Finally...a pair of gloves that are impervious to prickly brush, thorny vines, and even barbed wire! We live on 40 acres of mostly wooded land, and I am constantly clearing brush and pulling vines from trees. I’ve been using these gloves for five months and have yet to be stuck by anything I’ve handled....including a strand of half-buried barbed wire that I just grabbed and pulled. They are not too stiff, but are thick, so I use thinner gloves for more delicate work. I wish they were available in women’s sizes. The men’s small work for me but are a bit loose.
5 stars for these worry-free, heavy-duty work gloves!
I bought these gloves to ride Motorcycles in the summer:
Pro:
Cloth back for air circulation.
Leather is thick and abrasion resistant.
Fully kevlar lined for even greater cut and abrasion resistance.
Good non-slip grip.
Cheap.
Uses kevlar thread will not come apart in a accident.
Cons
Liner can bunch up.
Shell runs large
Liner runs a little small.and can float around in the glove.
Have not broken them in yet but so far they are stiff and lack good dexterity.
Just what I'll need for the cold months. Great protection from cuts and injuries from handling metal deck bars {metal shard splinters), crates (nails protrude)and the cold, we work in terminal with 250 doors for trailers so what ever the temp is outside is what it is inside or worse.
My husband needs these gloves for his work. Due to what he does, we have a hard time finding gloves that fit, last, and aren't high priced. These seem to fit the bill for all three!
made for those chores with thorns and briars at a reasonable price---would recomend

I am using these gloves to clear brush. Lots of sharp buckthorn. Gloves offer superb protection.
The gloves were just what we wanted, but, We also wanted some in 4XXXX. Do you have that size?
