Glo Glov

Best Camping Gear Reviews is always looking for camping gear and outdoor gear to test and review. We were contacted by the manufacture Glo Glov and given some Glo Glovs to test. We determined Glo Glov to be an important piece of camping gear.

Glo Glov was started in 1991 by a former police officer's wife. She saw the need for better visibility when the officers were performing traffic control. As a result, Glo Glov was invented. Glo Glovs increase your chances of being seen, whether on the street or on a hike.

Currently Glo Glov has three models of gloves available. Those models are the original Glo Glov, Traffic Control Glo Glov, and the Sport Glo Glov. Best Camping Gear Reviews was given a pair of the Traffic Control Glo Glovs and Sport Glo Glovs. In this review, we will discuss the Sport Glo Glov. To see a review of the Traffic Control Glo Gloves check out our police gear website.

The Sport Glo Glov is made of a breathable, light weight nylon/spandex material. As a result of the material, the half fingered gloves can stretch from a medium size to XX large size. This allows you to wear the Sport Glo Glov by itself or over another pair of gloves. The Sport Glo Glov features a padded, sure grip palm that has a nice tacky feeling to it for better grip. On the knuckle side of the Sport Glo Glov there are four yellow reflective rectangles and a large yellow reflective triangle. On the palm side there is a red reflective rectangle.

When Best Camping Gear Reviews first got the Sport Glo Glovs, we immediately knew that they were going to be very useful as camping gear and hiking gear. The gloves have a nice feeling to them and are very lightweight. The grip on the palm is excellent.

In the short time, Best Camping Gear Reviews has had the Sport Glo Glovs, we have had the opportunity to try them out at night time. While the manufacture says you can see the gloves for up one mile away with a search light, we have only had the opportunity to view them from a couple blocks away. At that distance the gloves were clearly visible! There is no doubt in Best Camping Gear Reviews mind that the Sport Glo Glovs can be seen further away.

As we mentioned early, the gloves have an excellent grip pad. The pad is slightly textured for added grip. We had no problem while grabbing onto items, which included tree branches and even a Glock pistol. When we grabbed the tree branch, we had a secure grip on the branch and there was no slippery feeling.

Overall, Best Camping Gear Reviews likes the gloves. At about $20.00 they are well worth the price and should definitely be packed in your camping equipment every time you go camping!
