Ironclad Heavy Utility Work Gloves HUG, High Abrasion Resistance, Performance Fit, Durable, Machine Washable, (1 Pair), XX-LARGE

These Ironclad Heavys are my new favorite gloves. I'm very picky, so this says a lot. I used to like the Mechanix Impact gloves, but they changed the design long ago to one that was essentially designed to fail at the area near the base of the thumb. I loved those gloves, and was very disappointed at the short life. I continued to wear what I had for the years following until I was desperate for replacement. Fast Forward to a few months ago, my last pair of M gloves were just done in. I had to get some new ones. I ordered a couple of different gloves from CLC and this pair from Ironclad, and have been wearing them for various general use and work projects. The standouts of the bunch are these Heavy Utility Gloves from Ironclad. The CLC gloves are okay, but these Ironclads seem better thought out with fit and design placement of abrasion materials in the palm and fingers. I love the use of synthetics in the build, making them extremely durable and washable, compared to leather and suede. I think suede in wear/stress areas in work gloves is a huge mistake. Suede seems to wear poorly, and tears like paper. Also, with the Ironclads being synthetic, I just toss 'em into the washer with the work clothes, put 'em on wet, make a fist a few times, push on to fingers/webbing to shape/stretch/conform, take off by the fingertips, and hang to dry. These things are amazingly comfortable, though do take a little time to break in. They offer pretty good dexterity for a "heavy duty" work glove. They get more comfortable with every use. I look forward to my jobs for the opportunity to wear my gloves. They offer refinement of the process, same as the pleasure of working with quality tools. Working with rough cut lumber and other potentially hand damaging materials with confidence, no worries for splinters or pinches. Great help against fatigue. Ordering a couple pair as backups. Ironclad is my go-to from now on for work gloves. Long may the quality continue!

Worth the price. It's comfortable and the material quality feels good.

I've worn my first pair out, and I will be purchasing them again, they are that good. I bought these gloves for a specific project, moving a pile of rocks, a very large pile of rocks. The rocks varied in size from baseball to basketball sized, and were a variety of types. One thing was for sure, there were a lot of rocks. These gloves held up like champs. I really put them through their uses and they lasted long enough to finish the project, which took most of the summer, moving four fully stone laden wheel barrows a day. They didn't quite make it to the end of summer, the seams along two fingers finally gave way, the rocks won that battle. I don't expect gloves to last forever, I just need them to last long enough to get the job done. The fit is fantastic, and just about every feature of this product came into play when I did my project. I even got a lot of use out of the sweat wipe over the thumb, and the protection across the knuckles saved my hands on more than one occasion on this particular project. I am hard on gloves, and tend to go through them, and while these are not the last pair you will ever buy, and they are not indestructible by any means, they do a good job for me. I am not a professional tradesman, so I can't speak to how they would hold up under more rugged conditions, but for my uses around the house, garden and a home wood shop in a non-professional capacity, they are the best I have used in a long time. I consider gloves part of the cost of doing any project, and to spend less than twenty bucks to protect my hands is a small price to add to a project with inherent physical dangers. As I mentioned earlier, my pair did rip along the seams at the ends of the fingers, and if there was a way to reinforce the seams by covering them with another layer of material, I would pay the extra price without so much as a blink. I will be replacing my pair soon enough with another pair of the same brand and style. There are probably better gloves out there, and if you do some research you can find gloves that are considerably more costly, but for my dollar, these are a great value. Got to stick with a winner.

Okay, first time using Ironclad gloves. This is for warehouse receiving, truck unloading, merchandise sorting, handling nasty sprintered wood pallets and all sorts of chinese made crap. In the past I've used Mechanix and Husky from Home Depot. Husky gloves are not designed to handle this type of work. Mechanix fit well, and seem to last a reasonable amount of time. Decided to try Ironclad because reviews state they outlast Mechanix. Wore these gloves for the first time last night. First impression... very stiff and possibly too tight. Could barely pick up a pencil and hold it properly to write on a manifest. Also- Some sort of sharp seam, inside near the base of the index finger where multiple pieces of material come together. Noticed it in both gloves and was not pleased. Decided to give these a chance, break them in and see how they felt. I'm happy to report after 4 hours of truck unload, they gloves had already started to "break in" and feel really comfortable. After 8 hours I could handle a pencil much better and the sharp seams and stiff leather were supple and not an issue. I should state, these gloves appear to be well made. Lot's of reinforced leather or synthetic leather at key contact points on the palms and fingers. Certain amount of knuckle protection (TPC) and breathable material on the backs of the fingers. These appear to be serious work gloves. I will update this review as the weeks go by , I'm hoping to get a few good months out of these.

I'm not one to give off bad reviews lightly. In this case I just have to. Gloves looked good enough as a lot of effort is put into logos and details, unfortunately this is what they look like after 3 days of heavy use, the leathery parts dont survive strain and the sticthing is close to falling apart. I needed them for a two month stint, at this rate I'll destroy one pair per week. Someone clearly has to rethink what they consider hard/tough work.

Item received as described. Great quality product. Well recommended!

A great pair of gloves. They have lasted for months and are still going strong. I am impressed with the build quality. Sure, over time they acquire some wear and tear but I have yet to get a hole. I will definitely be buying these again.

I'm a tree surgeon. And these gloves are by far the best I've had. Comfy, grippy, tough, but even after all that you can still tie knots and fiddle with small clips relatively easily.

No son los guantes que he comprado, son menos robustos que los que vienen en la foto. Una estafa
