Check these out.
Look nice for paddling and whatever. Just may have to try them out. "On The Fly" fly fishing shop posted this on Facebook. They're at 4203 W. El Prado in Tampa just west of Dale Mabry.

Re: "Buff" paddling gloves.
I already got a pair for myself for my birthday and absolutely love them. I like that they are longer fingers than my old gloves and they really stay alot cooler than the others. They also dry MUCH faster than others I've had. Good Buy!

Re: "Buff" paddling gloves.
Bought them a couple of months ago and wear them all the time. Very comfortable and work well when flyfishing.

They're just soo expensive.
I need something though. The back of my hands are looking leathery.

Don't get me started about the whole skin cancer thing and how painful and expensive that is! I dig Buff stuff!Redfisher wrote:They're just soo expensive.

Re: "Buff" paddling gloves.
I hear you. That stays on my mind. I wear a big goofy hat and long sleeve shirts most of the time. I try to remember to keep sunblock on my hands, but gloves would be nice. I bought the lightweight sun gloves but they were useless because of how slick they were. The paddle would just twist in my hands. These would be sweet but $40 is just too much right now.kneedeep wrote:Don't get me started about the whole skin cancer thing and how painful and expensive that is!

Well worth the money. I went back and forth about spending $40 for a pair of gloves. I reluctantly gave in and glad I did.

Re: "Buff" paddling gloves.
Nice to see more tech\materials being used\created for sun gloves. I've been using these for years and love 'em. Dry quick and just overall good feel. I can't stand heavy\thick paddle gloves, ugh. I highly recommend trying them on in the store for proper fit, btw!

Re: "Buff" paddling gloves.
Those look really nice, but I cant find them anyplace for sale. I even looked on planetbuff.com. I did however find some similar ones that look pretty good also.

Re: "Buff" paddling gloves.
I found a nice pair by Simms. 19.95 with free shipping.
Re: "Buff" paddling gloves.
I saw a couple styles at the West Marine in Holiday yesterday. They look nice, but I will use my old ones if need be.
Yes, I can get 20 feet of Pontoon boat equipment on a 16 foot Pontoon boat....
