I bought these gloves to wear while I'm hiking in the Arizona desert. It's very dry here and the sun is quite direct. These gloves are perfect for the job. I like that they are light and airy and my hands don't get sweaty inside of them.

These are great for hiking. Good texture on palm for gripping and 3/4 length fingers allow usage of camera/iPhone!

Got these for me - perfect size. They are fabulous. I love the print. My wife wanted one too, but her size was not available. Hopefully we'll get one in her size next year!

I use these conducting fieldwork in Central Oregon sun and heat. I wear long sleeves, pants, and now have coverage for my hands. I even use them on my drives when sun beats down on the steering wheel. Looking forward to using them more while kayaking. They are lightweight and while they don't cover your lower fingers/fingertips much, they do offer decent coverage. So far they have cleaned up well, though some dirt/brown may persist.

Just got these for driving and mountain bike riding. The fabric is thin but it appears to be durable and also does not get your hands hot. I very much appreciate the tiny grip modules on the palm and fingers of these gloves - prevents slipping!

Just got these a couple weeks ago and I love them! I use them for fieldwork in coastal areas, and its SO great not needing to slather sunscreen all over my hands. The little grippies are small but do enough so that you don't lose grip doing normal things, although I wouldn't rely on them to do any heavy gripping. The print is so pretty and fun, and the lightweightness of them makes them really breathable. I feel a little nerdy but i don't care because I love them so much!

Hiking in the AZ sun can be rough and harsh. These gloves help keep the tops of my hands from burning and keep me cooler than I expected they would.

Protection from sun while rowing and fishing. Works great, fits well, sizing is good. I wear a size 9 glove, and the large fit well.

I wear these gloves almost everyday. They are lightweight and breathable. Often I forget that I'm wearing them. The patterned fabric helps to hide dirt/sap stains and sparks joy. So far I've experienced no chafing at all (xc skiing, biking, hiking, & writing in them). They fit true to the size chart.

Use them for fly fishing, super comfortable and let you feel the line. I usually wear women's small gloves, and the S unisex actually fits really well. Wonderland print is super nice and actually kind of neutral.

I need to remember to put sunblock on my hands when running but besides forgetting it also eventually sweats off. This is a great solution. Also the cooling effect of the fabric keeps my hands comfortable while not getting sunburnt.

Glad OR carries these items for those trying to protect ourselves from sun damage. They will be perfect for kayaking and easy to take when travelling.

These fit great and work fine with my binoculars. Stoked to have these as the one part of my body I worry about sun exposure is my hands.

A great product for protecting your hands from over exposure/too much sun.
I've used them on the water while paddling but also while fast packing, hiking, and trail running.
Definitely not bug proof but they do slow down biting bugs.

I hiked a mountain in the early summer and felt the sun burning the back of my hands. I bought these to keep the sun off me. I really like that they extend up past the wrist so that a lightweight long sleeve shirt easily fits over them without concern of a gap showing through.

The gloves worked perfectly for a long trip in the alpine, 11 hours in the blazing sun which also reflected off the snow. They are light and breathable, and the light color was perfect for the warm day. I also liked the rubber dots on the palm, adding some extra grip on my ice ax. The sizing also worked perfectly, following the guidelines about measuring my hand.

Keeps the sun off your hands and looks pretty good doing it. These are a very fine, light fabric and do not provide a lot of abrasion resistance, so they won't prevent blisters from trekking or fishing poles. Otherwise, does what it says on the tin.

i ordered these gloves for the UPF50+ protection for my hands while kayaking.
They seem well made (time will tell)
The fit is True and very good.
The grip is very good on my wood paddles and also on my carbon fiber paddle. Both when dry or wet.
The one thing i wonder about, is IF the UPF50+ factor is still good when the material is wet??? They seem almost see thru when wet and i have to think the UV will travel thru to my skin? Very curious about that.

I got these for working in the arctic. They work for beating the sun and mosquitoes but the way they are hemmed around the knuckles is a bit uncomfortable.

I love having sun gloves that actually look pretty. I bought these to use for hiking but now use them to keep the sun off my aging hands when I'm driving. My one negative is the HUGE OR logo on the top of the gloves. I hate being used as a billboard. The logo could be included in a smaller size and not on top. I want to see the beauty of the design first thing, not a logo.
