How Waterproof Are the Work Gloves?

The Gloves feature a waterproof lining that will keep your palm and fingers completely dry. They keep them so dry in fact, that if you where to lower your hands into a bucket of water, then they would stay entirely dry! The wrist however is only water-resistant, which improves dexterity and prevents water from entering the gloves due to its tight fit.

How Warm Are the Waterproof Gloves?

The Gloves are designed for freezing conditions, offering protection even when working in temperatures as low as -50°C. Their nylon layer is supported by a warm and snug fit that prevents cold air from escaping, making them perfect for cold outdoor work and working in simulated cold environments such as a freezer or cold store.

How Comfortable Are the Gloves?

An inner fleece lining makes the gloves feel snug (while not overly tight) and warm, meaning that you have a cushioning feel across your hands during use. This is welcome in freezing weather, where you might be feeling a little uncomfortable. Despite their snug and warm fit, they don’t compromise dexterity, meaning that you can still get to grips with the trickiest of tools.

How Protective Are the Gloves?

These gloves are built for extreme weather, with the waterproof lining supported by warm fleece that keeps you comfortable. That’s not to say that the gloves don’t compromise on protection, and they offer good all-round protection against abrasion, cuts and tears. This is particularly ideal for outdoor work such as DIY or wood handling, as the gloves will prevent your hands from knocks and scrapes.
