Anyway, i know its a bit of Taboo, and the "elite" would look down their nose at this.... but I’m going to say it anyway.

Can anyone recommend a belay glove brand to me? *cringe*

before anyone goes on the attack, i have methods to my madness.. 1.. I’m a girl, 2.. i have a new rope, 3.. I'm a newbie at lead belay (so i have a penchant for holding the rope too tight), 4.. my partner is heavier than me, and finally 5.. i sort of value the skin on my hands.

I have had a look around, and everything i have found is heavy and very gardening glove-esque... i need something a little more like a second skin, so i can still feel the rope, but not burn quite so readily, and look pretty, or at least not look conspicuous.. Perhaps a kanga-leather golf glove? i don’t want anything too pricey, as I’ll probably ditch it when i get more experience under my belt :/
