I'm wondering if anyone here ever used these golves.

Drygloves with Seal - Dive Right in Scuba

I'm looking for a cheap way to use dry gloves on my whites fusion suit.
I normally only use 5mm gloves but i will be doing ice diving this winter and I'm pretty sure that 5mm won't cut it.

I don't want to put a permanant system in place either.

any other recommendation?
 
Make those yourself, if you want cheaper gloves.

I have a pair. They work, but can be tricky to don. If I were to buy them again I would request they start with gloves that have the liner attached, rather than a separate liner.

that's the proper way to don them I assume.
thanx for the tip on the linner.
Do you put them on top of your drysuit seal ?
 
Yes, over the top of your seal. I use them. They work.
 
tried them, wasn't overly happy. Could give them a try again, but they are now "emergency" spares.

Went with this:

Si Tech Rubber Pullover Dry Glove Rings | Dive Right In Scuba - Plainfield, IL - Dive Right in Scuba
Pullover Rubber Gloves for Dry Glove System - Dive Right in Scuba
DRIS Dive Gear Fleece Dry Glove Liner | Dive Right In Scuba - Plainfield, IL - Dive Right in Scuba

Initial expense was up there, but @ $14 for new gloves, I'm okay with it....
 
Do you put them on top of your drysuit seal ?

Yes. The first one's easy, the second is trickier 'cause you're wearing the glove and it's harder to move the seal of the second glove into position. Having loose liners just complicates this. I have an older pair I loved, with an attached liner, but the seals rotted long ago.

those pullover ring look fairly easy. was it hard to put on your suit?
