So, I've owned several pairs of Metolius Fingerless gloves. I recently bought a pair of BD Stone gloves and loved the fit so much I was curious about the full finger protection. I decided to take the plunge and snapped up a pair. Initial thoughts are I am not sure how/why I waited to long. Full finger protection is really nice for about every task I wanted to wear gloves for. These are especially nice due to the lightweight burly fabric in between the leather. Get 'em. You are welcome.

These gloves are great! Great for fast repell and also for belaying. You can move every finger quite freely and they aren't super heavy like some gloves. The full finger gloves give you the best protection and is the best bang for the buck!
Picked up a pair of these and within a day of use there is no looking back. After buying the fingerless version and walking away impressed I've longed for a pair of full finger mitts. Warm hand, sore tips, manicures, multiple raps, you name it....any of these are reasons to move up to the Transition Glove.Save yourself (and your hands) the trouble and buy a pair quick. Chop Chop already.
