## Description

desertcart.com : Gill Deckhand Sailing Gloves Short Finger with 3/4 Length Fingers - 50+ UV Sun Protection & Water Repellent - Black S : Sports & Outdoors

Review: Gill vs Helly Hansen vs FitsT4 - This is a review of partial finger sailing gloves comparing: Helly Hansen vs FitsT4 Sports vs Gill Deckhand My hands have a 9” circumference at the knuckles. All gloves sizes were chosen per the company's size chart for a 9" hand. Gill and Helly Hansen were Large. FitsT4 were Extra Large. Helly Hansen: Good construction. I liked the full wrap of reinforcement on the fingers. These gloves had the snuggest fit of the group, especially through the palm and fingers (just a smidge tighter than the Gill but definitely tighter than the FitsT4). The thumb fit however is quite loose. FitsT4: largest of the three pairs. Not bad gloves. Lighter build than the other pairs. Would be good for somebody that needs them occasionally or for light use. Comfortable. The gloves had the shortest fingers of the group. The description of the FitsT4 says they are 3/4 gloves – I would consider them more “half-finger” gloves. One of the things that I did not like about the FitsT4, is that the palm reinforcement did not cover the area between the thumb and fore finger. This is an area that definitely gets wear from control lines. Gill: Nice construction and comfortable. I felt these gloves were a little roomier than the Helly Hansen gloves. They also had the longest fingers of the group. A feature that these gloves had (that the others didn’t) was pull loops on the middle and ring finger. Sometimes wet sailing gloves can be a challenge to get off – these pull loops are a great aid to removing them at the end of the day. Conclusion: I would rate both the Gill and the Helly-Hansen 5-stars. They both have quality construction and materials and are well designed. I would give the FitsT4 a 4-star rating because they are built lighter and don’t have full reinforcement between the thumb and forefinger. On the other-hand (no pun intended), they’re decent gloves and are less expensive than the Gill and Helly Hansen gloves. If you only need sailing gloves from time-to-time, they would be a great option. I decided to keep the Gill gloves and return the Helly-Hansen and FitsT4 because of better fit for my hands and the pull loops on the fingers, but I would be happy with any of these gloves.
Review: High quality safety gear. No regrets - Great sailing gloves, just the right coverage and thickness. I can easily haul lines without hurting my hands, while still having fingertips free to manage instruments. I wear large gloves, and size large fits me very well. They go on and come off easily, but don’t slip while I’m wearing them. Initial quality and craftsmanship were impressive with clean material edges and tight seams. After two seasons on foredeck on a race boat there are no signs of wear and they’ve become even more comfortable. Gill is a respected brand and these gloves live up to the hype. The online price easily beats marine stores. You need good gloves on deck, and these will not disappoint.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What should I do if I am between sizes?**
A: If you are between sizes, we recommend sizing up. The rear volume adjustment at the cuff can be tightened to secure the fit on smaller wrists, giving you a snug, comfortable feel without going too small.

**Q: How does the rear volume adjustment work?**
A: The rear volume adjustment strap lets you dial in wrist fit to your preference. Tighten it for a more secure hold or loosen it for greater freedom of movement, accommodating a range of wrist circumferences without adding bulk.

**Q: Why do the fingers not extend to my fingertips — is that a sizing issue?**
A: No — this is intentional. The 3/4-length finger design leaves your fingertips exposed to maximize dexterity for handling lines and equipment. The coverage ending at the upper finger is the designed cut, not a fit problem.
