Rowing gloves par excellence, and The Crew Stop provides customer service of the highest quality. I tried so many different gloves, and the only ones that worked were a pair of utility gloves, but they broke down after a few months. I finally ordered a pair of Paddlers (size M) after a shortage ended. I wish I ordered them a year ago, as they have conferred protection from blistering, calluses, and paresthesias in my hands. After about a week of use, the blue silicon started peeling. I wasn’t sure if it was a sizing issue or a defect, so I contacted TCS to inquire. It appeared to be a rare defect, so TCS made the exchange a breeze, and allowed me to go up to a L size. The most difficult part of the exchange was having to give up the gloves for rowing, but I received the new pair the same day I dropped the defective pair in the mail. My hands are thanking me for these gloves.

I am so glad I found these gloves. I like wearing gloves but never found a pair that were comfortable until now. The Paddlers are light and comfortable I don't even know I'm wearing them. I'm 58 and row my boat six miles daily anything to make the experience better is a plus. I also bought my Wife a pair for the rowing machine at the gym. I highly recommend these gloves.

I spent the past year training for an 80 mile endurance SUP event. One of the worst feelings on a paddleboard is when your lower hand slips down the shaft of the paddle. You lose all the power and effectiveness of the stroke, you lose your rhythm, and depending on water conditions, you could easily lose your balance and fall in. A common way to combat that is to tape or wax the paddle shaft. Problem is, that stuff can come off and with tape, if it rolls, it can cause much worse blistering than if the shaft was left clean. And high end paddles cost hundreds of dollars these days. I don't want glue or other gunk stuck to my paddle! The Crew Stop's Paddler's have been a perfect solution. Well designed with solid construction - no matter the conditions or how sweaty I am, I never lose grip on the paddle, I maintain full feel and connection with the paddle, and zero blisters. Even on my 80 mile paddle! If you SUP, get these. You'll be happy you did!

I bought these gloves to use on my C2. I have found them to be very comfortable and have allowed me to become a better rower due to the improved grip. My hands stay cool which allows for the improved grip over the course of the entire rowing session. I like having the extended finger tips and pinky finger cover of the Paddler model. This is a case in which you definitely get what you pay for. The cheaper gloves out there do not compare. Highly recommend!!

Ba-bam! These gloves are awesome. I’ve gone through a ton of batting gloves on my Concept2 RowErg and SkiErg, frustrated at the accumulation of sweat and subsequent slippery grip making for twice the work on long training pieces in prep for an ultra. I’ve used high-powered fans to try to mitigate the pace my gloves get soaked with sweat (humid Florida) but never really solving the problems. I thought I’d give the Paddlers a try and wish that I’d done so earlier. Just crushed a HM with ZERO drama. Buying another pair.

I started using the Crewstop Scullers just over 2 years ago. I row on a Concept 2 indoor rower and these were truly lifesavers! After a couple years they finally needed replacement so I ordered my wife and me each a pair of the new paddlers. Mine didn't fit so I needed to exchange. I got my replacements before I could even ship mine back! The new ones fit perfectly and perform just as well.The customer service at Crewstop is top notch. A few others at our gym are considering Crewstop gloves and I really believe they will be as happy as we are.Thanks to all at Crewstop for truly being there for your customers!!Greg

I have an indoor water rower and I use this to keep fit. Being a guitarist I need to keep my hands free from damage so quickly found myself using gloves for rowing very quickly. I have 2 pairs of gloves from The Crew Stop, one pair of the original Skullers which worked great for me when I paired them with tape on the digits that do not have fingers on these gloves. The newer Paddle Gloves however, without exaggeration, can only be described as perfect. One of the major problems I have is talking myself out of exercising. The easier to make an excuse, the more likely I'll skip a session. These gloves give me zero excuses, they are on my hands in seconds, I don't need tape, they provide excellent grip, they fit perfectly due to the elastic nature of the material and the velcro fastening system. Coupled with the extra distance The Crew Stop went to get these delivered to me at a reasonable price during the pandemic I honestly cannot thank them or recommend them enough.

These gloves are perfect for indoor rowing. They are the only gloves out there designed for rowing and make my indoor rowing working much more pleasurable. Before purchasing I was using some old weightlifting gloves and while they protected my hands from calluses they didn’t provide much comfort otherwise. The paddling gloves are lightweight and comfortable. I highly recommended them to anyone looking to enhance their rowing workout and have already told everyone I know who rows about them.Make sure to order large enough gloves, I thought a large would fit but it was too tight around the fingers so I exchanged for an XL (very easily with their awesome customer service)!

loved the paddle gloves from The Crew Stop! i have a mild form of ehler-danlos syndrome, and these gloves have allowed me to row indoors during the pandemic without having blisters. when there was a slight problem with one of the gloves, they responded so quickly and shipped a replacement at no charge. cannot thank them enough for allowing me to stay healthy during this crazy year!

The gloves fit great. I use them for rowing not paddling, though, since the skulling gloves are on back order. The plastic grip strips tore off by the fourth practice. They are meant for light paddling as stated in the description before purchase. Even so, they are still useful until I can replace my skulling gloves. I’m glad I have them for interim use. I give them 4 stars for what I am using them for but a paddler would probably be quite happy with them

I use these gloves for indoor rowing on my C2. This is my second pair of Crew Stop gloves - the first pair were scullers, they worked great and lasted almost 2 years. Then I upgraded to paddlers, and they are great as well, except the velcro quickly started coming undone half way through my workout! This is disappointing, and now I have to put rubber bands on my wrists to keep the gloves on. Didn't have this problem with the scullers, so I'm not sure if paddlers use different velcro material. Still, these gloves are superior to all other gloves on the market, mainly due to extended finger coverage and ventilation.

The gloves were a game changer for me, particularly on hot summer days when my hands were sweaty. Only issue is that the velcro on the wrist closure has not been durable. Will have to replace the gloves sooner than expected.
