Are these gloves good for catching in the rain?

Yes. The leather palm holds grip when wet better than plain synthetic palms. Dry it after use to keep the leather from stiffening.

Do they run true to size?

They follow Nike's standard glove sizing. Measure your hand across the palm and match it to the size chart; most players take their normal size.

No. The leather palm is grippy but not heavily tackified. Players who want maximum stick should look at tackified gloves instead.

They are designed for catching, so they suit receivers, tight ends and backs. Linemen usually prefer padded or heavier-duty gloves.

Wipe the palm clean after use and let the gloves air dry away from heat. Avoid machine washing, which dries out the leather.
