Great set of gloves.

Great pair of gloves and they kept my hands warm in 49 degree water. I dive with another diver who uses these. And they had them in my size as I have huge hands.

Great glove but wrist doesn't play well against dry suit seals

Great glove. I bought these after I found the 3 finger claw 7mm version too bulky and didn't like not being able to use my hands for things like operating reels etc. No problem on that front with these, and warm too! Many of my buddies use these too. The only negative is the wrist is a bit too long when you're wearing them with a dry suit with latex wrist seals as the glove pushes into the seal.

Best gloves!

Best gloves hands down. Warm and a good dexterity considering their 5mm. Integrates well with wetsuit wrist seals.

Best cold hand protection yet.

High quality construction. Gloves are superb at keeping my fingers/hands warm in cold water. I get more bottom time just because of these.

Great gloves

Fit great over my DUI drysuit seals and kept my hands fairly warm in 38F water.

Best gloves

Waterproof gloves are the best gloves. The side wall makes all the difference, and they barely, barely let any water in.

Best cold water wet gloves I've ever worn

Best gloves ever, unless you go dryglove. Comfortable, good grip, easily put on (even when wet). I've owned 4 pairs. two 5mm and two 3mm.

cold water gloves

These gloves did well in water temps around 65 degrees, although I could barely manipulate a turn knob on my camera and using the inflater became even a bigger challenge.

missing zipper tab

My boots have a little Velcro flap that you fold over the zipper once the boot is fully zipped. This stops the zipper from coming undone as would otherwise happen and does happen on other boots. This same feature should exist on high end gloves as it would only add pennies to the cost but would stop the glove from unzipping during your dive which of course this glove does. Other than that it is a great glove, but because this detail is so obvious to include and because having ones glove unzip is so frustrating I think it fair to subtract two stars from the rating. I will probably add a Velcro tab myself. This should not be an issue on an expensive glove.

Warm in the cold

These gloves kept my hands warm in Sechelt Inlet while there was glacial runoff at the surface around 38 degrees, while diving they did a great job with dexterity similar to other cold water gloves. Putting these on compared to my old AquaLung 5mm gloves is like night and day. The inner liner just feels warmer at first contact even on the 2nd dive when they're wet. They are semi-dry so they do fit a bit tight. The only issue I've had is being able to zip the right hand side over my drysuit sleeve. But, that's what a dive buddy's for. Great gloves, highly recommended.

Best gloves I’ve owned.

I have small hands and short fingers, these are the only gloves I’ve found that actually fit well. I dive strictly cold water and use the 3 mm gloves. My hands don’t get cold. Freaks people out. Lol

Awsome gloves.

These are the best gloves you can get easy, and easy off. I swear by all my waterproof gear, from dry to wet and what ever else that I have.

Best wet gloves ever

By far the best glove I've ever used (for cold water). I've been using these for almost two years. Great dexterity for 5mm. My hands and fingers stay warm even at 31 degree water. The best part is that the zipper makes then easy to put on and take off. And they easily fold up when wearing a drysuit as neoprene gloves don't cover the wrist like in a wetsuit.

Waterproof G1 5-Finger 5 mm Gloves

Love these gloves enough that I have bought several pairs. Worn them for lots of dives each in rough conditions until they wear out. Keep buying them for comfort and design.

there are cheaper better gloves available

Do Not get me wrong these gloves work pretty well. First they keep my hands warm in 52 degree water for 60 to 90 minutes of diving. I like the formed fit. They look like they will hold up but out here Oregon so far no gloves hold up for much more than a year. The zipper makes it easy to get on and off but has yet to stay up during a dive. Does not seem to matter that much because the fit is good and hands stay warm anyway.

Warm gloves

Bought these gloves cause while deep diving off coast of California. After about 30 mins. My hands would start to go numb wearing 3mm gloves Now With these I'm not having any problem at all even after an hour. They are a little less flexible and are harder to put and zip up but overall a great product. Looks like it's built tuff.

Great glove

This is a very well made glove and warm, although I gave it a 4 star only because of the zipper impeeding my drysuit wrist seals...but you just need to fit them around the seal. Thry are probably best with a wetsuit with no zipper on the lower arms. Note that they tend to run on the large size so I had to buy one size down, thanks to LPs great exchange policy.

Not recommended

I am a fan of waterproof products having two of their wetsuits and a drysuit but these gloves do not cut it. They are well made and fit nicely but the zipper is I) extremely difficult to close once the glove is over your wetsuit and II) opens by itself. While I could live with the difficulty in closing the zipper that it opens by itself renders them useless. Too bad.

Greatest Gloves Ever

These are by far the best gloves I've used. Initially, I bought them because I was tired of fighting with putting on and taking off gloves. The zipper makes them extremely easy to put on and take off whether wet or dry. They are very warm and surprisingly mobile for 5mm. I dive in waters at low to mid 40s and hand warmth is not a problem. When zipped fully, I haven't had the zipper open either, but I try to wear my wet suit over the zipper as much as possible to avoid any kind of problem.

Great product. Good quality construction

I used the size template I printed out from leisurepro.com The gloves fit the length of my fingers perfectly. The gloves do not fit super tight around my fingers. This might cause more water flow but they are easier to don and doff than my old gloves that fit very tight. I was in the water with them for the first time a couple of weeks ago and it was 50 degrees and my hands were toasty warm.

Best gloves on the market.

These gloves are the best I've ever owned. Solid construction, great fit, and WARM. You can't beat Waterproof exposure suits. The gloves are the same quality and value as the entire line of equipment. I have 35 years expierence in recreational diving. You can't go wrong with these gloves. For a little warmer temps, consider the 3mm.

excellent gloves

Between the smooth liner and the zipper, these gloves could not be easier to get off and on. I have not had such comfortable gloves ever, and I have been diving since 1982.

Zipper can be tough at first.

The body reacts to cold by adjusting the blood flow to the extremities, like hands, fingers and feet. White Fingers is a common condition in extreme cold or a result from prolonged exposure and decreased blood flow. If you add restriction and squeeze into the equation these conditions can worsen Waterproof's G1 Glove series is constructed with all this in mind. Better fit and flexibility, enhanced warmth, less restriction and squeeze

The G1 5-Finger 5mm Gloves have an ergonomically designed 3-D shape with pre-bent fingers for a more natural fit. The glide-skin seal, extra-long durable and quality YKK zipper with pull tab mean easy donning and doffing. Built to last the gloves seams are glued and sewn with bonded high-quality nylon thread and the I-Span super stretch nylon will give you many seasons of warm hand diving. The G1 5-Finger 5mm Gloves have a polyurethane embossing that provides a non-slip grip and abrasion protection, reflective logo and an ID-plate so you know these gloves are yours. Gloves are available in multiple sizes and are black in color.
