SHOWA380 Foamed Nitrile Palm Coated General Purpose Work Gloves with Nylon Liner, 13-Gauge, Large (12 Pair)

These are grippy and comfortable work gloves, for at least some cirucumstances. Of the type, synthetic fabric with rubber or other grip enhancing palm and fingers, these are the best I've found. They last well, but of course eventually wear out or dry out (the rubber loses some of it's grab), but that's to be expected.

Tough, comfortable, provide great grip in a variety of conditions (wet, dirty, greasy), inexpensive - what's not to love? I tend to be pretty hard on gloves - so I've tried a lot of different types and brands. These fit snugly and don't stretch out. They are cool and comfortable even in pretty hot conditions. I've used these for gardening, helping a friend move (great grip on furniture), installing a set of headers on my truck (dirty, dirty, work), loading 6000lbs of rock onto a flatbed, and general yard maintenance. So far, they've held up really well to a broad range of abuse and a couple of washings. I'd highly recommend these to anyone looking for a good general purpose work glove - and while they won't replace leather or heavy nitrile for some jobs - I'm really happy with them.

I’ve order these 4 times already. My husband and nephew are both mechanics and these gloves have helped to keep their hands clean and from getting cuts or burners. They are reusable so they last a long time thus saving money from having to buy rubber gloves all the time.

I'm a professional gardener/landscaper- These are good work gloves, but I prefer the 370's. They're comfortable, very grippy, and not too thick, but much less durable than the 370's (which are a little thinner too).

so i am a process operator in the oil and gas industry and my duties include interfacing with equipment, climbing ladders and taking equipment readings on a regular basis throughout my daily shift. i needed gloves that would offer suitable protection from hot/cold surfaces, had sufficient grip while holding equipment or climbing ladders and were fitted enough so that i can write comfortably and legibly with them on. that is where these come in. Created by Showa, they were designed for the oil and gas industry.they are comfortable and do not cause skin irritations even when worn for long periods of time. The nitrile waffle grip is quite good in that it provides just enough grip as well as being thick enough to provide some comfort while your palms are in contact with equipment. Some gloves I've used grip so strongly that they actually slide off your hands while performing operations such as turning valve actuators or while holding on to ladder rungs. for writing or performing activities that require good dexterity, these were found suitable. the sizing though, was important. I used the hand sizing chart on SHOWA's website and on the diagram my hand was between 7 and 8. I went with size 7 since these gloves can stretch so that i would not have excess glove at the finger tips. They fit well and i have used them several times already. also they are very durable so you don't have to dispose of them immediately. as long as they weren't in contact with hazardous chemicals, i simply wash them and re-use them. it's better to handwash and allow to dry away from direct sunlight to protect the nitrile foam grip.

Tried multiple different kinds of disposable gloves. Was tired of getting my hands f’d up all the time. I am a career mechanic. These are great b/c they are breathable and can clean off grips with brake cleaner. As far as the fabric portion I do soak and wash them. Once they get overly soiled with scums. Best gloves of this style in my opinion. Much better than the Showa 370’s and I’ve tried maxi flex and other brands similar, these seem to hold up the best. Highly recommend these if you are tired of murdering your hands in the meckanick profession.

The gloves are good. However, I believed I was ordering 24-pairs, not 24 gloves. Listing gloves by the each is essentially lying. If I did this I would know I was lying. These are twice the price that you think they would be.

Great comfortable gloves for doing my Carpentry work, my plumbing work, and electrical work!
