Does anyone know of a lightweight glove that can be worn while swimming? Something like thin cotton gloves, but a material that won't absorb water and be difficult to remove.
When sharing a lane with someone who takes up a lot of room I try to stay close to the lane line out of self-preservation. Occasionally I hit my knuckles on the line, so I usually have a few skinned spots on my hands. I figured gloves might help. So would swimming in a straighter line, but that gets messed up by the other guy's wake.;)
Does anybody else run into this problem?

I'm very familiar with scraped knuckles and sliced fingernails. The lane lines in our pool are old and many of the dividers are cracked and have very sharp edges. It can be hard on the shoulder too- if you wander into the lane lines during backstroke. Good luck with the glove idea.
