Black isn't a viable option.
You'll have to double-check with the seller, but it should be a set.
The Metolius Full Finger Belay Glove is a good all-around belay glove. It was purchased to replace a pair of kangaroo leather gloves that had served me well for over 20 years. Unfortunately, due to government restrictions, I am unable to import those into the country where I now reside. After looking at a variety of options, Amazon recommended this product, which is made of goat skin. Although the leather is thick, you can tie knots with it, even in thin cord, which is one of the main reasons I chose this product over others. They become more supple as you wear them for longer periods of time.
Selected User Reviews For Metolius Full Finger Belay Glove
To begin with, these beasts are tougher than a $5 steak! You're not going to be able to get rid of them. After nearly ten years, my last pair decided to retire. They gnaw on broken glass and barbed wire and then laugh hysterically. br>You will never own a pair of *ss gloves as bad as these. Just keep in mind that they are a little on the big side. I'm a size 10 in both clothes and shoes. I usually wear a glove in the size range of large to extra large. A medium will fit fine with these, but I prefer the large to allow for some shrinkage if they are wet frequently. Make the necessary preparations. (It was docked a star because it was made in China. )br>Highly recommendedbr>Thank you for reading.
Love the durability of this glove; this is my second pair of Metolius gloves; my first pair was a half finger glove that I still use today; I purchased another full finger of this glove for winter use. br>br>My only complaint is that the left and right side skin patterns on the full finger glove I received are different (see my photo). Apart from that, everything is as it should be.
The size is 10 inches around my palm, sized down to large, and the fit is perfect. It's a smidgeon too tight, but the finger length and thumb to index web are ideal, and it'll break in nicely. Thick burley leather glove, you get what you pay for, this isn't a cheap Home Depot gardening glove, in my opinion, get the size you wear everywhere else and ignore the size chart.
This is the third pair of gloves that I've purchased. I just got it. From the previous sewn loop, they've added a new carabiner cutout. It appears to be beefier than the previous version, which should improve durability even more. To save a few bucks, I tried a couple of other brands, but I decided to stick with these after previous good results. I use them for technical rope activities and Search and Rescue on rocky, uneven terrain.
Gloves that are at the top of their game. It may seem like a waste to use them, but once you do, they will serve you well. Unlike most work, they are well-suited to small hands. gloves used in sports The quality of their material is excellent, and it is visually appealing. leather that is thick. I bought these because I couldn't bear working in my previous pair. Not because I'd exhausted them or because they'd let me down in any way.
