Are these gloves good for sailing a hobie cat?

These gloves are waterproof and are made of tough material that I've lifted weights in them and they are still like new. Also, the durability is great and I recommend these for any water sport where you need a comfortable grip.

I would say yes. These gloves are lined, and do an excellent job of keeping water out. I've tried other manufacturers, but none have been effective as Glacier Glove. Even after a good day of fishing in rough surf conditions, my hands are kept dry by these gloves. Water could leak in through the cuff if you completely submerged them, but otherwise these gloves do an excellent job of keeping water out.

I ordered mine for riding my motorcycle, and I'm going to say they do run true to size. I have thick fingers, so I wanted to make sure they weren't pinched. The finger may end up a little longer, but that's the way it goes. I would agree with LeRox's answer, regarding going one size down if you need to be able to pick up parts without taking the gloves off. Just decide what you're going to use them for the most & go by that.

After use the fur will usually become "matted" into the glove. I am able to peel it off starting at one end. The fuller the surface becomes the easier it is to peel off the fur. I always use long slower motions with the glove and find it does a great job removing loose hair and I would think undercoat. My cat seems to enjoy it since this glove allows more of a 'petting' feel rather than a combing and/or brushing would.

I use them for a toasty swim in 62 degree water very thick. I would guess yes re lobster catching ie enough padding

I would think so. I bought them to wear so my hands wouldn't come in direct contact w/rubber or plastics. The gloves are thin enough that you can easily move your fingers but heavy enough to protect transfer of allergens.

My cat isn't that big, but he is over 12 pounds and it doesn't budge in the least bit. The manufacturer says they use them for their 20 pound cat, so I think you would be fine. The straps have a rubbery back side to them so they grip really well.

Absolutely. These are the most durable and comfortable Kevlar gloves I've ever owned. However u wouldn't recommend them.for bike riding. If you choose to it will work however I would recommend a glove that would breathe such as weight lifting gloves that are fingerless, ventilated, and padded better for bike riding.

I think they must run a little small. I bought a small for my 6-1/2 pound cat and needed to return. Ended up with a medium.

They will help, but are maybe not thick enough for serious thermal protection. Excellent, though, for keeping road-salt and ice from paws. 3rd winter, 2nd pair.

Yes. These gloves would be good for a heavy bag workout. Not particularly heavy gloves, but you should be able to wail on that bag as fast and hard as you want.

They come with very cheap plastic gloves. Probably adequate for a couple uses. I just kept my leather driving gloves on, no problem.

They should work just fine, they are water proof as advertised. They are also made for tough work, the fingers have leather protecting from ware n tear and outer is a stretch material for easy movement. They are suppose to keep hands warm unfortunately like all gloves fingers will get cold!!

yes, I think so, but the glove is designed to use in deep water, I use them to take care of my water lily

They should prove to be OK with those items, so long as they are not too small in size. The fingertips have a better feel than most gloves with this quality of warmth do. The index fingers on the gloves have a small patch of leather-ish fabric that may or may not serve a purpose, depending on use. I have used them in EMS (ambulance patient care) and have had no problems with tearing surgical tape, attaching straps and patient securing gear, and operated other medical devices with them on. Obviously, they are going to pose a barrier problem of some sorts, but overall, I think they are better than most (of similar quality) in fingertip feel and comfort. Hope that helps!

Yes, I bought these gloves for my husband last year because he rides a motorcycle. I can't even think how many times he has told me he loves those gloves. So, yes I recommend them.

That is the exact reason these covers were purchased. The cat burned his paws.ER visit was $$. I put these on as soon as I am done cooking. They are "Purrfect" for the cat. I would highly recommend this product.
