After having bought several pair of Ringers brand impact/cut resistant Kevlar gloves designed quite similarly to this product; it was only after having to tried these because of a significant price difference at the time that I learned how much better these are in durability. The nitrile coating on the palm side of the has lasted much longer here and is actually still intact after over two months of daily use in the machine shop I work for. I don't recall exactly how long it took for the coating to wear off of the Ringers, but it was the main cause for buying replacements. After the coating wore through, oils and soot saturated the Kevlar and soon my hands as well. Long before the gloves really accumulated much wear to the material, they were just getting me unnecessarily dirty whenever I used them. These last significantly longer and also feature a reinforced webbing between the thumb and index fingers, which is always the first place this style of glove seems to break down. My only real complaint with these is a complaint that I have with nearly all gloves. I do not care for the long wrist portion and would prefer that gloves end just past what I call the heel of my palm. I realize that it's just more cut protective this way, but i just find it very uncomfortable and so, with a great and annoying amount of effort, I always cut them off to suit my preference. This is obviously just a personal issue and others likely don't share my feelings on this. I would also like to commend the fit of these gloves, since it was my original reason for choosing them. I can perform basically any dextrous tasks wearing these gloves because they stay tight. I can pick up coins, start small screws, and handle very small hex keys with no trouble and this style of glove is the only cut resistant glove I can say that about.
These gloves are worth their weight in gold. I was working with some 4x4 posts. And one started to fall. I stopped it but it splinted as i caught it. These gloves stops a 4 inch long 1/2 inch wide splinter from going through my hand. Well done to the maker of these gloves.
Perfect fit. Protects those fragile digits from cuts, slices, knicks and knife tip punctures. Will help save $$$$ on hospital emergency room visits and first aid kits!!!
Exactly as it looks
I have fragile skin and I still work with tools and debris that can tear my skin off. I need good protection.

Fit as expected and very well built. Slightly on the bulky side.
The top of the glove starts to come off after a month and the stitching as well. But still dont get when im scrapping or deburring.
No issues...
