Willowisp: Size (L) fit like a glove and protects my hands hiking and walking. No need for taking off gloves for phone or getting special touch gloves. Great protection and comfort. My wife has had this brand for years and they hold up well for daily use. I was a come lately user and am pleased I finally tried them.

hayley: I use these on the river kayaking a lot. They're the only gloves I will use for whitewater kayaking because the grip feels so natural that the paddle won't slip in my hand. Also great for rigging rafts and just protecting your hands from the elements while allowing for dexterity. Also awesome for kite boarding!

Martiñon: los guantes son de calidad por la que pagas, cómodos y sutiles en este color plano, te protegen bien no te calientan las manos a pesar de ser sintéticos, el único pero seria que no cuenta con la pieza para sacarlos como otros guantes tienen.

Richard R.Richard R.: Purchased for driving to protect hands from sun and so far they work great. I am very pleased with them; I super like the extended wrist length. I chose the fishing glove design 'cause driving gloves all looked heavy and too tight when gripping the wheel or shifting and I found none that extended past the wrist. These are lightweight and so far have not been hot even tho they are completely synthetic fabric; even if they might get a little warm in the hot summer days - I don't care, I don't want any more sunspots. The leather palm pieces are in the right spot, for me, to hold the wheel with a good grip and are not in the way of performance for my need. My hand measurement is right on the line 'tween medium and large so I chose the large to reduce the chance of any seam ripping with use. I have a slim hand and these are not too loose nor do they bunch up when fist is closed even they might appear a little large in the photos. The open finger tips are perfect for me 'cause I want to be able to use the phone screen while driving and they make it easier to put on quickly and pull off more easily than full gloves. They don't get five stars since they are too new to know how they really...

Sasha: The gloves seems to be made of great quality but the size chart is off. I measured and ordered based on the chart but they are to big.

Martiñon: En general son buenos guantes los materiales son suaves y de una calidad aceptable no la mejor en comparación a otros de mayor precio, ademas de que carecen de la parte para quitártelos como otros guantes de este tipo tienen pero por el precio diría que están bien solo algunos detalles en los acabados de los dedos y me gustaría tener la opción de comprar los de color gris .

SL: I bought these to use on my 4000km hike on the Pacific Crest Trail. I hadn't heard of this brand or product before and took a risk on trying this. The risk paid off, these gloves are great for the price and I would buy again/recommend.

Likes:
- Fits medium to large sized hands well
- Easy to move, grab and extend fingers, doesn't tug
- Good sun coverage, I've worn these for many outdoor summer hikes and haven't burned my hands once

Dislikes:
- Not super high quality, but won't fall apart quickly, you get what you pay for for these
- this is my second pair, the first one has a ripped seam which I returned and was fully refunded

Joshua Courter: I wanted another pair of sungloves made by Outdoor Research. They have a higher price tag and were out of stock at the time. I settled for the Glacier Glove and I do not regret doing so. I bought these for a backpacking trip into the Ansel Adams Wilderness for a week. I do not like wearing sun screen and prefer to just "cover up" to protect myself from the sun. I tend to burn on my hands so I was in the market for a lightweight breathable pair of gloves.

As many have said they are light weight and breath well. I like have the extra leather on key contact points on the palm. It gives extra stability to the wear and tear most of my past gloves receive. Hiking with trekking poles around 13 miles a day, these things did start to warm up. However, once a little sweat was on them they were great on keeping my hands cool and dry. They survived a week on the trail too. I highly recommend them.

The only thing I saw as a potential negative, which it is not really the gloves fault no worth taking off a star, is DO NOT bring these things in contact with Velcro. I had my camera in my hiking pants with a Velcro cargo pocket. Reaching into my pocket the material would catch and...
