It is very easy to manufacture ‘heritage’ and ‘cool’ these days and at Countryside Ski & Climb we make it our business to seek out the genuine from the phoney as great ideas are worth spreading. Inspired by the courier bags the NYC cycle messengers used to use in the 70’s, Rob Honeycutt, a cycle messenger himself in 1989 San Francisco, took the leap to start manufacturing his own bags in a backstreet garage.
Patagonia - Sun Gloves
Fingerless gloves made of saltwater-tested, recycled polyester with 30-UPF sun protection.
Take a look at an old flats guide's hands and you'll get a pretty good idea of why we made these. Of course, there's always sunscreen, but it tends to make slippery work of casting and line control, and who wants coconut-scented flies, anyway? The solution is a light, comfortable, fingerless glove made from quick-drying, 30-UPF 84% all-recycled polyester/16% spandex fabric.
The webbed-finger design and out-of-the-way seam placement make Sun Gloves easy to wear and easy to slip on and off. Your hands will thank you. Recyclable through the Common Threads Recycling Program.
Features:
- Glove fabric is made of a recycled polyester/spandex blend with 30-UPF sun protection
- Cut-out palm design for secure rod grip and greater comfort
- Webbed finger design for secure, comfortable fit and easy on/off
- Seams placed away from high wear areas
