Based on a tip from some Seattle tech divers, these Ansell AlphaTec 87-118 gloves seem to work on the Santi SmartGloves system, and you can invert them to get a white glove showing on the outside. This is very handy for communicating underwater in dark environments, and maybe attracting curious octopus tentacles.

 

I am not sure what your point is. I doubt Santi make the gloves you linked to. I would bet my money that they purchase them direct from a manufacturer like SHOWA and specify that they want them unbranded or pay to have the Santi name printed on them. Here are some similar gloves made by SHOWA:

Santi gloves have no liner. I think they are made in a factory in Romania but I haven’t been able to get the exact model. There is no branding on the glove.

I would love to find which factory makes it because Santi are taking the **** with £20 for a pair of gloves.

Santi’s (and Kubi’s) thinner gloves are just AlphaTec 87-118
