I am on a mission to find the perfect gloves for outdoor swiming. Here I try a pair of Lomo Tri-X gloves which I bought as they seem a reasonable price. This is not a paid review, it is my honest opinion as it happened. I tested the gloves for 20-30 minutes twice. Once in the sea using front crawl and breast stroke, and the second time in a river for a swoosh during which I swam side stroke and breast stroke.
