Jason Lee –
I don’t think these gloves are suitable for general hand use. Not meant for everyday wear.
Emily Chen –
I loved how comfortable and warm the 2mm Flexa Touch glove is! I use it for scuba diving and it offers maximum dexterity without sacrificing warmth. Highly recommended!
Rachel Khoo –
I recently used these gloves for a cold winter dive and they really made a difference. The only thing I wish is that they also had grip on the palms. Would be perfect!
Jan Tan –
The minimalist design really shows off the materials and craftsmanship. Does the material have any antibacterial properties?
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for your review of the Mares Flexa Touch Gloves, Jan. The water-resistant and breathable material used in our gloves is treated with an antibacterial property, which helps prevent the growth of bacteria and mildew. This ensures your gloves stay fresh and odor-free. Please let us know if you have any further questions or concerns about this product.
Alex Tan –
What if the gloves also had a wetsuit material to make them even more waterproof?
Junhao Lo –
That’s an interesting idea, Alex! Our Mares Flexa Touch Gloves are designed to provide a great balance between warmth and dexterity. While adding a wetsuit material could potentially increase water resistance, it might also reduce the glove’s flexibility and make it less suitable for reaching into wetsuit jammers. However, we appreciate your feedback and will consider it for future product developments.
