Clover Protect & Grip Thimble Large-

This is the best thimble I've ever used. Only the end of it is metal; the upper part is silicone or rubber, which stays on your finger. The holes also prevent sweat from making the thimble move around.

I have not tried them all, but of all I've tried (about 15 different varities) this is my favorite. It is adjustable, fits my finger best, doesn't fall off, and it also allows for longer nails. It's very comfortable to use. My only problem is finding the one I have. I generally work on several projects at once and it's always with the one I'm not working on. So I'm buying a couple more - Voilà - problem fixed. There are similar open sided thimbles to this that are lined with a silicone layer but it doesn't slide on nicely (since there is silicone), and those just feel thick and awkward. I've even tried those thin bands which are also lined with silicone but my needle always ends up where they are not. Ouch! I've tried the standard metal round thimbles we all grew up with which have never fit and fall off. I never figured out how people used those. Glue maybe? I've tried several leather thimbles which I do like, but they can be a bit thick and I spend more time trying to keep them on my finger than I do sewing. I'm finished searching for and trying out new thimbles. I found one that works great for me. This is it!

These are fantastic for sewing, especially if you work with leather. I tried other cheaper ones, but they were not finished as well as the clover. This fits well, is adjustable, open back it stays in place and doesn’t pop off like a regular thimble.

This is a really good thimble, especially for people who have difficulty in using the metal thimbles.

There's no other thimble that compares to these in my opinion. I've been hand quilting for years and wouldn't do it without these thimbles. Love the comfortable fit and the grip material on the funnel that helps pull threads through. Stays on my finger too with a good grip.

Tried saving with a cheaper version- don’t bother trying! This fits comfortably & doesn’t turn my finger a different color. I hand quilt up to king size quilts and can use this type of thimble to get small ( or larger) and even stitches with ease.

It fits and I don't get stuck when I use it but it's a little bit loose and I have fat fingers. That being said it is adjustable however once you go down that path you have new problems. It's easy to use and adjust and it's sturdy I just need to be able to feel so I only use it when it's a must.

I liked the fit, snug where it needs to be without being too snug. Does it's job and fits and feels good.
