I wear a medium and Cressi's were too large and ScubaPro Tropic had seams between fingers that were hard and painful. Haven't tried them in water yet but really like fit and feel, and was cheapest of all three.

V. J. PriceV. J. Price: Bought these for snorkeling and scuba in the warmer Puerto Rican waters. We often pick up trash in the ocean, and sometimes fishing line or hooks are in the mix, so having the gloves is really handy. I am a small person and the smallest size fits perfect - so go with what the chart suggests. Also, always rinse your equipment after being in the water - adds much life to your gear!
2022 update: The gloves are still doing their job; the only negative at this point is the finger pads are wearing/shredding quickly. I take good care of them and they will still be functional for a while, but at some point I'll need to replace them when the shredding gets to the point where my fingers don't feel protected.
2023 update: Need new gloves. Or tape. Photo attached to show wear all the way down from the finger pads to the edge of the palm. I wish these lasted longer and the materials for the fingers/palms was better quality, because the fit and functionality of these is amazing. For over $40 I expect more use time out of them.

V. Soler Jr.V. Soler Jr.: Bought these mainly based on the positive reviews. I am looking to go diving in the Caribbean early Feb. 2019 and figured I'd try these out. I wear a size large and they fit quite well. They appear to be well constructed with good stitching and the wrist strap and the velcro are pretty solid. They are extremely comfortable. They are 1.5mm so they are thin (which is what I wanted and expected). I did receive the model w/ the black finger tips and black strap across the palm. I was hoping for the older model. Overall they appear to be a good buy for the price. Will do a follow-up once I get a chance to dive with them.

So had a chance to do a few dives in Dom. Rep. with these gloves and they were absolutely great. They were functional and worked great. They allow water to flow freely so there is no bubbling of the glove. My biggest concern was that they were going to look "worn" after a few use. But I rinsed them off and set them out to dry after every day and they still look brand new. I checked for any loose strings are frayed areas and there were none....

Bretholemule: I'' a hardcore spearfisherman and lobster catcher and I love these gloves! Lobster and fish gills tear up gloves pretty quickly, yet even after TWO YEARS mine were still giving me awesome protection! Just bought a second pair for the new season! The only thing to worry about with lobster is if you grab them from underneath they tend to try to dig their legs into the back of your handc and the gloves don't really protect you from that, but its not a big deal. When spearfishing you have to be carefull with other gloves because some of them limit how fast you can get your finger on the trigger, but not these! Another thing with other gloves is that they have a rubber coating for added grip, but leave them out in the sun and they melt, then you have black rubber all over your spear gun. Not these babys though! Leather diesn't melt, and it protects you from anything you get your hands into. I shove my hands in big grouper mouths all the time to rip them out of holes, and yes they do BITE DOWN, so I get some teeth marks in the back of my hand but thats not an issue. If you are tough enough to fightt sharks all the way back to the boat then you are tough enough to get some back-hand...

Billygoat: I normally wear a large in all sorts of gloves. These fit nearly too tight to manipulate my fingers. I plan to order the XL
