Pretty cool gloves. Every now and then my hooks get caught in them, so I don't foresee these holding up forever, but I like them enough to buy them every year or so. Honestly, I think ANY gloves intended for the purpose of fishing would fall apart after a while because you're touching fins, gill plates, possibly teeth, abrasive line, hooks, etc, that are all going to shred them, it's just going to take a while. If you're serious about protecting your skin, you probably will just buy more. Has nothing to do with the quality of the gloves, they seem well-made, it's just the nature of how they are going to be used.
I wish they had a cool color scheme, such as camp or something, but these gray gloves pretty much go with anything and they don't get too in the way when I'm fishing. They will absolutely not keep you warm at all, because they're made of...I think nylon? Anyway, it's not a material that offers much warmth, and especially not after they get wet (because they will get wet, since you're fishing). Once they're wet, they actually keep your hands very cool, which would be great during summer months when it's very hot out. During the spring and fall, I wear a fingerless fleece set of gloves and it's thick enough it probably is protecting me from most UV rays, and keeping me warm at the same time. So, all in all, these gloves are well made, but you may have to replace them eventually anyway because nothing lasts forever, and don't wear them when it's cold out unless you want your fingers to go numb. They will be very comfortable on a hot day.
