This glove is extremely stiff when you first get it. I had to soften it up quite a bit before I could actually shoot with this glove. I am about 6', female, with big man hands. I read the reviews and I was first inclined to order the large, but decided to order the XL after reading some of the more detailed reviews about measurements. I'm happy I ordered the XL. I didn't need the gerth so much as the length. The length between the tip of my middle finger and my wrist is about 8". This fit very comfortably in that aspect. I do have to pull the wrist strap quite a bit to fit snug around my wrist, leaving a big tab of excess Velcro strap dangling. I love the thickness of this glove. I didn't get it soft enough last time I went to the range and I struggled with shooting, and had to switch to a loaner glove that is much more thin. As a female I want delicate un-callused soft fingers and hands and for this reason I can appreciate the thickness of the gloves. I just need to work on making them more flexible without sacrificing my aim.

Plus this glove matches my arm guard: https://amzn.com/B0097RGBEG

The leather is way to thin, soft and there is no extra padding, so it's exactly like wearing a regular leather glove. It's OK for a few shots, but the string begins to cut into the fingers after 5 draws. For very, very light draw weight at around 20+ pounds it's OK, so it'll be fine for children and smaller women, but at draws over 30 pounds this glove will not do its job properly, not even close.

I am doing archery in my college and have bunch of gloves but this one is really good. Leather feels well and soft. I am using this one for LARP archery looks medieval and is really practical to use.

On my 50 lb recurve, my fingers hurt after about 60 shots. Glove arrives very stiff... which ends up being a good thing.... cause I've run about 300 shots through mine now, and it's a noticeable difference... wherein the glove is more COMFORTABLE... but less effective against the feel of the string. All in all... this is a cheap glove, and you get what you pay for. I'm giving this 5 stars cause I'm not one of the Amazon morons who buys one of the lowest priced products and then whines about how it doesn't perform flawlessly. Basically... if a new archer, like myself, wanted a cheap option, I WOULD recommend this. EXACTLY what I expected.

I'm an archery noob, so regard my review in that context. I purchased the Need glove based on reviews and aesthetics and am finding it to be an adequate glove with a few nitpicks. Let's start with those.

First up is sizing. I've got less than manly hands, so based on sizing info in the Amazon reviews, I purchased the large glove and feel like it might still be just a touch small. There's more tension on the strap than I'd like at draw. Which leads me to nitpick two.

Second is that when the strap draws tight, the fingers of the glove start to twist. This isn't an issue on some other gloves because the fingers are all one material. On the Neet, there's the leather for the finger contact and suede for the finger backs. When that starts to go askew, you notice it. It's a quick matter if readjusting the fingers, but it still irks me just a bit.

Third is that the leather fingers are quite stiff upon arrival. They start to break in after about 60 pulls. I'm sure that they'll get even softer over time.

I still like the look if the Neet glove, and it does the task. Plus, the price is nice. I'm giving it four stars for the overall value and the naturalistic aesthetic, but I wouldn't say it's the best glove out there.

Of course, I've only tried two, so I'm a bit of a poor judge.
