Sweet 16 Third Round, Games 5 & 6

First Matchup:

VSPF vs APFLT

The next round of Glove Madness took place pitting perennial favorites #3 seed Ammex Powder-Free Textured Latex (APFLT) against #2 seed Ammex Powder-Free Stretch Vinyl (VSPF). Both teams sported a strong defense with their Exam Grade offering barrier protection against blood borne pathogens. Heading into the game many favored the APFLT with their Textured Fingertips for a better grip, but it was the VSPF’s ability to fit and feel like latex without any chance of adverse reaction that proved to be the winning combination. With latex prices at an all time high, the Ammex Powder-Free Stretch Vinyl proved that this synthetic glove is the perfect fit and will definitely give Ammex Powder-Free Nitrile a run for their money in the Elite Eight. Check out that match on Friday, March 25th.

Winner: Ammex Powder-Free Stretch Vinyl (VSPF)

Second Matchup:





GPNB vs GPX3

Coming out of the GlovePlus bracket, we have our #1 seed GlovePlus Black Nitrile (GPNB) going head to head with #4 seed GlovePlus 3mil Vinyl (GPX3). Both teams are relative newcomers, so anticipation was in the air to see how they would compete against each other. GPX3 started out fast and agile – using their Thin-wall Technology to show they had what it took to be the right glove in light duty applications while also showing off their always appealing low prices. But, proving why they owned that #1 seed spot this year, GPNB dominated when it came to longevity and durability. Their Black Nitrile had the strength to last longer and handle more wear-and-tear than their opponent and also show no signs of weakness through their tough black exterior. GlovePlus Black Nitrile brought it – and they will have to bring it again on Monday, March 28th when they battle Ammex Powder-Free Vinyl in the Elite Eight.

Winner: GlovePlus Black Nitrile (GPNB)
