Measurement of the fit size of rowing gloves is very crucial; otherwise, you will spend money on something that is not even going to perform the intended function of saving you from the issues mentioned previously.

Finn’s review: Over the last two weeks I’ve been trying out the Ice gloves. One of the main reasons I applied was that I was curious to see how they compare to pogies. I found that the fit was very good but it was fairly bulky, this made it very hard for me to grip the sweep handle with my outside hand and it was constantly slipping. The material also pinched along the finger and was fairly uncomfortable. With today’s piece of writing, I am going to focus on whether you need to wear gloves while rowing or not.

If you don’t want to wear a hat, that’s fine too. A technical top (or tech top) is rather like a tight t-shirt and will keep you warm and dry as they are generally made from breathable fabric. Often you will see rowers using this combination with an all in one. A Splash-top –If it’s foggy or raining, you’ll be really happy that you have a splash-top.

The right size and quality pair of gloves will prevent your hands from blisters (also known as friction blisters).Wearing the right clothing will help give you a head start so you don’t have to suffer from painful butt blisters or maybe even “new rower” jokes. and boy did I need them for the last two days! As a sweep oarsman, my hands were all cut up, and was finding it difficult to control the blades. I was honestly worried about using them in a scull (as a scrappy novice in that boat!), but after a few duff strokes I did get used to them.
