I am very happy about the dexteraty they offer
I live in Washington state, the water temperature is 47 degrees. I've currently logged 18 hours worth of dive time wearing these gloves. I am very happy about the dexteraty they offer. The gauntlet of the gloves is rather tight, but I consider that a good thing. I normally put a couple rubber bands around the wrists of my gloves to keep water from entering and exiting. These gloves eliminate the need for them and seal the sleeves of a wetsuit extremely well. The longevetity of them already seems worth the 15$ price. I'll get back to you on how many hours I dive before they begin to rip. Overall, I am very happy with them and intend on purchasing another pair in the near future.

Warm, flexible enough for swimming, fit slightly large for very small hands
I was looking for a pair of gloves for open water swimming in the Puget Sound. I had tried many on at a diving store but most were not flexible enough. I took a chance on these.They are snug around the fingers which is what you need. They have a grippy plan. Wrist area has a velcro strap which seals out the water. They are 3mm with a 5mm palm. The pink color was very cute and matches my cap.These performed well. They are reasonably flexible. They did not interfere with my crawl stroke. They kept my hands warm in the cold water. They were easy to tighten around my wrists. I ordered a size Sm. They will work for me.The only 2 criticisms are: I have small hands and the fingers were about a 1/4" too long and the wrist straps were too loose for my wrists. I had to pull the velcro tight and stick the bottom edge of the top strap to the bottom edge of the lower strap. That is why I gave it a 4 star instead of a 5 star rating.

These are not water tight at all !
I work in the midwest for a pool company, with closing these pools the water is real cold, I was looking for a glove that did not allow the water , especially ice cold water, these gloves leak like a sieve, I tried them for 2 weeks and I'm better off putting plastic bags on my hands to keep them dry ! Would NOT buy again

Pass
Good if you don't mind your hands being wet and cold. I could see using these while snorkeling in warm waters with hands the size of a toddler. Buy big, swim warm waters or pass...

5mm may be stiffer than you think
These seem like really well-made gloves, which I bought to keep in my car for when I need to go out and remove lots of ice and snow. However, one caution. I find that the 5mm thickness gloves are pretty darn stiff, making it hard to perform fine, or even slightly finicky, work (like using screwdrivers or wrenches). Need to dig your car out from under a ton of snow? These babies will do the trick of keeping your hands from freezing. Need to tighten the bolts on your trailer hitch when it's 10 degrees outside? Maybe consider the 3mm instead. But, like I say, the construction of these gloves seems solid, whichever size you choose.

Will update after further testing- see note
Updated: the MFG ensures me that these should have sufficient grip for WW kayaking. That I most likely ordered too small of a size. I will try a larger size, since they are so willing to make me happy and will update.Original: I used these yesterday in class III rapids and had a very hard time holding on to my paddle. I think these are great and appropriate for many things. I do a lot of other sports and will keep them, but just be cautious of using these in white water. Wax would help but I still probably won't try them again for this purpose.

Great for small tasks in near freezing water.
Cleaning ponds for our ducks hear in the Great Pacific Northwest can be challenging in Winter. These gloves have made reaching into the freezing, poo-saturated duck ponds is almost a joy! Speeds up my task in cold weather-always a plus.

Comfortable - Warm
I needed a waterproof glove that could stand up the elements and impact in the odd conditions I needed them for. We have a very active dog that loves to be outside in the snow and rain playing "keep away" and "chase" with a heavy plastic ball. Without gloves, the impact stings the hand and gloves are necessary in the snow and rain just for the cold. These are perfect and are holding up to the wear. Looking forward to using them in the pool when the season starts again. I received one pair of these gloves for a gift and immediately purchased a second pair as backup just because I was impressed with the quality. The sizing chart is accurate.

They fit snug
I love that these gloves do not let the water get in during kayaking. They are durable, and I use them to move and transport the kayak as well and they hold up. They keep my hands warm even in January Canadian waters, and they stay dry! They do, however, fit very snugly. I would probably get a half size up next time because I do have to wrestle myself in and out of them. Prompt delivery, packaged well.

Great gloves for the price.
I am using the 5mm gloves, with a wetsuit, to winter paddleboard in Lake Ontario. Gloves are quite warm, even when fully wet. They are tight for their sizing. The grip could be a little better for my paddle. Overall, still a great glove for the price.

The little sticky hexagon shaped dots on the palm area wear off quickly.
Just after a couple of uses, some of the dots peeled off, especially around the hot spots. The glove itself feels solid despite my in-between hand size (between small and medium). I would give it a 5 start if the dots were more durable.

Amazon processing time took to long and unacceptable
Amazons package processing is absolutely poor and took forever for them to ship out the item. I should have bought these from another store and the would have come sooner. The glove work and fit well!!
