Read MoreSome frequently asked questions that other customers have asked us about Gill Sailing Gloves.
What type of Gill sailing gloves are best for dinghy racing?
For most dinghy racing, a three-quarter finger or short finger glove is the right call. You get palm protection and grip without losing feel on the sheets. Gill's racing glove range is cut specifically for this, with reinforced palms and a secure wrist closure that stays put when you're hiking.
How do I care for Gill sailing gloves to make them last?
Rinse them in fresh water after every sail and let them dry naturally away from direct heat. Don't leave them damp in your kit bag. Gill gloves use synthetic materials that hold up well with basic care, and regular rinsing prevents salt build-up that degrades the grip over time.
Are Gill gloves suitable for cold water sailing?
Yes. Gill produces insulated and long-finger glove options designed for cold conditions, using thermal materials that retain warmth even when wet. If you're sailing through winter or in early spring, look for the winter or offshore glove styles in the range rather than the standard racing options.
