My blue gloves arrived from TackleWarehouse.com in a size medium.

Quality/Construction: Aftco is known for producing some quality garments, and the construction of these sun gloves won't disappoint. Utilizing polyester and spandex construction, they are put together very well with a soft, inviting feel and clean stitching throughout. The material and stitching is also strong enough to resist some forceful pulling and stretching. There is no inner or palm lining present.

These gloves exhibit a minimalist, clean appearance.

Performance: Not only do these gloves give you solid sun protection, but they are very easy to live with. They breathe well, dry fast, are comfy, and allow for nice mobility. With that said, the finger holes are slightly tighter than average on me and when my fingers are spread apart widely there's a hint of resistance since the holes are all bound together in a “webbed” style. It's not at all what I'd call uncomfortable, just a bit different.

The finger holes exhibit a “webbed” type of design

This particular color shows even light dirt and stains easily. The smooth palm is fine in most situations but lacks grip when using rods with graphite handles or when poling a flats skiff

Features: These Aftco gloves are basic in their features. There is no liner or built-in palm grip, and they don't boast any special features like adjustability or water-repellant properties. The wrist coverage is good, but the finger coverage (aside from the thumb) is a bit shorter than I'd like. On the plus side, any water they come in contact with dries extremely fast and they sport a high UV rating of 50+.

The stitching and material is neat and tidy

The left glove features an outer Aftco label

Design and Ergonomics: Although marketed as a “fingerless” design, these gloves cover my thumbs up to the knuckles and my other four fingers roughly halfway to the knuckles. The webbed finger design is different, but as mentioned the mobility and comfort is just fine. These are easy to wear all day long and roll up to nearly nothing which makes storing them in your pocket or a console glovebox a breeze.

The short, webbed fingers makes the gloves slightly harder to take off (especially when wet) unless you pull them from the wrists and remove them inside out.

The material sits loosely but comfortably around my narrow wrists.

Application: You can wear the Aftco Sun Gloves for many outdoor adventures besides just fishing. Consider them for activities like hunting, jogging, or hiking. With three different colors available you can match them to the rest of your outfit, if so desired.

Conclusion: Sun protection is a serious matter, and these sun gloves from Aftco offer outdoor enthusiasts yet another avenue of protection. I can't proclaim these as my favorite sun gloves thus far, but they are satisfyingly comfortable to wear and make an ideal choice if you are looking for gloves that aren't expensive and maintain a very low profile.
