Glacier Glove Pro Angler Gloves Review

Our Verdict: Glacier Glove Pro Angler Gloves

A neoprene slit-finger glove that balances warmth with bare-finger access for casting and knots.

A 2mm neoprene glove with a slit index finger and thumb, so you poke those two digits out for knots while the rest stays sealed.

So, is it any good?

Mid-price neoprene glove from a respected fishing brand.

Pre-curved fingers and fleece lining add value over a plain neoprene glove.

The slit thumb and finger let me tie without stripping the glove, but cold sneaks into those two tips fast.

Value for Money	Rating
Best in test	10/10
Glacier Glove Pro Angler Gloves	8/10
Category average	8.4/10
Worst in test	6/10

Warmth & Comfort

Warmth & Comfort	Rating
Best in test	10/10
Glacier Glove Pro Angler Gloves	7/10
Category average	6.9/10
Worst in test	4/10

Water Resistance

The neoprene body is waterproof, but the finger slits are open, so it is not fully sealed.

Water resistant in the round because the slits let water in at the tips.

Better sealed than fabric gloves, less sealed than the full Ice Bay.

Water Resistance	Rating
Best in test	10/10
Glacier Glove Pro Angler Gloves	6/10
