Review on 🧀 Youngstown Glove 08-8450-80S Military Work Gloves by Jimmy Scaturro

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Improved - except for this year's products. Show comments.

I always find it difficult to find the right gloves. They fit better than almost anything I've ever owned, comparable to flight gloves or even better. They are warm, wind and waterproof, at least for short-term diving. They are also non-slip: you have a secure grip on almost everything, even when it is wet. I like them so much that I will buy two more pairs. I wish Youngstown would make them really small for women. My wife has tiny hands and she could really use a pair of these! UPDATE 12/24/15: NOTICE. This ONLY applies to this specific type of glove. Does not apply to other types of Youngstown gloves.) I returned the last two pairs, original and replacement. The fit of the last two was terrible. I contacted Youngstown direct and they sent me a third pair which still didn't fit. Speaking to them about this issue, I learned that this batch was made at a different plant in Vietnam. This may explain the deterioration in quality control. I was also told that they are moving production back to the original factory so next year production can return to the great fit and quality I used to experience. If so, I will increase my rating of the product again. In addition, their customer service is top notch.
