Ironclad Ranchworx Work Gloves RWG2, Premier Leather Work Glove, Performance Fit, Durable, Machine Washable, (1 Pair), RWG2-04-L,Brown/Black

God, I loved these gloves so much. Protected me from anything and everything. Although I didn't wear them daily, I found every excuse in my spare time to wear them. My girlfriend knew how much I loved them so she didn't give me too much of a hard time for wearing them around the house for the dumbest things. You want me to move the TV? Let me get my gloves! You want me to assemble the furniture? Let me get my gloves! You want me to cook dinner? Let me get my gloves! Hahaha. Seriously though. These were some good gloves. For things like gardening, the glove material is good for scraping the dirt and digging shallow areas with the tips of your fingers. That I could tell, the material was not affected by the gardening whatsoever. It held up very well with planting trees, bushes, and plants. I even removed a dead half-way cut palm tree with just these gloves and a $15 axe. Took me a while to get the roots out but I wouldn't have been able to do it if the gloves were not sturdy enough to allow me to grab on to the roots and repeatedly pull them out. They protect well against a cactus, ocotillo, aloe vera plants and other native desert landscaping. Obviously, you have to oerate around these things with care but they're good protection if you accidentally brush across a cactus. Can't hardly feel anything. Again, I don't intentially grab cacti all day so I don't know what repeated stress against sharp objects would do but I know they held up against sharp objects very well. Pulling weeds held up fine. Allowed me to do three hours of work rather than just one because my hands started hurting. You could probably pull weeds for 4-6 hours with no issues. They're comfortable enough that the repeated rub against your hand isn't felt but your fingers still have enough feeling to feel your way around the base of the weed and accurately find the center and pull it up. I've used it with some general woodworking, fence crafting, coop building, a/c work, furniture sanding, sealing, and painting, oil changes and other motorcycle work. It held up well with the building-related things but you might find it hard to work with smaller parts until you've worn the glove in very well. So, in that respect, dexterity may be impacted by the thickness and durability of the glove material. This can be a barrier and honestly, I'll probably not use them very often for motorcycle work. These gloves will absorb the oil - even if you are careful - and you need that oil/water/liquid resistant surface on the glove palm to work properly with motorcycle or auto work so while the gloves could probably hold up, I really would not recommend them for that type of work. The gloves lasted three months of use with no sign of falling apart but someone (my little brother most likely) must have had sticky fingers because they went missing after the last group yard project we held a few months back. I think if you use these all day, every day, you can expect them to last 1-3 months. People have unrealistic expectations of gloves. If you can perform your work for 1-3 months, 8-10 hours per day then the glove has done it's job and the truth is that you're in a profession that requires a cost to maintain. I work in IT and I consider having my own IT equipment at home - that the company does not pay for - as part of the cost of work. So for those complaining about how they hold up against every day use - be realistic! I have motorcycle gloves that cost me $80. They've lasted about 7-8 months of every day use but are starting to show signs of wear and a strap is broken; they will last another 3-4 months max (so $80-100 per year to wear my gloves every day on my motorcycle). So, if you want a better quality glove, you need to put more money into it. The strength and quality of a material is definitely impacted by what you're willing to pay. Otherwise, this is a good glove. You can't go wrong here.

Excellent gloves. very comfortable and excellent fit for my hands. I like the velcro cuff. USed on an irrigation job with lots of digging and gloves held up very well, they do not show any wear. Decent price for a high quality glove.

I've had these for a couple years now. I've treated them bad (ie I keep leaving them outside for weeks at a time) and they're still perfect. Super tough, and the cloth part on the thumb is perfect for itchy nose while working (allergies lol). I think these are my forever gloves, I'm only getting these from here on out. Anything else would be a disappointment.

New gloves are stiff and need to be broken in. The sweat wiper on the back of the thumb is a something I can't live without. These gloves are by far my favorite work gloves. No glove will last you forever but these last a lot longer than most. If you are doing abrasive stuff with you hands like picking up bricks the fingers will wear. The good news is they are double layered. After a while working on the Florida heat they started to smell like a locker room. I washed them in the sink (amazing amount of filth came off) and then I put them in the washing machine. They came out looking 100x better than when they went in. They were a bit stiff but I put them on and that went away. I ordered a new pair so I will include a "before and after picture". The "after" gloves are just starting to wear through the middle finger. You can see the first layer of leather is gone and they are splitting at the corners of the trip of the finger. If need be you can slather "Shoe Goo" on any splits that develop and it will fix that problem for good. I just rotate them out into my "light duty" gloves when they get to the last 20% of life and they last forever there.

Feel solid with good protection, fit well, good and thick for work situations. Probably not the best for warmth, and I don't think they're waterproof.

They are a little tight. I would go one size up from what you normally do but they look and feel high quality and super sturdy yet flexible. Looking forward to putting these to work digging with post hole diggers. My hands were getting ripped up!!

These gloves are exactly what I needed! I pick up a lot of wood pieces as we heat our house with a wood-burning stove. I chop the wood into kindling and stack it. Then, of course, there's also feeding the logs into the fire. So, lots of wood handling. My leather gloves worked okay, but the leather could still be pierced so I'm hoping the Kevlar in the palms of these will be better protection. They are a nice snug fit without being too tight (I bought the medium). They are comfortable to wear and I feel very protected while tossing the wood around. As you can see in the photos, they are a bit long for me, but I think they're made for men. Still, the fingers are a better fit than the leather gloves, so I am able to pick up small pieces easier. These are still fairly new, so hopefully they will continue to offer the protection I need.

I've had these gloves for 2 years now and they're still going strong! The leather is genuine so it needs to be broken in, but once it's broken in they are very comfortable. They are heavy duty so I have high confidence in their protection. They fit well, easy to put on and take off because they do not use the velcro strap that so many have. I use these things all the time. Great buy!

Nice

I am using for farming use and product is good. It washable easily

Good Quality and comfortable
