🧗 Metolius 3/4 Climbing Gloves Review

I ordered the X Large and my hands are not THAT big. Tries to wet and stretch them. They even put ice in it and froze it. Still a little too small. I mainly use them for kiting with .Nylon/Dacron line. They'll cut through nylon gloves and fingers if they pass you, but not with these gloves. On my fourth pair. I am strict with them and use them often!

Decently constructed gloves Might have been made by mixing eco-friendly elastic fiber L - all 3 didn't fit. A large pair of these gloves provided really good grip on the descents and if they fit properly they would be the only pair I have ever needed.

These open finger gloves are great for bouldering/canyoning when you want a nice thick palm but open fingers for gripping and photography. Reinforced palm skin is quite tough and thick. If you choose the right angle, it is also great for descending - thick skin tolerates it without any problems. You'll still tap your fingers a bit, but I prefer the dexterity of loose fingers. (Not suitable for short descents without a belay - use gloves with full fingers for that. - I don't like it for that).

I've been looking for a suitable replacement for the fingerless leather gloves I used to have for a number of years. Those Metolius Gloves are just like mine!
