Really curious about how to improve the durability of gloves such that when worn with rubber boots in deeper water sceneries where there may be more marine growth? I have also looked at other handpieces to substitute my diving gloves. Happy with 3mm neoprene thickness, this has to be a recommended handpiece for my next two dives.

Thank you for your review of the Mares Flexa Classic Gloves, Hannah. We’re glad to hear that you’re happy with the 3mm neoprene thickness. To improve the durability of your gloves, we recommend patting them dry after each use and conditioning them with a rubber conditioner to prevent the neoprene from cracking. You can also consider applying a thin layer of neoprene spray to the affected areas to provide extra protection. As for alternative handpieces, we’d be happy to discuss our other options with you in more detail. Please feel free to contact our customer support team for further recommendations. What type of diving do you plan to do on your next two dives?

What makes the Flexa Classic Gloves stand out is the 3mm thick, double-lined neoprene material that provides excellent thermal protection and comfort. The printed palm grip is also a nice touch, adding extra reassurance while handling the gear.
Rochelle Lee –
The Mares Flexa Classic gloves is extremely efficient for this beginner. Highly suggested, since it’s extremely easy to put on, which makes it incredibly intuitive to have in hand. Upon analysis, gloves fit extremely well, very elegant and comes in good colors. The price is okay, though.

I’m not sure when will they redesign the palm of the gloves as the design could be more modernized. Still, it does its job and withstood a number of dives. It’s a good starter for a typical DIY diver. Using this gloves for a longer period could result in the separation of seams.
Eugene Yam –
How would the Flexa Classic Gloves hold up against rough underwater environments? Do they have any kind of reinforcement to prevent damage?
Imran Hanafiah –
Thank you for your question, Eugene. The Mares Flexa Classic Gloves are designed to withstand rough underwater environments. They feature a 3mm thick, double-lined neoprene material that provides excellent protection against abrasion and tears, preventing damage to the glove. Additionally, the printed palm adds a layer of grip, ensuring a secure hold on tools or other underwater equipment. While they are durable, we still recommending regular maintenance to extend their lifespan.

Is the Mares Flexa Classic’s material double-lined neoprene with a printed palm? How does this handpiece provide the resistance to water?
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for sharing your interest in our product, May! The Flexa Classic Gloves indeed feature a 3mm thick double-lined neoprene material, which provides excellent flexibility, durability, and thermal insulation for your hands. The printed palm on our gloves is designed to boost grip and traction in wet conditions, ensuring you maintain a firm hold on tools and gear. The double-lined neoprene material also plays a significant role in resisting water. Its unique construction allows for water to be pushed away from the skin, reducing heat loss and increasing comfort during use. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to ask! We value your feedback and would like to hear about your experiences with our product.
