Design and Build

The gloves use pigskin leather as the primary material. The product information states that the back of the glove is made of 100% pigskin, while the finger and palm areas use genuine leather. A notable design element is the double-layered pigskin on the fingers, which the listing describes as providing protection to the fingers. The palm is padded and described as puncture resistant, and the fingertips are reinforced.

The cuff extends 8½ inches beyond the hand, which is intended to protect the forearm. This longer cuff is a distinguishing feature compared to standard gardening gloves. An elastic wristband is incorporated into the design to reduce tightness across the back of the hand, according to the product information.

The leather is described as having larger pores that allow for breathability. The product information also states that the pigskin dries soft after getting wet and helps keep hands cool and comfortable. These are stated characteristics of the material rather than results of independent testing.

• Trimming roses, with the long cuff intended to help avoid stabbing the arm.
• Branch cleaning, with the gloves intended to help avoid hand cuts from weeds.

• Weeding in the garden.
• Handling poison ivy, for users with sensitive skin who may react when tidying leaves.
