I started wearing them (again) when I went to get fingerprinted for a license and the cop saw my hands and said, "come back when your hands heal up, they are pretty chewed up". I now wear those gloves while I am scalloping...My XL's fit perfect and they save my hands from exposure to cold winds as well as when I have to shuck'em too. Every now and again you get one with a shell that is like a rusty razor..I love em and plan on geting a second pair. I also have the heavier glacer gloves, they are heavier but they do not keep my hands as warm for some reason and you don't have the dextarity of the thinner glove. I use them as backup gloves. I was very impressed how they held up to casting braid this season, the finger looks fine...they are pretty rugged given their small thickness. Good product.
