Overview
Fingerless sun gloves rated UPF 50+, made from a nylon, silicone and spandex blend for fishing and other outdoor use. Sold in a Large-X-Large size in white.
UPF 50+ fingerless gloves cover the back of the hand and forearm from sun exposure while leaving fingertips free for tying knots and handling line. Silicone content in the blend typically shows up as grip patches on the palm, useful for handling wet gear. White is a warm-weather color choice but shows dirt and fish slime more readily than darker gloves.
- UPF 50+ sun protection
- Nylon, silicone and spandex blend
- Fingerless design for finger dexterity
- Large-X-Large size in white
Who it's for
Suits anglers who spend long hours in direct sun and want forearm and hand coverage without losing finger dexterity for tackle work. Not a cold-weather glove, since the spandex and nylon blend is built for breathability rather than insulation.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- UPF 50+ blocks sun on hands and forearms
- Fingerless cut keeps dexterity for knots and tackle
- Stretch blend fits a Large-X-Large range
- One size range only, no smaller fit offered
- White shows dirt and fish slime quickly
Performance notes
UPF 50+ is a fabric rating, meaning the weave itself blocks the stated fraction of UV rather than relying on a coating that washes out. The nylon and spandex blend stretches to fit the Large-X-Large range while staying breathable in heat, and the fingerless cut keeps thumb and index finger free for knot tying and lure changes. Silicone in the material typically adds tack to the palm for a better hold on rods and line.
