i keep forgetting to look for them i want a pair because i think they look cool. i've only gotten one blister. but my hands get sweaty but the main reason i want them is cuz I think they look cool
You get blisters because of too much friction from the stick to your hands. Maybe your hands are rubbing on the stick too much.
Otherwise, you could just get some regular garden-working gloves. They work fine and won't give you blisters.
There are special gloves online that have a little hole to help keep the stick in your hand.
I dont use em, xept we do have to wear gloves in marching band which is RETARDED because their slippery and i cant tell u how many times me and my friends have dropped our sticks when we're practicing. But we're trying to get our band teacher to let us get white ones with grips so no one can tell the difference. hopefully he'll let us.
but w/e i just kinda got off subject...... sorry......... lol

HAHA that sucks were not allowed to use them (although i probably would anyways)
R.I.P. Vic Firth Ralph Hardimon's you were my favorite
I got a pair with some Zildjian cymbals I bought a long time ago. They're garbage. You can have 'em. I just can't feel the sticks well enough with gloves.

I never did understand guys that play with gloves. I think most of them just want to look cool. It doesn't help your playing.
Drummer Chicks Rule
well.. sometimes i does help if u have hands that swet alot or if you need a little extra grip..
But i do agree with you..mostly used for looks
SOME do say that it prevents blistering for playing...in my experience it does not and if anything it prevents ur hand from toughening up...so give ur hands hell in hope of it making ur hand stronger in the future.

I use to have blisters in my hands and all that stuff plus my hands are very sweaty so I use to drop my sticks alot … Until I thought of this great solution… I used tennis grip tape on my drum sticks!!!
It really felt great to play and more controllable. And yes they are comfortable and no more injures happened since then..
PS: I used the thick Grip tape which made of rubber and I think there is cotton layer on the other side which makes it more comfortable.
Here are some pictures... Its not that clear but i think it'll do.
I hope u like it... Have fun
Just use hydrocortisone on your blisters. If you are gonna get gloves, just get a pair of baseball batting gloves. the cheap kind.

yeah i just got my first blister from drumming it sucked i still had to play in band and i had like no skin right where my hand meets stick but i`m ok now it`s healing i just like to whine and complain
Oh tell me where your freedom lies
The street are fields that never die.
Deliver me from reasons why
You`d rather cry
I`d rather fly.
same here...
