Hate wearing gloves in the water, but need them at times. Had a strong north wind overnight that drove upper warm water out here on LI. Switched from my 1.5mm hot top to 2mm long sleeves/short legs and wore the new 1.5mm gloves, which turned out to be a great move.
I wish they would make them in blue or gray or something other than black.
Great investment, sizing is good. Quality is high. No leaky seams, very comfortable and stretchy.
I like the feeling of having control over my hands and objects in thew water, things get wet and slippery and these grip those wet things with ease.
I needed this sealed thin glove so I can spear and feel my fingers and not feel too bulky. Hands were warm and in control.
