DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Warmth and comfort
You'll quickly feel the difference in temperature thanks to the plush lining, which provides soft insulation to reduce the discomfort of cold. The 4/3 neoprene balances insulation and mobility, which is practical when you need to handle a bar, a paddle, or change position without removing your gloves.
Lobster Design and Feel
The lobster cut brings certain fingers together to limit heat loss while leaving your index finger and thumb free for a solid grip. On the water, you'll maintain excellent sensitivity to control your bar or handle, without feeling like your hand is too bulky.
Design and Materials
At the core of this product is 4/3 neoprene combined with a super-soft inner lining. This pairing prioritizes warmth and immediate comfort. The interior finish makes them easy to put on and minimizes irritation during long sessions.
Choosing the Right Size
Size affects both warmth and dexterity: a glove that's too tight will reduce insulation, while one that's too loose will decrease sensitivity. The ION Lobster Mitten 4/3 is available in XS, M, and L: choose a size that fits your palm without excessive wrinkles at the wrist.
Care and Lifespan
Rinse with fresh water after each session to remove salt and sand, then dry in the shade away from direct heat. The super-soft lining is comfortable but deserves careful treatment to preserve its insulating properties longer.
On-Water Use
Designed for cool conditions, the open palm glove keeps your hands warm enough to extend your sessions. Whether you're managing a bar or a paddle, the lobster cut strikes an excellent balance between thermal retention and maintaining a proper manual grip.
