Closure location Closure locationInside or OutsideCrack gloves close around the wrist typically with a velcro-like strap which lays either on the inside of the wrist (the palm side) or the outside of the wrist (the back of the hand). Most gloves close on the inside of the wrist where the closure is more protected from coming undone while jamming, though some manufacturers choose to close on the back for a lower profile closure that is more comfortable against the softer inner arm. |
Outside wrist |
Thumb CoverageThumb CoverageYes/No/Partial
Crack gloves are made with different types of cracks and rock in mind. Some manufacturers have begun building greater thumb protection into their designs which can be beneficial if you are climbing wider cracks where fist-jamming is common. We consider thumb coverage to completely cover the knuckle and at least part of the first digit of the thumb. If only part of the knuckle is covered it is considered partial. | Yes, mostly or totally covers thumb knuckle |
FeaturesFeaturesStrap CoverageStrap coverage refers to the wrist closure strap having a built-in place to stow once it is closed. This feature is included on some gloves to help avoid the strap being opened when you don’t want it to be.

| Sizing | XS
15.5 - 17.5 cm / 6.1 - 6.9" S 17.5 - 19.5 cm / 6.9 - 7.7" M
19.5 - 21.5 cm / 7.7 - 8.5" L 21.5 - 23.5 cm / 8.5 - 9.3" XL
23.5 - 25.5 cm / 9.3 - 10" WeighMyRack Tips: Accurate Sizing to slightly big. Can be purposely worn undersized to help fit in thinner jams, though might be uncomfortably short for long hands. Thumb loop and finger loops are a little above average size to accommodate beefier fingers and thumbs, so can feel a little large for thinner hands, though performance doesn't seem to be too affected. If you're worried about having thin fingers, size down. |
MaterialGlove MaterialsMain GloveThis refers to the material or materials that make up the main body of a crack glove. This is usually either a form of natural or synthetic suede, synthetic material or combination of both. This may include the materials used to make holes or loops for fingers but should not be confused with the Backing material that is added on the back of the glove for contact with the rock.
BackingThis is the material that crack glove manufacturers adhere to the back of the glove to add friction and padding between your hand and the rock. This is usually some form of rubber or synthetic rubber compound and can be in very thin to relatively thick, although not all crack gloves have backing material. | Main Glove: 60% Polyamid, 30% Syntetic rubber, 10% Polyester
Backing: CAT 1.5 rubber |

| WeighMyRack Says | Good for medium to wide hands and better for narrow fists than previous models. Decent to good on most rock types, especially sandstone. Best overall balanced glove from Ocún yet. The new thumb coverage is the best we've tried and includes a grab-flap of leather for easier removal without rolling up or risk of the loop tearing. The stretchy material on the wrist closure makes on/off a breeze and the most comfortable of all the models currently available. The strap has been redesigned to simply wrap and tuck, so there is no more potential of tearing the closure loop as with previous models. If you're on the smaller end of sizing, downsizing is a good bet, especially for thin fingers, as the loops are pretty roomy and can feel floppy for shorter hands. Like other models, they can suffer from sharp edges stabbing through flexible cutouts in the backing rubber, so be aware of jams with craggy edges and crystals. |
