Lightweight fingerless gloves with UPF 50+ protection for warm-weather fishing and paddling.
These fingerless sun gloves from Calamus carry a UPF 50+ rating and an extended cuff that covers the wrists and part of the forearms. A silicone-patterned microfiber palm helps with grip on rods, paddles and tools, while the three-quarter finger cut leaves fingertips free for knots, bait and hooks. The nylon and spandex fabric is a pull-on design with tabs for getting them on and off, suited to long days on the water.
