Blackovis glomitts

[Blandry]

I purchased some of these and just got a chance to use them due to our late winter here in CO. They're a price/quality steal imo. https://www.blackovis.com/blackovis-taiga-softshell-waterproof-glomitt

they have wrist slings for stripping them quickly w/o dropping, wrist cinches, pairing locks, goatskin palms.. really nice gloves that were advertised at $100+.. great deal.

Good to know, as I just ordered some a couple days ago. Needed to upgrade following a late season Mule Deer hunt. Got mine off camofire for a good discount.

I'm pretty sure i got mine as well on discount for about $60 shipped.. they're top notch glomitts and something everyone should need. Also submerged them to check the water resistance and they never got soaked internally. Just a incredible buy.

How was the sizing on these? Deciding between L and XL

 

[Blandry]

You know I have somewhat medium hands but typically order large size gloves. This time I ordered medium and they're perfect so sizing is pretty true. Large would have an extra 1'' of length and be too long I think.

I'm trying to size down on things now days to increase the insulation efficiency.

My hand is right at 7.5'' tip of middle finger to end of palm if that helps. Medium is perfect.

I did a water dump test on those and my Sitka goretex regular gloves.. they kept water out after a full immersion for 5 mins just as well as the goretex. They're great glomitts, warm and cheap.

I haven't been letdown by any of my blackovis gear. They have a great price/performance point.

That's pretty impressive, and good to know. I'm just starting to accumulate gear over the past year or two and don't have any blackovis yet, so this would likely be my first piece if I end up getting the gloves.
