I buy these glove hope to use they in cold weather condition , for handle tool and equipment . these be a good fit and closer to the skin , but they do not keep the water out . what be the use of a glove if it get wet ? I be obviously not gonna be use a glove as a decoration on my hand , it be mean to shield my hand from external environment , be it water , fire or cold temperature . and since it rain frequently here in New york , whenever i wish to wear these glove outside , they immediately get soak by water render these glove useless .
