Great for germ control at the gym By Point Reyes Chick from Point Reyes National Seashore on 11/16/2009 Pros: Dries Quickly, Protection from germs Best Uses: Holding treadmill Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I bought three of these for the GYM. They are perfect for this use because they are light weight. They are not full gloves, YET they are not the short fingers either like most gym gloves. Perfect coverage. The tips of my fingers stick out, which keeps me from over heating. I don't like touching gym equipment. It's gross. These glove's also remind me not to touch my face with potential germs. I use the top of the gloves to wipe my brow. By the end of a really good work out they are sopping wet, but that's why I bought three. I can wash and allow them to dry. The label states that are to be hand washed and not dried, I assume because the SPF would wear off, but I don't care about that, so I wash in machine and air dry and they are fine. Great price at STP. I am a woman with good size hands and the M fit me perfectly.

Good Product at Good Price By FlyerHiker from Lake Tahoe on 09/14/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Dries Quickly, Good Protection from the Sun Best Uses: Backpacking, Hiking Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Nice product, the finger coverage is greater than with some similar gloves I purchased at REI. I've met other hikers that have used one pair for several years, but after one washing I'm not sure about the durability. Very comfortable... not too hot to wear hiking in mid-day sun.

The pinky fingers on the gloves rolled and bunched as I used them with my trekking polls. My sweat was trapped in the back of the glove and didn't dry like I had hoped it would.
