I can’t understand why Macwets command the price they do. 

I bought a pair when they first came out, and in dry warm weather they’re fine, but in cold wet weather they are worse than useless; neither waterproof nor warm. 
Mine are still in the drawer where I left them many years ago.

I couldn’t recommend them to anyone, there are much better and more practical gloves out there.

I use Macwets, SUMMER and winter. The mesh backed golf glove off the bay of plenty are around £20 a pair. I have 2 pair of summer gloves and as said the older pair, do have holes at some of the finger tips, caused by loading an auto. One of the 2 pair are genuine shooting gloves at around £30, the others are golf gloves at around £20, I am unable to see any difference between the two. As also said they are useless in cold wet weather, but I have yet to find a shooting glove that isn't. I use a pair of fingerless wool gloves, with a pull over mitt section for the fingers. They have suede palms and work well in wet, cold weather. At £8 a time I carry 4 pairs in my bag and change them throughout the day.  I think golf gloves are certainly the way to go though, I do have a couple of pairs of winter golf gloves that are fleece backed and synthetic leather palms.
