So...gloves or no gloves??

I like, and a good few customers have commented the Pfanner stretch flex are good. They're quiet thin so you still get a good feel for your gear. Despite them being thin they last quiet well, at 3 quid a pair they wont break the bank neither.

I'm using dewalt fingerless I have contact dermatitis (wood,oil,possibly latex) these last are comfy and not to expensive at 17 quid as for not wearing gloves I didn't for years but after seeing you hands deteriorate you learn to protect yourself, you just need to find the gloves that suit you

These are excellent climbing gloves in the dry or wet.

I hardly vet wear gloves though but these are the best I've found.

My mate gave me a pair of the planner ones. I lasted 5 minutes in them and went back to Eko grip specials!

I use Gill Pro fingerless Sailing gloves, they are absolutely brilliant for grip in the wet or dry.

 

 

I tried these on a recommendation on here and I couldn't get on with them. They were tight which made it hard to clench your fist hence making it quite hard to grip the rope and they were really hard to take off. Also I kept nipping myself with the silky, suppose I wasn't used to fingerless gloves. Ah and the palm wore out quite quickly ( not the leather bit but the neoprene right next to the leather seeing as I presume these gloves are meant for rope work, being sailing gloves. I did try and make them work for me but they just didn't work and at the price point they were at. .... they're just not worth it.
