Peanut-butter and Jam Gloves

So close to perfect

These gloves are awesome!! They don't move around and have excellent protection all over your hand. The 1 piece rubber backing is really nice. So far I've put about 40 pitches on them in the valley the last week and they've held up super well EXCEPT that the elastic thumb loop pretty much gave out after about 6 pitches of climbing on my first day using them. Would love it if they came with a bit longer velcro around the wrist too... Other than those two small things, they're really great and fit my hands well! I sized down.

Good Gloves, Annoying Thumb Stretch

I’ve used these crack gloves on 7 outings across 21 climbs, including multipitches in Red Rocks like Dark Shadow and Birdland, plus single pitch days in Joshua Tree, Holcomb Valley Pinnacles, and Big Bear. Some of the materials have been solid. The rubber is holding up really well with barely any noticeable wear. I usually wear a large, but I downsized to a medium since crack gloves tend to stretch, and the fit has been snug and secure. My one real issue is the thumb. The elastic stretched out pretty quickly and after about 7 outings it got loose enough to be annoying while climbing. I ended up folding and sewing it just to get the fit back. What’s frustrating is that the rest of the glove, especially the fingers, is holding up great. I just wish they used that same material on the thumb. Overall they perform well, but the thumb design is definitely the weak spot.

Perfection

I work for Seneca Rocks Mountain Guides and these jammers are the MVP of preserving the skin on the backside of my mitts. So much tougher than the Black Diamond ones I'd regularly wear out.
