Glammed-Up Golf Gloves
Cigar Aficionado
|March/April 2024
In the dream scenario, you return to your regular weekend foursome on opening day with a brand-new swing, devoid of that accursed slice or nagging hook.

When that doesn't happen, think instead of improving your look by giving your glove some color.
"People are turning to color more and more to speak to their individuality, to look and feel unique," says DJ Zabkar, senior product manager, gloves, for Footjoy, the leading producer of golf gloves in the world. He explains that roughly 95 percent of gloves are white because top-tier golf gloves are made from supple, but strong cabretta leather (sheepskin), which arrives from the tanner in a white or pearl color. But they don't have to stay that way.

Drive A Tank
At more than 3,000 pounds, a Chevy Malibu is a formidable vehicle with a crash-safety test rating of five-stars. But against a 60-ton Chieftain tank, it’s a mere speed bump. That is, if speed bumps came with the sound of crunched steel and shattered glass. Driving a tank that’s the weight of 20 Cadillac Escalades over a junked auto is the “Crush a Car” option of Drive A Tank, the Minnesota facility that offers customers maximal military sensations you’d otherwise have to enlist to experience.
