I don't think I've ever used a glove that wasn't lined... they're supposed to be warmer yeah?
I remember Seajay (RIP my friend
) saying he'd wear the 720's down to about 55F without liners (although it was a working dive).

The gloves that come with kubi are unlined and quite thin. I'm a "one with substrate" type of diver so I'm surprised they lasted this long. We don't have hard corals or pretty things to avoid touching so idgaf.I don't think I've ever used a glove that wasn't lined... they're supposed to be warmer yeah?

OP
I use the same gloves that originally came with my Kubis.
$4 a pair and they last me a loong time. I generally don't touch "stuff", though.

I think that the 720's I dive are just about perfect. I can dig around with them for oysters for at least a few months worth before they get a pin hole, and usually I can patch that (as long as I can find it).
They probably don't have as much dexterity, but I lose that with the thick liners I wear anyway.
If I come across a pair of yours I'll give them a shot.

I'm torn between the XL I bought and installed and going down to a large. I may get a pair when I drop off tanks Friday just to try them. At $11/pr it won't hurt my feelings to be wrong and have the back ups.
I used mine for about a year before they gave up.
If you're talking about the 720's they have a little bit of a break on period. After a few dives with new gloves they stretch some.
I've also wore them around the house with the liners to stretch them out (like a lunatic my wife says).

Wow, something in Switzerland that's cheaper than the US? No ******* way! I paid around $5 for mine
Ok you're way more man than I am. I gave up after like 5 or 10 minutes of cursing. If you have access to a 3D printer, I can't recommend the previously linked tool enough.

Amateurs! I start cursing early in the morning for late afternoon setup.
At that point I'm too tired to even get p*ssed off when it does not go as planned.

Showa 660s. Short fingers
I was sitting on the couch while my son played call of duty and waiting for the wife to get home. Glove o-ring inside, hold that in place and work the damn thing around while cursing because I wasn't nimble enough. I ended up grabbing a small clamp to hold the starting point in place and it was a breeze.
I don't know anyone with a 3D printer and all my other hobbies cost too much to add 1 more toy lol
