Unreliable Gloves for Climbing Adventure

As a passionate climber, I purchased these gloves hoping to enhance my climbing experience. Unfortunately, these gloves failed to meet my expectations. The one good thing is that the gloves fit snugly on my hands. But, the rubber padding fails to provide a firm grip making my hands slip off the ropes. As a result of my tests, I determined that these gloves aren't reliable during climbing activities. In conclusion, I wouldn't recommend these gloves to anyone looking to take their climbing game…

Pros
  • Snug fit
Cons
  • Rubber padding doesn't give a firm grip.

When used as intended, the size runs smaller imo

Bought these for my wife, her palm is 7.5 but I ignored the size chart and chose a very small one. Small would wear out to be too big rather than worn down to fit perfectly. As gardening/landscape gloves, it's probably best to stick to the size chart. I am satisfied with the purchase, it seems to resist, time will tell.

Pros
  • price
Cons
  • repair

Beware of counterfeit Metolius gloves. See photos

Counterfeit Metolius protective gloves. See attached photos. For the last 10 years I've been wearing Metolius belay gloves and Petzl Cordex for light to medium work. My job involves manipulating ropes under load and climbing various structures for up to 12 hours on a daily basis. I have found the above gloves to be the best in terms of durability and dexterity. The Metolius are my favorite gloves, although they do get a bit hot in the summer. They smell like formaldehyde mixed with plastic gas.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Slightly torn
