Bellingham Nitrile Tough Glove

These are so hard to find because they keep changing names and brands. This pair ( new pair pictured on the right) seems to be the same product as the ones listed below:Atlas Nitrile Tough 370Showa 370 (old pair pictured on the left)Wonder Grip Cut Resistant Gloves

Tough, and sensitive enough for delicate work. They wear a long time but not forever, so buy a few pair. You will never wear any others.

Great gloves

I never liked to wear gloves --too bulky, too hot.... My daughter got me to try these and I wear them for everything from knife sharpening to planting peas, changing hydraulic fluid, spitting firewood, etc. They fit snug and I have a good feel for what I am touching. They last about four months of moderate to heavy use. They are not puncture proof but they have saved my hands from their usual minor lacerations (and a few significant ones) over the last year.

I and two others used these gloves to climb Half Dome cables - I also ended up wearing mine all day with my trekking poles. Even though I wore them for what felt like forever (from 530am to 930pm), my hands never got sweaty, the gloves didn't wear or stretch out, and my hands were in great shape when we got back to camp. On the cables, I had incredible grip and I could still feel the cable under my hands, so even with the gloves on I had no loss of dexterity. Purchase a smaller size than you think you should - I have large hands and ended up returning the Large (which is my usual size for kitchen gloves) and got a Medium (which fit perfectly). You want the wrist elastic to hold tight, and the palm of the glove should not have extra fabric that bunches up when you close your hand.

I have found these gloves provide good protection against most things in the garden but are thin enough that you have nearly as much finger control to pick things up or use a tool as with no gloves.

Just a great glove for yard work all year long!

These aren't the warmest gloves; however, there is no loss of dexterity compared to "bare" hands. They do keep my hands from chapping but the areas with the nitrile are cold so they're not the best for winter wear. I work outside and these are best for that in-between jacket weather. I do have to replace these gloves rather regularly. They don't hold up well but they are being subjected to rather heavy use with my work. I wear a small in most gloves and its difficult to find anywhere except online.
