Tropical-water hand protection at the price of admission. 1.5mm of neoprene — enough to take the rash out of long-line handling, keep the wind chill off a wet hand on the surface, and give the palm the grip it needs without the bulk of a thicker glove.
The cheapest pair you'll buy this year, and probably one of the most-used.
Aloha Eduardo, stoked to hear the 1.5mm is working great for you. Thanks for the support.

Aloha Nicholas, stoked to hear the Essentials are working out for you. That 1.5mm hits the sweet spot for most conditions — versatile without being too thick. Thanks for the five-star review.

These are really nice well made gloves. Even though they are relatively thin, I've been using them with a 5/4 wetsuit in 48F water with colder air temps and my hands have been toasty. They allow for good dexterity. The only thing I would change is a little more grippy palms, but that can be fixed easily with a little surfwax.

Aloha Mark, stoked to hear the 1.5mm is working so well in that cold water—that's solid performance for a thinner glove. Your surfwax hack for the palms is spot on; plenty of people do exactly that. Thanks for the detailed review.

These gloves fit great and are super comfortable. They will work well on the days it’s not quite warm enough to go gloveless but I want extra dexterity I don’t have in the 3mm. I Can easily grab small things and have good feeling sensation through the neoprene. I also plan to take them on a warm water dive trip just in case.
This is my 3rd pair of their gloves and all thicknesses are fantastic.

5.5 mm Gloves & Standard Gloves
The 5.5m gloves worked perfectly in 55 degree water. My hands were never cold. Plus, the gloves were flexible enough for me to effectively spear fish and handle gear in the water.
The standard dive gloves are well made. I've had them for quite some time and they have not lost elasticity. Most degrade within a few months. These have not. Plus they are reinforced in areas where necessary.
I highly recommend both.

If you get cold get gloves bruddah.
Not cut proof so if you need that get cloth kine. You want these to dive mainland side where it gets cold. These got the fit and the the grip when you need to keep the heat in 🤙
