Touch Limited.

Once the skins are selected, they each go their separate ways in manufacturing.  For Pure Touch, every single step in the manufacturing process takes great care to not only keep the premium soft feel, but to enhance it.  

Beyond that, there are construction differences in the products as well :

- PT does not have perf holes on the palm, Titleist Players does.
- Titleist Players does not have perf holes on the thumb, PT does not . 
- PT uses targeted zig-zag elastic placement on the back of the knuckles, collar and tab closure.  Titleist Players does not.

In the end, both are great gloves ... it really comes down to personal preference.  

Hope this helps.

Mike, thanks for detailed comparison. I had one of the Titleist gloves and liked it so now to find the Pure Touch and try that.

Mike, that was a great comparison Thanks!

I always preferred the StaSof to the Players.  With the PureTouch Ltd, I seem to be getting StaSof comfort and softness with even MORE feel, if that is possible.  The only thing I feel you lose is a little durability, but even the durability is extremely comparable to the StaSof or Players.  It's another great FJ product.

Silk... you lost durability with the transition to PTL?  I felt like it lasted longer and I have been using the same one for about 2 weeks and it has no discoloration or tears... still feels practically new.  My experience with the other gloves is about 2 weeks to the knuckle and they discolor a little before then.  Maybe I am being more cautious with this glove since I like it so much?  I'm not sure, but I thought it seemed to be a little more durable that most the other gloves I've used.

Finally just got my PTLs in the mail today - nowhere around me had available at retail.  Like everyone has expressed, the feel is great (as with ANY Titleist and FJ glove in my experience).  The biggest difference to me from the StaSof which I've been using, is that the PTL is a little softer and had unbelieveable tackiness.  Now I've only used for a day, so time will tell, but if the durability factor is good enough of the PTL, it'll probably become my main glove.
