I love these gloves. I first encountered these on my previous job and never bought any other since. I've tried different brands from big box stores including Harbor Freight but non compares to the lightness and dexterity of these. It is as if you were holding your work with your bare hands and yet protected. If there is anything I hate while working with a glove, it is trying to hold the work piece or any bolt (small pieces of stuff) and could not really grab them to the finger level.
Pros:
Fits my hands perfect (No other glove does- their sizing has better increments than other brands)
- Very dependable on any work around the house and car
- The hand/fingers are not restrained when working
- Cool in the hands
Cons:
- None. except everything have its lifespan.
Tip:
- Find your size first if you do not know it!
I wish they were:
- cheaper and widely available
These are a little bit expensive than the rest but are much worth it for better productivity.
But still, I 'll buy these anytime over any other gloves and so I highly recommend to anybody to try them out!
These gloves run a half-size larger than the retail store Ansell products, possibly because they are meant to be laundered & reused. I normally wear a size 10, but had purchase a size 9 to get a tight fit. They are perfect for everyday work tasks like packaging and light manufacturing, and I can wear them ALL DAY, unlike the nitrile or heavier retail gloves. I can often use the same pair for several weeks before the coating wears off. Grainger stocks this 11-801 style in multiple sizes for the Amazon Fresh Fulfillment Center in Wood Dale, IL and I used them everyday there with great satisfaction. I am convinced that they are the best gloves in their class, although the single pair price is a bit steep. I purchased them in a twelve pack for 3.28 each, so I'm certainly not going to ordering any more for myself.
Been wearing Mech**ix gloves for years, and those are good, but these have now surpassed those as my "go to" hand protection. These are oil resistant until you get oil all the way up to the fabric, which quite good if you consider that Mech**ix gloves soak oil EVERYWHERE it touches.. These simply grip better without being sticky and fit -exactly- all contours of my hand by perfectly stretching to meet my hand dimensions (although they are slightly tight when putting them on, once you work them for an hour, that's when they begin to fit perfectly, with ZERO rub points that would cause a blister). But, don't get me wrong about being stretchy, they are still very tough and way cheaper overall (per each) than buying other gloves. Be sure to check out their website to make sure you get the correct size for your hand (which is only an 8 for me).
I work with very small metal parts and grind tiny details into steel making sculptures. These gloves give me the dexterity I need with my finger tips millimeters away from a grinding wheel. They don’t protect a ton from a flap wheel but a decent amount from small hot steel parts! I buy a size smaller than usual and allow my fingers to stretch the glove to conform to my hand!
I originally purchased these gloves at a local store and used them mostly for spring planting. They work perfectly for planting a garden because they are lightweight and the fit is nice and snug, giving me the dexterity needed for handling seeds and transplants but still protecting my hands. They also work great for pulling small weeds due to the superb dexterity they offer. I wore them out pretty quickly. When I went back to the store to replace them, they no longer carried them. I was very happy to find them on Amazon.com. I now have 12 pair! I normally wear a size 7 in women’s gloves, but the Medium (size 8) fits best in these. A smaller size would make it difficult to slip the gloves on. I have tried other, similar gloves, but like these best because of the snug fit and they don’t make my hands sweat. These are not for heavy duty work. Best to use your leather garden gloves for those jobs. In my opinion, they are the best gloves of this type. I would recommend them to all my fellow gardeners.

I own a custom framing store and we use the Ansell 11-801 gloves when we are cutting glass and working to get it assembled into the frames....these gloves give us just the right combination of grip and are thin enough that we can still "feel" what we are doing. Purchase not so much for the protection but to help us avoid fingerprinting up the glass while we handle it...which in turn saves us time and frustration in cleaning. We use a lot of Museum glass, which has an anti-reflective coating that is totally clear--which means every little fingerprint shows! I also like that they come in lot of sizes because we can find a size to fit everyone. You can throw these in the washer a couple of times, by the way, but they'll start to break down after that...at which point I use them for yard work at home.
These gloves are outstanding, there just thick enough to protect you but thin enough you can pick up small part's like washers off the work bench. Here's the rub, The size 9 that I wear are only $5.73 Prime. If you go to a size 10 there over $12 bucks with shipping. But type in the search box
Ansell Hy Flex gloves and there are a bunch to pick from
My husband came across these gloves while doing a job for his employer. He brought home the pair he used on the job and immediately asked me if I could find him some more to wear while he worked in his auto shop. I was glad to find them on amazon.com and now we both wear them anytime we do any tasks where gloves are needed. They are so flexible that you can do very detailed work with them yet they are very tough. They have a coating on them which gives you a good grip but is still pliable. The fit is excellent.
I found the Ansell company online and was amazed at the amount of thought that went into making these gloves. Ansell has gloves from medical use (nursing/doctor) to thick high end gloves for people working with needles and contagious diseases, all the way to gloves for consruction, plumbling,mechanics and fire proof gloves.
They help you find the perfect pair by having a checklist to help narrow down your choice. The prices on Amazon were EXCELLENT!!
My only piece of advice would be to order one size larger than you might normally consider.
These are perfect for working on a car, as long as you're not expecting to be splashed with a lot of fluid since they're open knit on the back. Nice amount of finger coverage, and the palm/finger surface is really great - thin enough for good feel, but tough and grippy.
