I worked out in the yard for a couple hours pulling stuff and moving brush and they seem to have held up well to that. I got stuck by a rose thorn, but the small prickly "pine" bushes didn't penetrate at all. It had rained earlier so it was a good test of wet weather grip and waterproofing.
I kind of expected the black area to be waterproof (not the rest of it of course), but I don't know that it is 100%. Either I sweated in them or the water that got elsewhere wicked in to under the rubber in the fingers and palms, or the black rubber isn't totally waterproof for long periods of exposure to water. I don't know which it was, probably the second, maybe the latter as it's supposedly "foam" and not a solid rubber coating.
The grip was still pretty good on long wet grass as well.
I also do some work with animals that require handling raw and ground meats and I was considering using these instead of the blue "latex" gloves, but I'm not sure if I'd trust them not to soak up some of that blood. I figured I'd need to wash them but it's not great if it gets to my hands anyway. Maybe I need the more actually waterproof ones for that.
Gloves fit nicely, very comfortable. As to durability, well time will tell. I will write more when I know more. So far so good.
**UPDATE**
I've been using these for a few months now and I can honestly say that they are quite durable. The writing across the knuckles and across the back of the hand wears off pretty quickly, but the gloves themselves are quite durable. Great buy!
I have never liked wearing gloves, but doing plumbing/construction for 50 years, I know that there are many good reasons. These gloves protect well, and still are not very thick, so keep a bit of flexibility. They have helped in close work, when the glove melted instead of my skin, or been cut by the saw blade instead of me. I order by the dozen usually and will continue to as these are the best I've found to date, and the price is very reasonable also.
I use these for bodywork, when sanding primer or body filler. The nitrile coating has very limited texture and is great for feeling bodywork. I like these instead of the 6 mil nitrile gloves because they are very breathable and don’t get sweaty. Aside from this, they are great for feeling waves, lows, highs, and ripples in the bodywork and primer. These are NOT waterproof at all. They’ll get soaked and disgusting with water, and lacquer thinner will run right through them as well. I usually wear a large but these mediums fit nice and slim,perfect for bodywork and block sanding.
These were purchased for our fire investigators to help protect their hands while digging through fire debris. These fit well, allowing for good dexterity when picking up smaller objects, while offering a good amount of protection. Depending on how they have been used, the gloves can also be washed and reused. Though, these are inexpensive enough to replace after each investigation if damaged or heavily soiled.

Bought these when right before I changed the pads and rotors on my car and they worked well. They did make a huge difference in how much dust was on my hands after the job was done.
My wife recently used these for gardening and they worked well.
I did snag one of the gloves on the brackets of the new pads which left a micro-hole in the tip of the finger. These may not hold up well after long periods of use or near sharp abrasive objects. It does come in a 3-pack though so good value for the money.
Looking for a pack of gloves to replace the wells Lamont that Costco doesn’t have any more. These gloves are decent, run a little on the small side, and hold up ok. They stink more than any foam latex glove I have tried. I use them daily and they last me about 4 days as a truck driver.
didn't know how they would fit. Size chart said xl but most of the time I take a xxl in leather gloves and large is the only size you can find in big box stores. I ordered 3 sets of xl and xxl to see what size fits. The xl fit good so I'll go back and order a larger pak of xl.
I wear these gloves to ticket merchandise in a warehouse. I only wear the right glove I leave my left bare. It really stands the test I've gotten a lot of use. So far the middle finger tips has worn. But still good. However, got to get the habit of washing them. I ticket all sorts of stuff that spills. From essential oils, cleaning solution, spices it gets funky. Love these and its a 3 pack.
