Hey all! I've been vegan for a few months now, and I was recently invited to going climbing and rappelling with some good friends. I absolutely love to climb, but I haven't gone since I switched to a kinder life. I would like to purchase a pair of vegan gloves and give my leather ones away, but I can't find climbing gloves without any leather parts--these gloves need to be resistant to the heat and friction of rope moving at fast speeds across the palm, thumb, and forefinger and are usually reenforced with leather along those areas. Does anyone have any suggestions? Are there any climbers out there?
