Roll Negative Cut

A Roll Negative cut is a hybrid style that joins Negative and Roll creating a considerable amount of fit, feel and latex coverage. The fingers are rolled similarly to a roll cut yet the stitching sewed internally much like a negative cut. If you are a fan of a negative cut with that tight feel, you could have a surprisingly better fit with more latex contact on the ball due to the rolled finger profile. For keepers that use a more open or baggy cut you may need to consider going a size above when choosing this style.

GKO Neg Cut
