Neoprene gloves

On this page you can explore our range of neoprene gloves. This smart type of glove can be used for a little bit of everything, but is a must if you're a diver, surfer, open water swimmer or just love outdoor water sports in general. They both protect and warm your hands when the sea temperatures are cool, but they can also be used on land to great advantage.

You'll find many different models and sizes here, so take your time and choose the right set of gloves for what you'll be doing in the open sea. While you're at it, you can also check out our neoprene socks, which are a perfect addition for those who aren't put off by cold waves and grey clouds.

How neoprene gloves work

Neoprene is primarily used to make wetsuits, but is widely used in the water sports world in general. It is a synthetic rubber filled with lots of tiny air bubbles. This gives the material a unique insulating effect. It works by trapping a thin layer of water between your body and the glove. Your body then heats the water, which means that you help create the effect that keeps you warm. The water stays where it is as long as the glove fits properly. Of course, ours does.

Neoprene is perfect for the cool temperatures we often find in Denmark in spring, autumn and even summer. The thicker the neoprene gets, the more the insulating effect increases. Therefore, you need to consider how long you want to stay warm and how cold it gets. In many cases, a thickness of between 2 and 4 millimetres will help you as long as you are not going to be in the water for several hours at a time.

In addition to gloves, everything from socks, boots, swimming trunks and hoods are also made in neoprene if you want to be completely warm.

It's a super lightweight material, so it can easily be used for sports. The many tiny bubbles can even help create buoyancy when you swim. Of course, you don't have to wear a pair of neoprene gloves to beat your personal record at an event at the swimming pool, but if you're a competitive open-water swimmer, you shouldn't be afraid to wear neoprene gloves.

What you can use gloves for when swimming in open water

Neoprene gloves can be used by open water swimmers, triathletes, divers, beach enthusiasts, sailors and surfers. In addition to keeping you warm, the gloves also protect against sharp edges and sharp rocks. As a diver, you can easily have to make your way through narrow passages, so it makes sense to wrap your body well.

Minor accidents on the boat can also happen quickly, and it's easy to get cold fingers when the waves come crashing in. Therefore, the effectiveness of neoprene gloves should not be underestimated when it comes to sailing, even if there is not always direct contact with the sea.

If you're heading south, it may not seem instinctive to wrap up your hands, but if you're planning to spend a long time in the sea, it's always a good idea to bring a pair of gloves just in case. You can get hypothermia even in warm weather if the water temperature is lower than your body temperature.

If you're washing a car or working with damp soil outdoors, neoprene gloves can also be your best friend. They're easy to move your fingers and provide far better protection than a normal pair of gardening gloves. Gardening and car washing aren't always the most fun things in the world, but if you wear your neoprene gloves while you're doing it, you can at least stay warm and avoid sore fingers.

So it's safe to say that you're investing in a bit of a wonder product. Many pairs are sold every year, which is understandable when you consider the many possible uses.
