Smokefoot has some. That is where I got mine. I think Souithern Prospector has them too. They are around 35.00 but worth it! Will keep hands and arms warm.

The ones I'm talking about have a cotton linning for warmth and go up to arm pits. They also have an elastic band that rides the neck. When off they hang around neck. Very nice but a little pricy. Many of us have them and worth the money. I was going the cheaper rought and James talked me out of it. Glad he did.

Call SmokeFoot (Smookefoot Link)and ask for Pete, Owner, or Trip. I have two pair of them.. You may also want to wear long sleeves but wear wool in case you swamp the gloves. Which happens all of the time and is the reason I won two pair of them. Lavacore has some very nice insulated clothing. They have some shirts, vest with hoods and long sleeves. They have a full suit I would love to have but I am going with the two piece set. Wish I had wore the socks yesterday after I got swamped. SEAL socks work great too. Keeps your feet dry and warm even if your boots or waders get swamped. Amazon linkleisurrepro link Other online sites sell it but I highly suggest you find a local dealer and go try it on first. I purchased mine from a local dive shop. They had a black Friday sale, purchase one piece and get the socks for free. Told the wife yesterday when I left for SC that I was forgetting something and it was my SEAL socks. Also forgot pants. Got swamped. Glad it was as warm as it was yesterday... When you guys get tired of playing in Uwaharrie let me know... Lets break out the dredges...  We can long arm it till it gets warmer... I hear some of the dredges are using the propane heaters and are staying very warm... Jerry Jerry |
