Our design team has developed these gloves especially for surfing and bodyboarding in winter, in waters between 12°C and 17°C.
Stay warm for longer thanks to our thermal accessories! Each temperature range has its own outfit...
When we are in the water, we lose more than half of our body heat through our extremities (feet, hands, head).Consequently, here are the recommended accessories:- In water (>17°C) => Low neoprene shoes.- In water (12 - 17°C): High booties (boots) and gloves.- In water (7–12°C): High booties (boots), gloves, hood and hooded top.
Choose the right size
Surfing gloves should be a very tight fit to ensure optimal thermal efficiency. It is perfectly normal for it to feel like they are too tight when tried on dry. Choosing well-fitting gloves prevents them swelling with water in use.
Materials
3 mm surf gloves are made from 100% neoprene for guaranteed improved comfort during use.The neoprene is lined with synthetic fabric for increased resistance to wear.Neoprene thickness: 3 mm.The neoprene is made from an elastomer foam with insulating properties.We test and guarantee the quality of our neoprene materials.
Watertight assembly
The seams are stitched and glued to guarantee waterproofing and resistance""One-eyed"" stitching: the thread does not go all the way through the neoprene, preventing water from getting through.The absence of threads on the inside avoids irritation and chafing.An external seal on the seams further reinforces durability and waterproofing.
