Rose Gloves

Great Protection, Comfort, and Fit – A Must for Thorny Yard Work!I’m really happy I found these gardening gloves—they’ve been a game-changer for tackling my rose bushes and general yard work. The extended cuffs are a huge plus, offering protection almost up to the elbows, which is perfect for reaching into thorny or overgrown areas without getting scratched up. No more wrapping my arms in plastic!The gloves are well-constructed and surprisingly effective. Even with older, thorn-heavy rose bushes, I barely feel anything through the material. I’ve also used them in wet soil after rain, and they’ve held up well—my fingers stayed dry even after a few hours of weeding. While they don’t look overly bulky, they provide solid protection and decent water resistance.Sizing was spot on for me (I went with Medium), though I also tried a Large and found the fingers a bit too long. If you’re unsure, consider trying both, but they do seem to run true to size.Overall, these gloves are sturdy, comfortable, and absolutely worth it if you need reliable protection for serious gardening. Highly recommend!

I'm a Master Gardener and these are the best gardening gloves I even had in my life. What I love about them is when the gloves get wet with mud they do not dry like cement. They remain completely supple. It's amazing! You can spray them off with the hose and they are like brand new again. They fit true to for and the glove part is very soft. The sleeve part is very strong. You can also pull the drawstring at the arm to tighten the glove if you wish. They have endured large thorns from rose bushes and have taken a beating every which way. No holes... nothing! They are SO durable. I love them so much I bought two more pairs to keep handy in case they ever stopped making them. These will last me forever. I tried lots of gloves. You don't have to look any further once you get these.

This is an awesome pair of work gloves! Way more dependable than my x husband! Pulling prickly weeds with ease without coming through the extended length also protects from all the poison ivy’s!! Not sure how the finger tips will hold up that’s always been my issue with gardening gloves! Will order more..great colors too!!

These gloves handled our dragon fruit cactus trimming much better than expected. The fabric is breathable and soft on the inside but reinforced in all the right areas—especially around the fingers and forearms. The thorn resistance is excellent for most typical garden thorns, and while we still felt a few pokes when directly pressing into the spines, it didn’t break through.They’re comfortable for extended wear and fit true to size (we used the medium). The long gauntlet cuffs are a huge bonus, especially when dealing with tall or climbing plants. The floral print is cute, but the performance is what stood out most—these aren’t just pretty gloves; they’re tough enough for real garden work. Easy to use, they didnt have a smell. Good value for the price.

We live in the dessert and these are a must if you plan to handle cactus/aloe or agave! The quality is really great, they fit amazing, super comfortable and the dexterity you have while wearing these is impressive! I’ve had gloves before were I felt like my fingers couldn’t move properly but these really really great! Highly recommend!!!

I think these gloves are a great value given their durability, performance, and much lower price in comparison to similar gloves.They've helped me get a ton of work done without any delays caused by inadequate hand and forearm protection. I'm now considering buying a 2nd pair because I'm worried I'm going wear out my current ones. I honestly did not expect these to hold up so well. I'm well ahead of schedule with all the outdoor work I have planned. I'd hate to have to slow down to wait for a replacement should these gloves finally give out before I'm done.So far, these gloves have worked extremely well to protect my hands and forearms from thorns, splinters, scratches, bug bites, dirt, debri, rust, contact with filthy items, and even a bite from a random chicken. I've already used them to clear a ton of overgrown blackberry vines and a massive pile of brush comprised of tree limbs, sharp sticks, pine needles, pieces of wire fencing, old splintery wood, rotted fence posts with rusty nails and other metal pieces, thorny vines, extremely tough and wiry vines, various organic matter left by ferral chickens and cats, messy spider webs, random trash, etc. I cleared all of these things by hand, using only hand tools (i.e., shears, loppers, pruning saws, machete, rakes; no power tools or machinery).I only got pricked thru the gloves twice during all of that work! The first time was because I had an excessively tight grip on a bundle of thick and dangerously thorny blackberry vines. (I got overly confident after being so well-protected by these gloves.) Still, that one prick wasn't enough to draw blood or even leave a mark on my skin. It didn't even really hurt. The thorn poked just enough to startle me. The second incident occured when a tiny splinter managed to find its way thru along a seam where one glove was beginning to wear down from repeated friction from using my hand tools. I didn't experience any more issues like this despite carrying on with the same kind of work and handling the same kind of materials over the next few days. (I think it was a very rare incident where the perfectly sized splinter lodged into the perfect spot on my glove at a perfect angle with the perfect amount of pressure. Otherwise, the seams on the gloves don't seem to create any vulnerable spots.)I haven't noticed any issues with thorns or splinters sticking onto the outer surface of the gloves. I saw a few stray thorns/splinters that looked like they lightly caught on, but I could easily shake or brush them off without removing my gloves or any special tools. Some very strong thorns have left visible scratch marks on the surface of the gloves, but no serious scratches.I've been cleaning these gloves by using one gloved hand to brush off the other before taking them off. And by occassionally slapping them against a smooth hard surface to knock off more stubborn dirt/debri. I used a soft boot cleaning brush to remove caked on dirt a couple times. This was after I accidentally left the dirtied gloves outside during light rainfall, causing the dirt to be slightly caked on once dry. Otherwise, I've just been making sure to remove as much loose dirt/debri as possible before throwing them on a shelf in my utility room or in the back of my vehicle. (Basically, I've just been trying to avoid leaving them in very extreme environments when not in use.) I haven't bothered trying to wash them. I haven't really done anything special to maintain them. I've never tried using them while they were very damp or wet. I have used them to handle damp soil and other damp/wet items. And they have been covered in wet grass for an hour or so. No moisture seemed to seep thru in those cases. As far as I can tell, the gloves haven't warped in any way, even after I left them outside in the light rain and for half a day in direct sunlight two times.Durability is surprisingly great. I've used the gloves maybe 10 times now for very long periods (3-5 hrs) to complete very rough tasks. Mostly to clear out a yard and alleyway that have been used as dumping grounds for various debri for the past 2 yrs. I've also used the gloves many more times for much easier tasks, like general yard maitenance and repairing a very old wooden privacy fence.I got a size medium. I never tried a small or large for comparison, but I'm certain the size medium is the best fit for me. Based on how the medium fits, I can tell my fingers would not fit into the lengths of a smaller size. Most of my local stores only sell rugged gloves like these in a size large and above. Large has always been way too big for me.Personal info for sizing reference: I'm an average-sized, slightly athletic female. 5'6 in ht, not too slim, but not overweight. If I hold out my hands so that my palms are flat and fingers are straight and loosely together, the width of my palm (just below my four fingers) is just under 3.25 inches. The widest point below my thumb (at the base of the thumb, edge of the bony knuckle area, and across the palm) is a little more than 3.75 inches wide. The length of my middle finger is just under 3.25 inches. Size small hospital/disposable nitrile gloves fit perfectly snug on my hands like second skin with absolutely no looseness, but no restriction of blood circulation... a size medium fits a bit loose all over, but are much easier to put on, are snug enough too not easily slip off, and are practical for most tasks that don't require a skin-tight fit.The size medium of these gloves fit great. At first, I thought the finger lengths were a tad too short, but just tolerable enough. After breaking the gloves in some, they fit better. The crevices between the fingers do not lay right against my skin (but come pretty close), which is actually ideal. This prevents me from getting blisters or friction sores in those areas. The gloves cover the majority of my forearms. When I need extra arm protection, I just wear a rugged long sleeved top. There's enough room to tuck the sleeves into the gloves.Dexterity is great for gloves that offer such great protection and ruggedness. The inside isn't lined. But sweat and friction haven't been problems. I can still maintain a good grip on items when my hands are sweaty. The material is tough, but not so tough and firm that your hands feel fatigued just from having to grab things. (They do feel a bit fatiguing at first, but that goes away once the gloves are broken in.) Don't expect to be able to write a neat letter while wearing these. But you should be able to grab most small tools just fine. After breaking these in, I'm able to grab and use a slim screw driver. I can't sort thru a tiny box of screws, but that's to be expected. The material is thick, which may make it difficult for people with larger hands to slip their fingers in the looped handles of small gardening shears and what not. It's a tight fit when I use my smallest shears, but not so difficult or uncomfortable that I care to remove the gloves just to use them. The gloves are very easy to put on and take off quickly if needed, though.I bought similar gloves last year that costed double what I paid for these. Given the price, material, looks, and feel of them, I thought those would be the best I'd ever be able to find within my budget. They were so disappointing. I constantly had to take time outs due to getting badly pricked/scratched or to remove tiny splinters with a tweezer. I ended up buying much larger gloves to wear over those ones just to remove a smaller patch of blackberries than the ones I tackled with these gloves. These gloves put the other ones to shame. Well worth the money. Even if they start to wear out before I complete my yard restoration plans, they're affordable enough to replace. And they really have allowed me to get ahead of my schedule. If they do wear out, I highly doubt they'll be worn to the point that I can't keep them for easier tasks.
