I'm a professional gardener/landscaper- These are good work gloves, but I prefer the 370's. They're comfortable, very grippy, and not too thick, but much less durable than the 370's (which are a little thinner too).so i am a process operator in the oil and gas industry and my duties include interfacing with equipment, climbing ladders and taking equipment readings on a regular basis throughout my daily shift. i needed gloves that would offer suitable protection from hot/cold surfaces, had sufficient grip while holding equipment or climbing ladders and were fitted enough so that i can write comfortably and legibly with them on. that is where these come in. Created by Showa, they were designed for the oil and gas industry.they are comfortable and do not cause skin irritations even when worn for long periods of time. The nitrile waffle grip is quite good in that it provides just enough grip as well as being thick enough to provide some comfort while your palms are in contact with equipment. Some gloves I've used grip so strongly that they actually slide off your hands while performing operations such as turning valve actuators or while holding on to ladder rungs. for writing or performing activities that require good dexterity, these were found suitable. the sizing though, was important. I used the hand sizing chart on SHOWA's website and on the diagram my hand was between 7 and 8. I went with size 7 since these gloves can stretch so that i would not have excess glove at the finger tips. They fit well and i have used them several times already. also they are very durable so you don't have to dispose of them immediately. as long as they weren't in contact with hazardous chemicals, i simply wash them and re-use them. it's better to handwash and allow to dry away from direct sunlight to protect the nitrile foam grip.Tried multiple different kinds of disposable gloves. Was tired of getting my hands f’d up all the time. I am a career mechanic. These are great b/c they are breathable and can clean off grips with brake cleaner. As far as the fabric portion I do soak and wash them. Once they get overly soiled with scums. Best gloves of this style in my opinion. Much better than the Showa 370’s and I’ve tried maxi flex and other brands similar, these seem to hold up the best. Highly recommend these if you are tired of murdering your hands in the meckanick profession.Tough, comfortable, provide great grip in a variety of conditions (wet, dirty, greasy), inexpensive - what's not to love? I tend to be pretty hard on gloves - so I've tried a lot of different types and brands. These fit snugly and don't stretch out. They are cool and comfortable even in pretty hot conditions. I've used these for gardening, helping a friend move (great grip on furniture), installing a set of headers on my truck (dirty, dirty, work), loading 6000lbs of rock onto a flatbed, and general yard maintenance. So far, they've held up really well to a broad range of abuse and a couple of washings. I'd highly recommend these to anyone looking for a good general purpose work glove - and while they won't replace leather or heavy nitrile for some jobs - I'm really happy with them.Love the waffle pattern, awesome gripping, tight comfortable fit. Im a Arborist so any glove I use is put to the test, will definitely buy again. DI absolutely loved these gloves. I’m at mechanic and they have awesome grip and protect my hands as well.I hate wearing gloves at work but I need to and these are the best fitting and comfortableAwesome gloves. Breathable, great grip. I use them for everything from yardwork to carpentry.I have always like these gloves because it fits my hands perfectly and the rubber palm makes holding onto boxes much easier ... from my local store these go for about $7-$8 CAD a pair ... on amazon, about $5 CAD a pair (very good deal) ... they are a good pair of gloves but not very durable ... I use them 8-11 hours a day, 5 days a week ... after 2 weeks of usage, the rubber on the palm is all stripped away ... overall it is a good pair of glove.False advertising because says you get 24 pairs but only give you 12. Very disappointedThese gloves met my expectations. Took a long time to get them.My review is very good but your price is very high
