These hackle pliers are great. Loop allows me to put my finger in and spin the pliers around the hook. I use them all the time.

These are the only hackle pliers I use. the shape allows you to rotate the pliers without having to adjust your fingers. A vast improvement over the English style.
The lighter weight and smooth jaws of these pliers make them excellent for delicate hackles. I find that they break the hackle time much less than standard English hackle pliers do when I'm tying dry flies and soft hackles in smaller sizes. They were a bit stiff and hard to open at first, but soon loosened up.
