Good pair of gloves needed

[mbergeon]

Does it have to be leather? Tell ya, atlas thermal fits are hard to beat, outlast any leather gloves I have bought, much cheaper and warmer, great grip even when wet. I do all outside various farm work for a living, tell ya, best work gloves I have ever tried.

Truth. I wear those too.

Pics?

I wear the grey thermal atlas in the winter:

$36 a dozen

And black thin the rest of the year (even work good for wrenching)

Ordered these a couple of days ago, will see how they do handling wood.

I'm convinced, the Atlas Thermal Fit are better than the leather gloves I've been using. The leather fingers wore through really fast, I used the Atlas for two days splitting and stacking wood, nary a blemish. They really grip well and the coating is tough. Glad I was pointed to them.

But how are they with thorny stuff?

I was cuttin today and had to cut some briars and I did get pricked, same as leather gloves with holes in the fingers.

Actually they did ok with briars where the covering is, but the knit part let the thorns through.

I've had good luck with the atlas gloves too. The standard white and grey for warmer weather and the black for colder weather. Great grip and fit, but for COLD I personally wouldn't wear any of them below about 20*. I've got a pair of slip on mechanics that have held up to sawing, fencing, HCl, working cows, and a bunch of other little chores. Up north and when it gets cold here kincos work well, and I've also got a pair of blue tillmans that held up ok.
