Kayakers - Better than any NRS gloves I've tried

I use these for kayaking in the winter (not a poga fan). I had them for a moderate rowing winter (November-March). When temperatures hit puberty and all your gear is covered in ice, these gloves will keep you warm. They are so easy and inexpensive. These are dry gloves so they are a little different from the neoprene gloves you might be used to. They have a fleece lining inside which looks great. Sometimes a little water oozes out when you immerse yourself in water, but that water heats up quickly and you won't realize it's there. I did notice that there is a tiny hole where the thumb meets the hand, which I think is to be expected as this is where the paddle is most affected. The gloves are not bulky at all and the grip is fantastic. Better than any NRS gloves I've tried and a lot cheaper. The fingers are slightly curved for more comfort. Try these gloves, they are amazing and cheap enough that if you have to buy them once a year it is worth it.

Pros
  • Arm and hand protection
Cons
  • Pretty ok
