Buff Angler Gloves

Anglers soak up
serious sun.

They should be serious about sun protection.

Hands can be difficult
to protect from the ultraviolet rays.

Suntan lotion on the hands can end up rubbed onto the line, lures or bait, scaring
fish away.

So anglers must
avoid lotion on
the hands.

Yet hands are almost always exposed to the sun on a fishing trip.


The Pro Series Fighting Work Glove,
meant for for big-game fishing or
poling a boat or paddling.

A pair of sun-protecting gloves made for fishing is an answer.

Buff’s Angler Gloves fit the bill.

The gloves come in two models: the Fighting Work Glove, a heavier one meant for fishing for big game, poling a boat or paddling; and the Angler Glove, a lighter one meant for smaller game or fly fishing.

They’re both built
for angling, featuring aspects like: a light weight; reinforcement in important places such as the palm and the
line-stripping fingers;
an ergonomic fit; cut-off tips on some fingers; and a synthetic suede that holds up to wet conditions and
dries quickly.

They come in several colors and three sizes.

The gloves are rated with an Ultraviolet Protection Factor of 50+, the highest sun-blocking rating.

Buff Angler Gloves retail for $40 a pair.


The Pro Series Angler Glove,
meant for smaller game or fly fishing.

Now you can stop worrying about catching too much sun,
and concentrate on catching fish.
