John Tillman and Co Tillman Medium Black, Pearl and Gold TrueFit Goatskin and Spandex Full Finger Mechanics Gloves with ElasticHook and Loop Cuff

These gloves are awful. Fit was horrible and the velcro wrist wraps are not very good other than to restrict your movement. I love Tillman gloves especially the drivers since I use them every day at work...(rigger/operator for crane) these though are an embarrassment to the brand. They shredded after the 3rd time I had to run cable through them and seemed of questionable quality. I feel like a pair of Lamonts may have outlasted these things. Mine lasted about 3 weeks but suffered a complete failure when put through a brutal day of switching out main cable.

I go through a pair of gloves a month (if lucky and I stretch it) and get fed up with ones falling apart or wearing through a fingertip after the first hard use. I have tried every single mechanix and other heavy duty glove sold by HD, Lowes, and Ace, this one beats them all. I bought one pair to try out, did masonry demolition that day, sledgehammering and loading concrete chunks. Gloves took a beating and showed a bit of wear but my other gloves would have been shredded to ribbons, even with the fancy rubber guards glued all over them. Fit snugly enough to hold nails and screws easily but still protect the fingertips nicely. Have used for pretty much everything and have really impressed me. Just bought 3 more pairs.

I purchased the John Tillman & Co. 1490L gloves last year as a gift for my husband who farms full time. Over the years he has tried almost every brand of glove out there but this Tillman brand is now his #1 choice. They are slightly stiff straight out of the packaging but he said that only after a few uses, they conformed to his hands and are well-fitted. They are also flexible and have a good grip. He highly recommends them as comfortable, sturdy gloves that hold up well. He was very pleased to see them under the Christmas tree again this year!

I have used these gloves for about 3 weeks, 6 to 8 hours a day 6 days a week. I use the gloves on my land, moving downed limbs/trees, moving large rocks and anything I encounter on my land. The gloves are comfortable but do not hold up to hard work. The stitch in the fingers has broken and the cover leather is flapping. They have not developed a hole all of the way through the leather but I suspect they will in the next few days.I had high expectations but very disappointing.

My wife got me a pair of these, 3 years ago, from a travelling sales truck. I used these gloves heavily, year round. This fall, they were starting to show some wear. One finger tip was worn through. They had faded, and were more yellow/gray, than yellow/white.I found these on Amazon, and thought... WOW! I've won the lottery! Something that I bought, that lasted as long, if not longer than I had supposed, was STILL available! Folks, This kind of stuff just doesn't happen to me!Anyhoo... I've always wanted to say that... Anyhoo, These gloves are durable. They wear in pretty quick. You won't be able to say, pick up a pin, unless you catch the tip of the pin, in the finger tip leather, but you will be able to rappel down a cliff face... if you're into that kind of thing. I use these gloves, during Winter, to keep my hands fairly warm. They aren't weatherproof, and if they get wet, they will no longer be comfortable.Oh, and these gloves were used for putting up, and repairing barbed wire fence, pulling and picking up unwanted vegetation, roofing, and other chores.A good pair of gloves, well worth the price, if the color doesn't dissuade you.

My absolute favorite work gloves. I've purchased a pair every other year for the past 6 or 7 years. After just a few hours of working in them, the leather molds to your hand and it fits "like a glove". The leather on the palms last a long time with the fingers wearing out first (like most leather work gloves). However, this only happens after a satisfyingly long time. The nylon back allows plenty of breathing to keep your hands less sweaty. The only problem here is with welding, sparks will easily burn holes in the back. I don't weld often so it isn't a big deal for me.Overall, love this glove and highly recommend it for anyone looking for a sturdy, reliable work glove.

SO far these gloves have put up with my abuses during weeks of seasonal landscaping at work. The extra padding in the palm really helps reduce vibrations of power equipment, while providing excellent grip as well. About the only thing these gloves are missing is a nice soft patch to wipe the sweat off your brow. Other gloves I have used in the past had this feature and I miss that. Still a 5 star product in my opinion!

I love the look of these, the padding is excellent and they are fairly heat resistant. The seams of the fingers were crooked, the index finger was pointing outwards on the left glove, and the thumb was pointing inward on the left glove. The left glove felt larger than the right. After continuing to adjust the finger and flex to break in, the seams started coming around. Either way, I can tolerate these things even though I would NOT have bought them in a store if I had seen these issues in a store, but it wasn't worth returning them. I will go back to the more expensive Mechanix 4x thickness gloves.
