    Gloves

    I cannot believe the amount of money I have just paid for a pair of drygloves. Nordic Blues.

    I have the Polar Bears ring system on my suit. Does anybody know of gloves that work with it that are less than fifty bloody quid a go?

    No sadly not. The ring system is not the same as a rolock and it means the Showa 660's whick water through the lining of the glove and flood your suit slowly.

    I need something like a Nordic Blue which is basically a Showa with a latex seal glued on it.

    I got a pair of the Hydrotech blue marigolds with a seal for £25, can't remember here. I just trawled through the links on Google until I found the cheapest.

    Or just buy a pair of Showas and glue on a seal. Roll of bog roll up the glove, glue on the seal, pull the centre out the bog roll and pull it all through the seal opening. I've done that in the past.

    Cheers,

    Thanks Stuart, it may well come to that. I am still hoping someone out there has a solution that does not involve my engineering prowess though.
