Sun Protection Gloves?

[Sandwich Maker]

Anyone use them? Any input appreciated.

Don't know about the gloves but they should work just fine if you can still fish in them.
My dermatologist told me that he highly recommended a sunscreen with a SPF of 50. He suggested to me Coppertone Spectra 50. I tried it and it applies well and is not greasy.
I also say where a guy said that it was very important to apply sunscreen at least 15 minutes before getting in the sun and reapply several times during the day.
A good hat is just as important as the top of the ears is one of the places that can develop skin cancer first.

I have been using fingerless gloves for 20 years. The style I use have the small rubber bumps on them which gives you a little addditional gripping. They work very well and they not only keep the sun off of your hands but they also keep you from getting finned as much.

I purchase mine off the internet and buy them a dozen pair at a time. I think I pay around 15 bucks a dozen. I probably go thru 2 pair a year. I would not go out without my gloves. If you need additional info just PM me and I will try to answer any questions you have

I always wear a pair of sungloves when I fish. They are light, comfortable and fingerless, so you can easily tie knots.

Have to admit even though I don't wear mine like I should, they are pretty comfortable. I think they came from Cabela's and are kind of a flesh color and thin. I think this next year I will try to use them more and sure don't need to push stuff like that.

I also wear the sungloves mentioned above, they are very comfortable to fish in.
After a lifetime of sun exposure and having skin cancers removed from both hands and face
I finally got the message.
Long sleeve shirts, gloves, wide brimmed hats, and sunscreen applied liberally for me.
Trying to maintain what I got left.

Yeah, I dress the same.

In the most recent Sports Illustrated (Stan Musial on the cover), they had a brief, sad article mentioning former Steeler's coach Bill Cowher. His wife just died -- from skin cancer.

Don't let it happen to you.

I'm not that delicate, so I don't have to worry.

I've spent my life outside and have always had a good tan.

The sun shining on your skin is a good source of vitaminD!
