Harken Sport Men's Spectrum 3/4 Finger Gloves

GREAT water gloves.I bought these for a week-long trip down the Middle Fork of the Salmon River. They were exactly as expected: good fit, no blisters even when on the oars all day, great performance when wet.Stitching was excellent - very high quality leather and fabrics. I had zero stitch breaks. The gloves dried well overnight. I highly recommend them for any water sports.I have large hands, and ordered extra large based on the sizing recommendations. They fit perfectly.These gloves would also work well at the gym.

The fit was snug, the way I was hoping. It is a big hard to get on and off, but that is the fit I wanted for pulling lines. Medium fit me well. In term of surgical gloves, I am a 7.5, if that is useful for anyone. The gloves were wet, actually soaked in the middle of a storm, and the material simply dried and felt the same as out of the box. This definitely saved me from some rope burns during my first foray into sailing. The grip on lines was good and appropriate.

I cannot give a full review since I have not had a chance to put these gloves into use on the water and won't until spring arrives, but at first glance I'm pleased with them. They seem to have quality construction and would provide well-protected gripping surfaces, while the mesh back should keep them from getting too warm. I do find them snugger than expected and the pink finger especially is oddly tight. I got them in medium as I do not have large hands. I would caution about the sizing and error toward a larger size. The tab at the wrist opening for tugging them on is useful, but likewise pulling them off is not as easy. Again making sure they are not too small will help there.

these gloves have performed really well - they are quite comfortable, good in water, and handle dirt / grease / mud decently. would totally buy again

Nice gloves except I'm not a fan of the fastener which is a bit hard to unfasten.

They fit, they are a little tight at the end of the fingers, perhaps they are supposed to work that way. Felt comfortable on the dry obstacle course. Still need to try them out on a wet course with ropes.

I actually got a refund, because only 1 glove came so you cant blame Harken for that. BUT the ONE glove looks good quality.

The gloves were so bad that I returned them after one use. They look good but are very poorly made.......very tight on little finger but baggy in palm area. Using them hindered my paddling.
