They have a textured surface made for gripping round stuff like fishing rods --or paddles. And the newer models have a Velcro strap for cinching up around the end of your dry top sleeves. What's nice is that they keep your hands warm even when they're soaking wet. They're NOT, however, "dry gloves." The seams let water through, although it's not a torrent. I thought they were fat and stiff feeling when I first tried them, now I like the extra padding on the paddle grip.
