I work on board tug boats in the harbor of NY/NJ and wanted a waterproof cold weather glove to handle wet lines during the winter, or to wear in a cold rain where every other garment of mine is warm and waterproof. This is a decent glove if you dont plan on actually getting it wet. (putting it under a faucet isn’t really a good test). In actual use, I’ve found that the gloves are more water “resistant”, not waterproof. They start out fine, but after 10 minutes of handling wet lines, the inside starts to get wet and cold real fast. I still wear them, but shelf them for PVC lobsterman gloves when I know they’re really going to get wet. On the flip side, if you’re only going to get them wet occasionally, or accidentally, these will be fine. (chances are though, such people won’t be shopping for a glove labeled “waterPROOF”). There could also be more insulation. . . in the future, I dont think I’ll consider a glove with a thin fleece lining to be a “winter” glove. On the good side, the dexterity is good, enough to operate a handheld VHF radio, (dont expect to send text messages with them) and after 3 months of constant abuse, they’ve held up great. 3 stars though for not living up to a major selling point.
