Sizing is a bit iffy but great gloves
I ordered all three sizes since the reviews were all over the place. I found that the small fit me the best. I wear a womens M in gloves as a rule, a size 8 ring on my left ring finger and have somewhat longer fingers than average - particularly my middle fingers. The M in this glove was very close with a better fit in the wrist area however the size M was about 1/2" too long at the middle finger. That allows too much water in the gloves and takes away from the insulating properties. I was concerned that once wet the size M would become too lose and defeat the purpose of wearing the gloves. I wore the S while snorkeling recently and they indeed losened up a bit but still kept my hands warm. To further help with figuring a size for women (or men) I wear a M in the white goatskin work gloves from Harbor Freight. Those run small for men and true for women.I hope that helps others decide on a correct size.

Great for scuba diving, true to size
I've never liked gloves; I'd rather be cold than lose dexterity. But they were required for a cleanup dive I did, so I went looking for the thinnest pair I could get and settled on these. They are actually really comfortable; the seams are small and in a good place to allow me to pick up small objects without fumbling. And even though they're thin, they're much warmer than nothing. I've started wearing these on all my dives. The contrast color also makes hand signals easy for my buddy to read. I have big hands (see photo), and the Large fit well. I just wish I'd only bought that size instead of getting the medium too based on reviews that said they run large; I had to pay for return shipping which was more than half the cost of the gloves.Update: I just ordered my third pair. The first lasted about 3 months, which included about 30 dives, before coming apart at one seam. They were still pretty serviceable and I probably could have fixed them, but at $10 a pair I decided to just replace them. The second pair has lasted almost a year, about 75 dives, and is looking a bit pilled and ragged in addition to coming apart at one seam. So they're not the most durable thing I've ever bought, but given the price I'm still OK with that. I still find them to be surprisingly effective without getting in my way.

Poor Quality - Do Not Buy
The threading on the gloves split the first time I used them (see photo). Extremely poor quality. Unfortunately, I had them for over 30 days before I went diving and just lost all my money. Total rip off.

THE glove u need
We dive allot , 4 times a year. These gloves are great. They allow you to utilize your fingers and still have gloves on. Protective in the open ocean . Easily shoved in your wetsuit when you need to take them off. These are our go to dive gloves

Great for cold water swimming
These gloves are like a wetsuit for your hands— they do not keep hands dry, but do maintain warmth for cold water sport such as autumn swimming. I used them today in 45 degrees air temp and 60 degree water temp and they make late season swims much more comfortable. They would be useful for water sports such as kayaking or surfing as well, but would not recommend for sailing where lines need to be handled because they are only thin neoprene (like a wetsuit) so are not durable with friction. The fit is fine, and for the price I am happy with them.

Nice and warm
I used these gloves for extra warmth in open water swimming and they serve the function pretty well. There is a certain amount of stretch as the neoprene becomes saturated - that means that although the gloves are a perfect fit when I put them on, they get big and the tips got a little floppy when I swam. I wish the velcro wrist tabs could be set tighter as that might have helped counteract that loosening up. Still, they helped keep me warm and the price was right!

Inexpensive and Durable.
I had a pair of those for years after my expensive Scubapro ones tore in less than six months. I loved them so much that bought the exact same ones when I forgot mine back at the hotel in Cairnes. They still had some miles miles on them after several years, so hopefully some housekeeper is diving the Great Barrier reef with them right now! And I have a brand new pair for under ten bucks. :-D

Incorrect sizing
These appear to be decent gloves, they are thin but that is expected and in fact I bought them because they will allow a better feel for picking up objects in cold water. They appear to be fairly well made. The down side it the SIZE... I purchased large because I wanted the extra room....no dice. The Large size is appropriate for my 5'2" normal build wife. It is hard to imagine a medium or small fitting any adult. They have some stretch but np where near enough.
