When you're out on the water, your hands are your most valuable tool—protect them with Gill's expertly designed Deckhand Gloves. These short-finger gloves combine functionality with comfort, making them perfect for days spent sailing, kayaking, or enjoying any paddle sport where you need both protection and dexterity.
What sets these gloves apart is their thoughtful construction. The double layer Amara reinforcement on the palm provides an excellent grip without absorbing or holding water, so your hands stay dry and comfortable even in wet conditions. The wraparound palm protection adds extra durability where you need it most, while the offset finger seams prevent irritation and chafing during long hours of use.
Gill understands that comfort matters when you're spending hours on the water. These gloves feature a pre-shaped construction that molds to your hand's natural contours, ensuring a fit that feels like a second skin. The reduced cuff length and rear volume adjustment mean you can customize the fit to your preference, whether you're wearing them alone or layering them under other gear.
With 50+ UV sun protection, these gloves shield your hands from harmful rays during those long summer sailing sessions. Their water-repellent nature makes them ideal for various water sports—from dinghy sailing to windsurfing and everything in between. The short-finger design gives you the tactile feedback you need for handling lines, rigging, and equipment while still providing essential protection.
Whether you're a seasoned sailor or just starting out, the Gill Deckhand Gloves offer the perfect balance of protection, grip, and comfort. They've earned their place as one of Gill's most popular styles for good reason—delivering reliable performance across a multitude of water activities.
