    Daniel Ross's review

    Some nice burly crack gloves. These are pretty thick, so they're nice for jamming wider cracks.

    My favorite crack glove! Sometimes can be make or break on a long crack climbing day in the rough rock in Joshua Tree.

    Durable, high-performance gloves for crack climbing. Sticky material, thumb coverage is a nice perk, and the design is slim, just like an old school tape glove.
