Comments about Blue Reef Blue Reef 5mm Mens Glove with Velcro Band:

I got these gloves in a package, I got about 45 dives out of one pair. Now the gloves are pulling apart at the seams. These gloves are sewn together at the seams rather than glued, so once the string comes apart the gloves will quickly degrade.

Clumsy, poor fit...look elsewhere

Comments about Blue Reef Blue Reef 5mm Mens Glove with Velcro Band:

I got these free as part of a "package" from Leisure Pro. The gloves fit too loosely around your hands. A smaller glove would be to short for my fingers. The 2-piece Velcro bands are kind of clumsy to fasten. While comfortable to wear, because these are 5mm gloves, the combination of the "bagginess" of the fit and the thickness of the neoprene remove all evidence of dexterity.

I use various Tusa and Pinnacle gloves. I used these gloves as a Christmas party swap at our local dive shop.

Comments about Blue Reef Blue Reef 5mm Mens Glove with Velcro Band:

Pretty sweet pair of gloves. They have an amazing Velcro strap.... its hard to explain but it is a double locking if you will; which is awesome because it is soo secure. However you butcher the gloves when you try and take them off; you keep snagging the fingers when you undoing the Velcro. The gloves get a lil' chilly after a while at 52F; but over all im pleased.

Comments about Blue Reef Blue Reef 5mm Mens Glove with Velcro Band:

Good fit, really warm, good movement. Not so durable. The gloves hold up fine along the stitching and seams, but tend to be weaker at the finger tips where a diver will come in contact with rocks and such. I would recommend a kevlar pair, but these are good for anyone just looking to keep their hands warm.

Comments about Blue Reef Blue Reef 5mm Mens Glove with Velcro Band:

I purchased these for my son and they kept his hands comfortable in 51 degree water. I used them in zero vis. and had great dexterity for rigging up an upline, lift bag and snaps. Held up well against the rigors of descending and hanging on an anchor line.

Comments about Blue Reef Blue Reef 5mm Mens Glove with Velcro Band:

I dive 1-2+ times a month for the law enforcement agency I work for. I live in Michigan so I do a lot of cold water dives. Only used these a few times so far but they fit great and keep my hands warm. Can't beat the price and will get another pair when my current ones wear out.

Comments about Blue Reef Blue Reef 5mm Mens Glove with Velcro Band:

I work for a coastal research center in New Jersey. These gloves are used 2-3 days a week in very cold water all over the coast. The grip is great for holding equipment in the water, the gloves are extremely warm, a fit snug to my hands. The tips of the fingers fray when I try to un-velcro the gloves, but that can be avoided by using your teeth instead. Overall, they are great gloves.
