The Backhander is a sun protection glove that protects the back of the hand, leaving the palm and fingers uncovered. This provides the perfect protection for your hands for racket sports, fishing, driving and any other time you want an uninterrupted grip while keeping the back of your hand sun safe.
When you look at the back of your hands in comparison to the rest of your arm, it typically shows more sun damage i.e. thinner skin, more age spots and wrinkles. This is because the hands are the most exposed area of the body. Using the Backhander sun glove will help keep your hands looking youthful.

Please note: we are no longer accepting orders to Australia. This is due to the US postal service suspending all shipments. We are told it's a temporary thing. For more information, please Google "USPS Australia"
Order Processing:
Most orders are shipped out same day or within 24 business hours from our warehouse in San Diego, California. We do not process orders on weekends.
In very rare cases, 1% of the time, we get customers that email us stating they have not received their order after it has been posted as "Delivered" by USPS/selected carrier. In most of these cases, the postal courier has placed the package inside the mailbox (rather than the front door) as many of our packages are in mailers and not boxes. If you have not received your package and it has been posted as delivered in tracking, please check your mailbox first, then contact the courier directly as only they can connect you with the courier that delivered or marked delivered the package. Unfortunately, we have no control of USPS or the package once it leaves us so if it has been marked as delivered we must take USPS's word that it has been. If you contact them we have never had an unresolved issue of it still being missing.
Standard Shipping Fees: $6.95 (Orders $0-$24.99) & $8.95 (Order $25- $99)
We find that most of our customers receive their purchases within 3-5 business days of processing. We ship standard orders using USPS First Class Mail.
Expedited Shipping-Cost/timeframe vary based on option selected at checkout
Expedited shipping cost varies for domestic US shipping destinations. Expedited shipping typically takes up to 4 business days to arrive. Please note if there is an unexpected delay we will contact you. Feel free to email us if you have questions about your specific order or need it by a certain day so we can best accommodate you.
Also, please note, with UPS 3-day select, it sometimes takes longer than 3 days for package to arrive. Same thing with UPS 2nd day air. Both shipping methods are widely used and popular. However, please be aware that we do not have control over the carrier shipping times.
International Customers: Varies
International Orders are welcomed. Shipping charges default to carrier charges which are presented during the checkout process. You will be prompted to select the most suitable option between all available carriers.
If you have any questions email service@sungrubbies.com.
If your country does not show as an option during shipping, please send us an email at service@sungrubbies.com and we will see if we can accommodate shipping to your destination. Not all destinations can be shipped to.
Lastly, please note that you will be responsible for any customs/VAT/duties, if applicable, at the time of delivery. In many cases, if a consumer refuses to pay the taxes associated with the transaction it gets rejected and sent back to us. We would not refund the shipping charges we incurred if a package is rejected for nonpayment of duties/taxes owed.
Customs, duties and other fees assessed by the destination country for an item can NOT be paid to the United States Postal Service® when the item is mailed. The recipient of the mailpiece is the only one who can pay the customs fees.
All items entering a foreign country are subject to customs inspection and assessment of duties, taxes, and fees in accordance with that country's national laws (this fee is also collected in the United States on inbound international items). Customs duties and taxes are assessed, generally, if the item sent is dutiable and if the value of the item is above the threshold set by the country's laws. Each country assesses customs, duties, and taxes. Check the World Customs Organization website for general information, or visit the website of that country's customs service.
It is important to understand that, if duties and taxes are assessed on an item mailed via the Postal Service™, they are collected from the recipient. Postage is charged to cover the expense of delivery only. Postage does not cover charges assessed by customs in the destination country.
Shipping to Australia & New Zealand
Please note, all regular shipping from the US Postal Service to Australia and New Zealand have been suspended as of September of 2021. Priority mail express is the only option available at the moment.
Also, Sungrubbies is no longer able to honor any special shipping rates towards all shipments to either country. This is all due to the sudden change in shipping regulations. We will open up regular shipping options once US Postal Service suspension is lifted.

backhander
Recommended by my friend. Admired her backhander and she told me where to buy a pair. I find gloves too restrictive, these are a great alternative!

backhander gloves
I love these gloves. I use them when playing with or when riding my horses. They keep the sun off of my hands and still allow me th feel the rope or reins. And they are not nearly as hot as other sun protective gloves.

Great but please size for smaller hands too!
These are exactly what I am looking for EXCEPT! I can wrap the closure around my wrist and nearly miss the velcro strip (1=4" of velcro meets the closure, leaving a big strip hanging loose). I know I am not the only one with small hands. PLEASE make these in a smaller size. I am keeping them because they are the only ones like this I have seen. But it's like a kid wearing his dad's clothes.
