review by Karen

June 2024

How long I’ve been using this product: 2+ years
How often I use this product: A couple times a week
My gut feeling: Great, useful product; highly recommend for gardening
Why did you choose this product? Useful for pruning roses and other thorny bushes due to long length; provides hand and forearm protection as gardener reaches in and around bush, as well as protects fingers from being punctured by thorns; keeps hands clean while working in dirt; users can operate touch screen on tablets and smartphones without removing gloves. Has extra padding in palms and fingertips. Elbow length protection.
What are its pros? I have found these gloves to be comfortable, while providing superior protection from scratches and skin pricks. Not waterproof, but may be water resistant cowhide.
What are its cons? May lessen fine motor skills, sensitivity, e.g., for picking up small objects like coins or seeds
Might be relevant for individuals with: Decreased grip or hand strength or sensitive hands

I still use and like these. I prefer them over regular garden gloves due to length.
