Synergy Neoprene Thermal Swim Gloves (Sports - Black, Large)

The resistance is nice.They are difficult to put on. I don't make my living with manual labor, and my slight hands support that. Even with skinny hands these are difficult to put on. Someone with bigger hands?--no way they could put them on, and I bought a large (I would say the actual finger length is closer to a medium).Water's are getting chillier now, and I noticed that there is a good bit of water exchange. I had hoped for a bit more warmth.I'd say, look elsewhere. I don't know where, but nothing to see here.

I love these gloves. When I first got them, I had a hard time putting them on until I looked at the instructions. Without reading the instructions it is a kind of IQ test to try putting them out without the risk of ruining them. I almost immediately felt tempted to order the next size up, as the gloves felt very tight. After my first swim, I am now contemplating ordering the next size smaller.I highly recommend these gloves because they help keep your hands warm when swimming in cold water. Some water does get into the glove which makes the temperature drop. I may simply need to order a size smaller.I also tried using these for biking but they did not work well at all. In fact, I got a blister on my right hand thumb. These gloves are clearly designed for swimming.

I thought turning the sleeves up to put the gloves on was a hassle, so I cut about 3/4 of them off. Made a big difference...much easier to put on. Otherwise excellent gloves.

I bought a pair of these gloves with finger webs to swim in an unheated pool during this winter. They take some effort to put on and take off, but that is not the main problem. My hands get cold right away. And the fabric starts to wear and form lint with loose threads within 2 weeks of light use. They are rinsed gently and hanged to dry. Bought a pair of cheaper 5 mm neoprene gloves from Amazon, much warmer and more durable.

I have small hands for a man and typically wear a small-sized glove but I could not even come close to fitting my hands into these medium-sized gloves because the wrist was so narrow.

bought mine based on size chart for my hand and it came, couldnt even fit my hand into the opening in my glove. sent it back

I have been using these in 56-57 degree ocean water. They work great! The 2.5mm thickness allow me to keep my fingers together to grab the water. I have used 5mm gloves (different brand) and I could not hold my fingers together as easily.

These work very well and stay up. I do short distances of cold water swims and my hands just can’t handle the cold like the rest of me can. I can attest that they keep your hands warm in freezing cold water.
