WindRider Ultra Grip Gloves

Description

WindRider Ultra Grip Gloves are the ultimate solution for anyone in need of a high-quality grip. The palm of these gloves is made from an ultra premium material that offers superior grip compared to other sailing gloves on the market. Whether you're sailing, paddling, or working with metal objects, these gloves provide the best grip possible.

Not only do these gloves excel in grip, but they also feature an ergonomic design for enhanced comfort and grip. The gloves are pre-shaped to eliminate any bunching of material in the palm when closing your hand, ensuring a perfect fit every time.

One of the standout features of the WindRider Ultra Grip Gloves is their breathability. With a mesh back, these gloves prevent overheating, making them exceptionally comfortable to wear. The 4-way stretch fabric further enhances their comfort, making them the most comfortable sailing gloves you've ever used.

In terms of padding, these gloves strike the perfect balance. They feature a small amount of padding in critical areas to provide comfort when gripping a paddle or hoisting the main. You can now enjoy your activities without any discomfort.

WindRider Ultra Grip Gloves also boast a low profile wrist design and a soft rubber velcro closure. This ensures that the gloves won't interfere with the buttons on your race watch, giving you a hassle-free experience.

Now, let's address some frequently asked questions about these gloves:

Q: Is there a sizing chart/guide?

A: I am a female with size 10-11 feet and large hands, and I found that the men's large gloves were a bit big for me.

Q: Are these men's gloves? My boys wear women's large, should I get this in large or medium?

A: I would recommend getting the medium size.

Q: Looking for paddling gloves with ample padding between the thumb and hand. Any recommendations?

A: I have been using these gloves for a year and have been really pleased with their performance. Over time, the gloves loosen up for a better fit.

Q: When I kayak, the area between my thumb and first finger becomes painful. Are these gloves thick in that area?

A: There is some padding in that area. These gloves are thick enough to protect against blisters and provide additional comfort.
