The XCEL Comp Anti Gloves are built for surfers who need a little warmth but refuse to deal with the grip loss and reduced feel that traditional neoprene gloves bring. Ultra-thin, ultra-light — designed to feel like you're barely wearing gloves at all.

• "Anti" concept design — engineered specifically for surfers who hate wearing gloves; maximizes sensitivity and feel while still providing thermal protection
• Ultra-thin and lightweight neoprene — minimal material between your hands and the board so grip and feel stay intact
• Textured palm — textured grip surface maintains traction on rails and leash pull even in cold, wet conditions
• Durable closed-cell neoprene — resists water absorption to maintain insulation throughout the session
• Ideal water temp: 54–65°F / 12–18°C — the right choice for cool but not truly cold water; step up to 3mm gloves below 54°F
• Unisex sizing — available in L; refer to XCEL's glove size chart for hand circumference measurements

The tradeoff with warmth gloves is usually feel — the XCEL Anti eliminates that tradeoff. Thin enough to feel your board, textured enough to grip the rails, and warm enough to stop that deep ache you get in cold fingers after 30 minutes. Pair with XCEL Comp Split Toe booties for a complete cold-water accessories setup.

Sizing: Gloves should fit snugly — a loose glove moves around and reduces sensitivity. Measure your hand circumference at the widest point and compare to XCEL's glove size chart. If between sizes, size down for a better seal.

Care: Rinse thoroughly inside and out in fresh water after every session. Hang to dry. Do not machine wash, tumble dry, or store damp.
