I've just lost a pair of O3 3-finger mitts (in Dale, Milford Haven if anyone finds them...).

They were FAR better than my old 5mm gloves, my hands were warm during dives and i could do everything i could with normal gloves. Would highly recommend them.

Also, I have a set of Waterproof 5mm 5 finger gloves, which I use when it's not so cold. These are lovely and warm and flexible too.

I do like the Waterproof range. They're turning out a lot of good products.

Sorry to rake this up again, I have some waterproof 3mm gloves, and find they are an absolute pig to zip up when wearing a drysuit. My scuba pro 5mm are fine to fasten, but I just can't easily fasten the waterproofs. So much so I have taken to wearing some thin 2mm reef type gloves.

any tips on how to get the things to fasten, I use the petrol station gloves so they go on easy enough, but just can't do the zip up.

Those flexible gloves from ND - available in 2mm and 5mm - they're pretty good.

The go on good and feel comfortable, but don't last at all IMO.
