I think the 9016 is better than the 9013 because the coating material is thinner and more flexible(after 1 dive to break it in). For lobster hunting in tight holes, it can be really tough to wiggle your fingers back inside to get a grip on his head antenna knuckles. Sometimes he's in there so tight I can only get ahold of one knuckle and not both. The 9013 still has the excellent "grip vs slip" down the antenna barbs, but it's just a little stiffer thicker material. I can't find the 9016's instock at the any of the industrial / hospital safety supply websites in size large (just small & XXL) What ever you choose DON'T get the 9010 glossy-shiny thick coating gloves. It's so slippery and stiff and almost impossible to bug hunt or tiny photo button push with.

Thank you!!!
