DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Enhanced Warmth and Insulation
The graphene-infused lining combines a lightweight feel with serious thermal performance, warming your hands up quickly and keeping them warm. For long sessions in cold water, this tech delivers real comfort without adding bulk.
Materials and Durability
The smooth neoprene and nylon exterior provides excellent abrasion resistance and reduces drag in the water. Premium Smart Foam, made partly from upcycled tires and neoprene scraps, strikes a perfect balance between warmth and lightness while reducing its environmental footprint.
Watertight and Flexible
GBS (glued and blind-stitched) seams minimize water entry while maintaining the flexibility needed for paddling. The result is a pair of gloves that protect you from the cold without restricting finger movement.
Fit and Grip
The lining incorporates stretch silicone to improve the fit and keep the gloves securely in place, while the five-finger design preserves a natural grip. This lets you maintain great board feel and a solid hold on your paddle.
