DETAILED DESCRIPTION
What you'll feel
You'll feel the difference from the first minute in the water: the full Graphene Recycler lining locks in heat longer, and the Smart Foam minimises that initial cold water shock. The perforated Airlite Recycler jersey has plenty of stretch, so you keep the sensitivity you need for fine-tuning your position and grabbing your leash. The 3-finger cut strikes a balance between warmth and mobility, which is crucial when a set rolls in and you need to grab your board fast.
Choosing the Right Size
The cut is designed to hug your hand without excess bulk to maintain sensitivity. We recommend measuring your palm and checking it against the Billabong size guide. If you're between sizes, go for the tighter fit to prevent flushing. The listed sizes range from XS to XL, covering most adult hand sizes. If you're unsure, we can help you find the perfect fit in our shop.
Construction and materials
These gloves are built with technical materials: perforated Airlite Recycler jersey for flexibility, Smart Foam made from upcycled car tires and neoprene scraps for lightweight insulation, and a Graphene Recycler lining with 100% recycled fibres infused with graphene to lock in heat. The internal seams are sealed with Superflex tape for a leak-proof finish and better durability. The Dry-Max membrane limits water entry during repeated duck dives and wipeouts.
On-water performance
On the water, the combination of materials fights off that numb-finger feeling during long waits between sets. The snug fit limits flushing and the Dry-Max membrane keeps the inside drier, so you stay comfortable for your whole session. The Superflex taping on the seams maintains the seal even after heavy use, while preserving the flex you need for paddling and getting through the break.
Who is it for?
This model is for any surfer who spends time in cold water and wants to prioritise warmth without losing dexterity. If you Surf through the winter or just have long sessions in low temperatures, the 5mm construction and Graphene Recycler lining make all the difference. We recommend these gloves to surfers looking for a great balance between insulation and feel.
Buying advice
Before you buy, measure your palm and try the gloves on if possible: a loose glove lets water in and won't keep you warm. If you're between two sizes, go for the snugger fit to minimise flushing. Look after your neoprene by rinsing it with fresh water and drying it in the shade to preserve the Dry-Max membrane and Graphene Recycler lining. We can also give you expert advice in our Pornichet shop.
