Finding the right winter sailing gloves for sailing in the colder months used to be very difficult, with limited options most of the neoprene gloves were windsurfing gloves with little to no grip on them and became very uncomfortable after wearing them for long periods of time.
Below are 3 different winter sailing gloves that take 3 different approaches to keeping your hands warm during the winter months and colder days on the water.
The Gill 3 Season Gloves are constructed from 2mm neoprene flexible enough to have great dexterity but enough protection to keep your hands warm and protected from the cold water. These pre shaped gloves reduce strain on your arms. The seams are integrated in lower traffic areas of the gloves to keep them from irritating your hands. Extended cuffs give you the ability to tuck them under other layers. The 3 seasons gloves are currently the only gloves in this class to have the same grip as your standard sailing gloves and the warmth of the neoprene winter sailing glove.
The Zhik Superwarm gloves are the warmest winter sailing gloves around. The Superwarm gloves are constructed from the same super stretch thermal neoprene as the Superwarm wetsuits. The hydrophobic water repellent outer and glued and blind stitched seams keep the water out. These gloves are not made for intense rope work, they are better suited to use on a day boat when on the tiller.
They can be used for rope work if they are combined with a pair of Tactical gloves that go over the top of the Superwarm gloves to protect them from wear. The grippy palms of the Superwarm gloves grip on to the inside of the Tactical gloves and the extra layers hold in the heat.
The Showa 451 are constructed from knitted cotton and polyester with a thermal lining. The seamless design and flexible constitution makes them incredibly skin friendly. The latex grip is shaped to the shape of your hand this in combination with the elasticated wrist give a snug dynamic fit.
The Showa 451 gloves were not originally designed for sailing they were made for building sites in the colder winter months. This made them great for sailing as they were designed for great grip in the wet and the dry whilst keeping your hands warm. These gloves are a great competitive price being almost 10% of the price of other winter sailing gloves.
Delivery was super quick after bank holiday, and product is just as described. Super convenient pockets inside a comfy backpack kitbag so great and practical for walking to/from dinghy parks
Just a small item, a bung! The super quick delivery got me back on the water. Thank you.
Good rope for low load jobs - easy to splice, smooth and flexible.
Perfectly layed out numbers
WIP have really pulled out all the stops on this impact vest to suit all forms of hi-performance watersports. Feels great on, good snug fit - no restrictions to movement and doesn't impact on trapezing like a lot of buoyancy aids. A very well made, high quality vest that has everything you need to keep you safe on the water.
Purchased for my old Albacore sailing dinghy. This is a well made quality cover with straps and clips that look like they’ll last many years. I no longer have to bail out the boat before sailing!
Found the staff at Sailing Chandlery most helpful to a no-yachtsman with flags to fly to cheer the day.
It may seem strange but my husband purchased this item as he was making me some wooden bunting for our outside space. The range of colours was fab and the rope is ideal for our needs.
