Looking for a glove that works with drysuit

[Kennyscot]

I have Bare drysuit. The gloves that I have don't work with the Bare latex cuff. Looking for a cold water glove. Any suggestions??

What kind of gloves do you have now? And when you say the gloves don't work, what does that mean? Need some details before making any suggestions, there are several ways to go with gloves: wet, dry, five finger, mitts.

"Waterproof" 5mm zippered. My gloves are to long to fit under the cuff and to small to go over the cuff. they would have to be about double diameter to go over and about 4 inches shorter to fit in front of.

I've been using the Diving Concept dryglove rings along with $6.00 per pair blue smurf gloves for a few years. They work great.

Try these dry gloves https://www.divetank.com/gear/listproducts.php?categoryid=51.
My wife and I both have them and we use Bare dry suits.

I have a BARE XCD2 Tech drysuit and have been diving with BARE's 5mm Gauntlet gloves the past couple weekends. The water temperatures have been 39-46 degrees F and I tell ya', my fingers were quite cold.

The Duratex Dry Gloves from Henderson have caught my interest...any thoughts?

I just tried these. The have a neoprene seal, then you put your wrist seal over that, then another neoprene flap on the glove goes over your seal. My hands were dry and a LOT warmer than with my 5mm Scuba Pro gloves. They were about $40 from Joel's store.

I have to admit that these look very interesting to me. And the price is right. Seems too good to be true. Easy to use? Anyone see any potential problems with this concept?

Not much specific info on the web page.

I dove today with my deep sea 6mm gloves in 43 degrees and my fingers were bricks after 20 minutes! Had my dry suit on so the rest of me was fine but man, my hands! BBBRRR! I like my gloves but below 50 degrees and they aren't cutting it.

Easy to use? For the most part, about as time consuming as dry gloves to don and doff because dealing with the seals, but harder than wet gloves. Potential problems? Yeah, go easy when pulling on the "flap," otherwise they'll tear and leak through the neoprene.

Thanks for the input dannobee. I will have to get a closer look at these!

Correction, I think my deep sea 5 finger gloves are 5 mm, not 6mm.

I also just checked out some Bare 7mm, 3 finger mitts. Anyone think that mitts are warmer? I would imagine that they are since you would have skin contact and plus the two mm thickness increase from my 5mm gloves now should increase one's dive by about ten minutes, lol??? I don't really see a lot of divers using mitts around me. You think people are scared of loosing a little dexterity?

I started using mitts for skiing this year and had to take them off because my hands were sweating too much. I would like to have that problem while diving!

BTW, Joel's store?
