Kevlar® is an amazing fabric that offers the best abrasion resistance currently practical for diving gloves, but many
people who have tried Kevlar® palmed gloves have been disappointed with the stiffness and lack of stretch. The
gloves simply were not very comfortable and it was difficult to move the fingers. On top of that, the palms were fairly
slippery. How often have you had trouble hanging onto your dive camera or grasping a knife or dive light?
So when the designer of our gloves was looking for armored palm material he was especially pleased to find an

High Tide PRO PLUS 5.0 mm gloves for $69.95 include these features:

- Full length Armortex® palm
- Extra wide, double sewn, elastic strap with hook and loop closure for snugging down over cuffs
- Available in sizes from XS to 2XL
PLUS gloves durable, but the gripping area will let you hang onto

Many gloves stop their armored palm fabric around the perimeter of

This seam is a weak area which often tears out, but High Tide
gloves run the armored palm fabric completely down to the bottom
of the cuff, eliminating that seam and the weak point. We’ve never,
not once, had a pair of our gloves returned to us that have somehow
been torn in that area.
