AFTCO HARDWARE Release Gloves: Master the Fight with Unrivaled Grip and Protection

Dominate the cockpit and handle the most powerful game fish with confidence with the AFTCO HARDWARE Release Gloves. Engineered specifically for the demanding world of big game fishing, these gloves are the ultimate tool for leadering, billing, and managing heavy tackle. When the fight is on the line, the Release Gloves provide the critical connection and protection you need to bring your trophy catch boatside safely and efficiently. Designed in collaboration with the legendary Captain Peter B. Wright, these gloves are tested and proven in the most challenging saltwater environments, making them an essential piece of gear for any serious angler or deckhand.

Experience a new level of control with the glove´s primary benefit: an incredibly secure grip. The palm is equipped with a special Tacky Diamond-Grip material that locks onto monofilament or fluorocarbon leaders, even when wet, drastically reducing slippage and giving you the leverage to control a thrashing fish. This superior grip translates directly to increased safety, preventing painful line cuts and burns while ensuring you can manage the leader with precision.

Key Benefits:

* Unmatched Leader Control: The tacky, high-friction palm provides an ironclad grip on fishing lines, giving you the power to leader big marlin, tuna, and other pelagic species without fear of slippage.
* Superior Hand Protection: Built for durability, these gloves shield your hands from the hazards of heavy-duty fishing, including line cuts, abrasion from bills and fins, and general wear and tear from handling gear.
* All-Day Comfort and Breathability: The vented, foam-backed mesh on the back of the hand allows for maximum airflow, keeping your hands cool, dry, and comfortable during long, hot days on the water.
* Secure and Custom Fit: A robust, wrap-around neoprene strap with a secure Velcro closure ensures the glove stays firmly in place, preventing any twisting or shifting during critical moments of the fight.

The AFTCO Release Gloves are packed with technical features designed for peak performance. The palm is constructed from a tough PU synthetic leather and is double-stitched in critical areas to withstand season after season of abuse. For added durability and protection, the index finger and thumb are reinforced, guarding the areas most susceptible to wear. The combination of a flexible Spandura® back and the vented mesh ensures a perfect balance of protection, dexterity, and comfort. Whether you´re grabbing a swordfish bill, wiring a grander marlin, or simply need a reliable all-purpose fishing glove, the AFTCO HARDWARE Release Glove is the gold standard in performance and durability.
