Anyone tried the Omer Spider or the Salvimar HT Weld gloves and socks?

[Gab]

Hi all,

I am looking at buying either the Omer Spider or the Salvimar HT Weld gloves and socks. Has anyone tried either? I am looking at getting 3mm. I can't find any reviews on the Omer.

I wonder about seamed vs non-seamed. I also wonder which is stretchier and which has the best protection/reinforcement (I know neither will be as strong as Amara or Kevlar) at the palms, fingers and soles.

Looking forward to hearing from you,
Gabriel

Hi,
I have a pair of the Omer spider gloves in 3mm that I have used this season. They er nice, flexible and provide a good grip.
But they are (in my opinion) not strong and long lasting enough for my kind of use.

Hi Jegwan, thanks, that is what I needed to know. I am now looking at Beuchat Marlin 3mm socks and gloves, they look robust and well made. I am having a hard time finding reviews, like for all the gloves and socks I have looked at .
