Comments about Blue Reef 5mm Duratex Glove with Velcro Strap Wrist Closure:

Excellent value for the price, the gloves fit well and are reinforced in the right places. I only buy kevlar palm/finger type gloves because we are constantly working with rocks and other materials that tear a normal glove up within a season. I also use these gloves during lobster season and even as a backup pair of spearfishing gloves (5mm is really too thick for a dedicated spearfishing glove). Keeps my hands warm in deep water and I'm hoping they don't fall apart over time but we'll see.

do a lot of diving working with hands in 45 degree water. I go through a pair of gloves in less than a month. Finally got wise and ordered these. Inexpensive and very durable after 8 dives in an abrasive environment.

Comments about Blue Reef 5mm Duratex Glove with Velcro Strap Wrist Closure:

I only use Kevlar gloves because they are great for the type of diving I do. These gloves work fine but the durability and quality is poor. Gloves typically last two seasons for me. These gloves have only lasted one season. I prefer Deep See but Leiser pro no longer sells them.

I also do not like the way the strap on these gloves work. The way the strap wraps does not work well and part of the strap ends up sticking out. I prefer the 'wrap around' style strap.

I usually wear a size large but it felt too tight so I reordered a size extra -large. This was better but still a little snug. I've done 4 wreck dives with them so far and there's no sign of wear. I do alot of digging & scrounging in wrecks that normally ruin a pair of new gloves quickly.

Gloves are quite thick, but the finger design stop and the second knuckle of the finger... I guess that's okay to retain warmth, but reminds me of the poor fitting gloves I was issued in the Army.
