Question Dry Gloves

Ive been thinking of shelling out for a pair of dry gloves and cannot make my mind up.

My dry suit has neoprene cuff (ND Divemaster)

To which im getting conflicting answers so could the knowledge of YDers tell me the truth.

Ring locks system Good or Bad.

Will they work with Neo cuffs

Big Blue Gloves with latex seals

Will they work with Neo cuffs

ND do their own version of the Rolock system .2 friends of mine have them fitted to the neoprene over cuffs on their ND Cortex drysuits & swear by them .

I'd avoid latex seals.

Firstly its easy to get the first glove on but very hard to get the second glove on properly and the seal flat etc. The result is normally 1 dry hand 1 wet hand.

Also you wont be able to equalise with the pressure in your suit and below 20m or so with mine the squeeze is quite uncomfortable.

Id go for ring systems.

Or a pair of Marigolds with thin fleecy undergloves. I've used them to 40m. Brilliant. Warm. Easy to get on. Cheap. Utterly impossible to get off without help.

Woz how do you seal the marigolds
under your seal or over


if its over does it not leak


Also which ones as the company I work for have accounts with them for P.P.E so is should be able to get a few pairs

Trick is not to get any creases in the glove.
