Inspired by the foot shape of grebes, one of the fastest swimming water birds, the Grebe Gloves are paddle gloves designed to make paddling faster and less fatiguing, allowing swimmers to increase their speed with less effort. Most webbed paddle gloves cause resistance on the upstroke, and don’t allow independent finger movement. The Grebe Gloves feature flexible lobes rather than webbing, providing extra power on the downstroke, but much less resistance on the upstroke. The Grebe Gloves make it easier to swim, paddle, and surf more efficiently with less exertion, as well as hold and grasp objects with the separated fingers. The Grebe Gloves are great for surfers looking to catch more waves, swimmers hoping to cover more distance, or anyone else hoping to find a way to swim or paddle faster.
