Cressi High Stretch Gloves 5mm

— Show original

The only gloves I can use as someone with a latex allergy. That doesn't mean the material would suit everyone allergic to natural rubber. Fortunately, there are Cressis—I don't know what I'd do without them; I'd probably be swimming in Devold wool mittens in the winter.

Surprisingly tight! If your glove size is 10, the equivalent size here is XL; a size L won't fit because they are far too tight. The gloves are really warm, although the wrist section could be a bit longer. There is a bit too much water exchange inside the glove if the wrist section cannot be tucked under the suit's wrist seal. If you can tuck it in, that solves the problem. However, I recommend them for use in very cold water or if your fingers tend to get cold easily.

They work well for ice diving. The wrist could be a little longer, but they work just fine.

I didn't expect them to be this thick, but they make the open water swimming experience much more enjoyable. They take quite a while to dry.

A bit thick in the hand, but definitely good in the open.

Really warm gloves for open swimming. Fingers won't freeze at least in +3 degree water. Not yet tested in 0 degree water.

Frustratingly slippery, there should be a grip when handling the ropes
