Are these gloves good for sailing in general? The finger material will have to be thick enough to not get burned by a rope sliding at high speeds.

I use them for fishing in the winter. I don't have much rope to pull on because I am trolling and my hands are rough to begin with. They would work if you have to pull on rope. Fast moving rope may burn through the glove, they are thin. The glove comes to the first knuckle.

They should prove to be OK with those items, so long as they are not too small in size. The fingertips have a better feel than most gloves with this quality of warmth do. The index fingers on the gloves have a small patch of leather-ish fabric that may or may not serve a purpose, depending on use. I have used them in EMS (ambulance patient care) and have had no problems with tearing surgical tape, attaching straps and patient securing gear, and operated other medical devices with them on. Obviously, they are going to pose a barrier problem of some sorts, but overall, I think they are better than most (of similar quality) in fingertip feel and comfort. Hope that helps!

Yes! Absolutely! These gloves are great for gaming and will most definitely increase the blood flow and circulation while your fingers are gaming at a fast pace! Thank you for your interest and support of our IMAK Compression Active Gloves.

I used it for surfing Santa Cruz waters and San Francisco's. I believe a 3mm should do very well. This glove is so hard to take off and put on. it's definitely meant for heavy duty but not if you won't soak it up with water, otherwise it'll be super heated, andbit becomes heavy especially when I have to paddle for waves.

I don't feel that they slip much and they don't cover a substantial part of your wrist, so I would think it should work. I love these gloves! I want to get some heavier ones now.

The gloves are especially warm on their own. They are great because they are waterproof so your hands will not get wet. They should be find for what you say you want them for, except the small containers will be dependent on what size you get. If they are too big, then they are harder to use to do anything.

Absolutely! At first they may seem very tight and restrictive as they are designed to protect your hand and wrist when you fall down on asphalt or cement which you do a lot of with street rollerskates but after a while they loosen up and your fingers can move very well but in the beginning they will be very tight.

I use the gloves at the farm cleaning and filling waters in cold weather. They will keep your hands dry as long you don't snag them. jI don't any experience with high wind wet conditions.

I am not sure on the wind factor. I believe they should keep your hands warm. The pair I purchased were for ice fishing.

The finger gloves keep their shape well with normal use. However, as with any product, it would depend on what they would be used for. Hope this helps!

I can tell you that these gloves are pretty water resilient. I wouldn't submerge your hand in any chemical compound, with these are any gloves but if you do get some chemical on them, I would try to get the chemical off quickly. I'm not sure it would cause great damage to the glove or you so don't do anything too extreme.

I have never used them for this application. But I hear of people doing that with these type of glove. I have heard stories of success with this. It would be a cheap solution at least. Give it a shot what do you have to lose?

Shouldn't be a problem. I use them for a combat class and by the time they get a little "damp", if you know what I mean, they feel pretty loose. The palms are a light material, not leather. Hope that helps. I really like them.

They might. They are snug without being constricting. In the garden the material, though sturdy, is thin enough for exacting work. You might also consider the gloves which are "fingerless," from about the knuckle to the tip of the finger.

No... Don't ride a bike, but these gloves don't look thin enough to go under anything. They are so great, you don't need a liner. Wore them in the Arctic (-15 C) and fingers were oh so warm

They are cut resistant, not puncture resistant. Kevlar that's thick enough to prevent punctures tends to be pretty stiff and not great for gloves. Your best bet for puncture-proof gloves would probably be leather welder's gloves or "fireplace gloves" if you can find them. Nothing woven or very breathable will be great against punctures, so go with stiff/thick leather.

I cannot say for sure. I will tell you that the material in the same as the rest of the glove and it is very thick. I love these gloves and will probably get my daughter a pair.
