Edelrid Work Glove Open Fingerless Gloves

Edelrid Work Glove Open Fingerless Gloves

The Edelrid Work Glove Open Fingerless Gloves gives you a leather palm and bare fingertips in the same glove. You get protection where the rope runs and feel where you tie knots. The back is a four-way stretch polyester and elastane panel.

Features and Benefits

The open fingertip cut is the whole argument for this style. A closed glove protects better but turns knot work and gate operation into guesswork. Most people end up taking gloves off at the worst moment. Leaving the tips exposed keeps the glove on your hand all session.

Additionally, the leather palm takes the abrasion. Lowering a partner, running a rappel or handling a static line all put rope across the same patch of skin, and leather handles that far better than synthetic fabric of the same thickness.

Moreover, a pull-off loop on the forefinger and a pull tab at the wrist make the gloves quick to get on and off, and the tab doubles as a hang point on a carabiner. An elasticated wristband with a hook and loop strap sets the closure.

Product-Specific Use Cases

Rope handling in Gulf heat means sweaty hands, and a glove that vents through the back panel beats one that traps it. Use them belaying and lowering at the crags around Wadi Bih and Hatta, on rappel in the east coast wadis, and for rope access training where you are on a line all day.
