Are these gloves good for sailing in general? The finger material will have to be thick enough to not get burned by a rope sliding at high speeds.

I use them for fishing in the winter. I don't have much rope to pull on because I am trolling and my hands are rough to begin with. They would work if you have to pull on rope. Fast moving rope may burn through the glove, they are thin. The glove comes to the first knuckle.

"Sandeep, I also have these gloves and they are great for all my needs. Keep fingers warm in the coldest weather and I compete with them in shoot competitions which require fast firing, reloading and fire in all conditions, never failed me once. Since they are very thin and stretch comfortably they will probably serve your need very well, however I have not used them for that purpose,yet. Hope this helps, good luck

I bought them in size s/m, my fingers are average and fit well, perhaps a different size would work better for you. In regards to your comfort question, yes, they are quite comfortable! , considering off course that they are made of special fibers, not the lightest or the softest but they work much bettee than other gloves with touch-screen features

The finger gloves keep their shape well with normal use. However, as with any product, it would depend on what they would be used for. Hope this helps!

Absolutely! At first they may seem very tight and restrictive as they are designed to protect your hand and wrist when you fall down on asphalt or cement which you do a lot of with street rollerskates but after a while they loosen up and your fingers can move very well but in the beginning they will be very tight.

I use these gloves to reach into my fish ponds during cold winter months. They are thick and designed to come up to midway between your elbow and shoulder with an elastic band covering them at that spot so that they stay up over your elbows and protect your shirt sleeves. They do grip well but I am not sure I would handle anything that required fine tune moves; their main attraction is that they come way up over my elbows to allow me to reach into very cold water

I found them cumbersome. We all bought a pair for a wilderness kayak trip in Alaska last year and the fit for me was ok. The fingers were too long so I had no dexterity at all. Couldn't size down or would have been too tight! Grip is good but if you are fly fishing, no way could you attach a fly or leader.... they did however keep my hands warm like a wet suit would.. if your hands sweat you would want to wear a liner. Hope this helps.

I would recommend looking for a Gore-Tex glove for the situation you are asking about. They will be truly water proof and more durable.

I really don't think so. After getting these I am not all too impressed with them. They fit tighter than expected and knife points go right through them. They are kinda slippery like wool or mitten style gloves. I went with hexarmor gloves instead. They really protect from cuts and lacerations on a level that is highly above the competition. look up their site you will love the gloves. They take a little bit to break in but after having them for 6 months they hold up well to the abuse I put them through. Hope this helps

These gloves will definitely keep you hands dry and warm. If you need to take your gloves on and off I would not recommend these. They are a snug fit which they are suppose to be- they would not be easy to take on and off. Also, if you need to have total movement during lobster fishing these gloves are a bit thick to give your fingers free movement- a bit stiff. I use them to feed and water horses in the winter months, they work well for that purpose.

I believe they would be. I've taken a few falls with these on asphalt and these gloves saved my hands.

They will provide moderate protection, but they are not thick. I think you become more aware of your hands because of the glove, which may help.

They will not keep hands comfortably warm if exposed to 10-20 degree weather for more than 15 minutes. I bought them for my wife to use during her commute to and from work. There are stand alone stick on pads called digits that you can apple to any gloves that will do the same thing.

I wouldn't recommend these at all for hot weather ... They are thick and do not breathe well. Try looking for a knit material glove with the nubby palm for grip.

these are not cold weather gloves, they're designed for hand protection/ shooting, protection from the elements was not in their design, yet perspiration will be expelled through material unless it's over 90 degrees, then your SOL

have only ever used them when in the water; in which case, they're profoundly warm; but dry and in the wind, I honestly can't say. great gloves, nonetheless.
