Are these gloves good for sailing a hobie cat?

These gloves are waterproof and are made of tough material that I've lifted weights in them and they are still like new. Also, the durability is great and I recommend these for any water sport where you need a comfortable grip.

They are very flexible so I'm not sure they would provide enough protection. The material is much like a thick stretchy winter glove

i use it on my husband as a massager, but in the past when i had a cat i used to peel matted hair off this kind of glove.

I think they must run a little small. I bought a small for my 6-1/2 pound cat and needed to return. Ended up with a medium.

yes, I think so, but the glove is designed to use in deep water, I use them to take care of my water lily

If they're a S/M then it would probably be best to go with an M. You don't want the harness to fit too tightly or the cat won't be able to move properly or have ease of breathing.

These gloves will definitely keep you hands dry and warm. If you need to take your gloves on and off I would not recommend these. They are a snug fit which they are suppose to be- they would not be easy to take on and off. Also, if you need to have total movement during lobster fishing these gloves are a bit thick to give your fingers free movement- a bit stiff. I use them to feed and water horses in the winter months, they work well for that purpose.

That shouldn't be a problem, they were a snug fit on my skinny cat. They attach w/Velcro at the waist so a small tail shouldn't be an issue.

I don't know the answer for sure, but since they are nitrile gloves, I would think not. If I had had these gloves at the time I owned a salt-water reef aquarium, I most certainly would have used them.

I guess they would be, they are basically super glued to the cats nails and come off after the nails shed. But cats clean themselves so I am not sure why you are bathing him so often that you would need these. Good luck!

I disagree with the previous answer: they are not very warm... they are somewhat warm. They dexterity is there but the intense grip of the rubber would make diminutive tasks difficult. I will be adding thin cotton glove liners to mine this year to provide a boost to insulation. Since I ride a bike with them, I don't have to worry about the added loss in dexterity. Theses gloves are not effective below 30F degrees.

They should prove to be OK with those items, so long as they are not too small in size. The fingertips have a better feel than most gloves with this quality of warmth do. The index fingers on the gloves have a small patch of leather-ish fabric that may or may not serve a purpose, depending on use. I have used them in EMS (ambulance patient care) and have had no problems with tearing surgical tape, attaching straps and patient securing gear, and operated other medical devices with them on. Obviously, they are going to pose a barrier problem of some sorts, but overall, I think they are better than most (of similar quality) in fingertip feel and comfort. Hope that helps!

Probably not. It's just sturdy rubber. If your cats claws make it to the back of your hand you are screwed. And you really give your cat a bath?

my cats have never tried to chew on them. A good fit is a must..if you adjust the collar to where you can slip one finger under it, it should be ok. I always end up cutting some off for a better fit. You don't want it loose. I have not used on a kitten however.

I would recommend looking for a Gore-Tex glove for the situation you are asking about. They will be truly water proof and more durable.

They should work just fine, they are water proof as advertised. They are also made for tough work, the fingers have leather protecting from ware n tear and outer is a stretch material for easy movement. They are suppose to keep hands warm unfortunately like all gloves fingers will get cold!!

these are tough leather, Unless an alligator grabs you I would say no..dog bites, I don't believe so. these gloves are thick.
