ive just bought a pair of sealskinz, you can feel they are damp, but your hands dont get wet or sweaty. Great grip too.

WCW are doing kevlar sealskinz which look great

I just picked some fingerless gloves with rubber grips on the palm from the pound shop! Bargain! Teaming that up with some black rubber gloves with cotton glove liners from Wilkos for £1.49 for when it gets a bit nippy.  8)

Used neoprene gloves last year but found it more hassle than they were worth having to take them off everytime I needed change for a custy!  >:(

Neoprene gloves are good value but you sweat after a little while and it becomes unconfortable, if you can afford, the very best are the sealskinz gloves, and they are the only one that are really water proof.

the Ultra Tough model with kevlar is more resistant than the Ultra grip, if you do a lot of pole work

Hi Craig
the contico are nice as well, they use to be my favorites before I used the Sealskinz, because they are not proper waterproof
