Alternatives
- Leather gloves— Best for heat and heavy abrasion; less dexterity.
- Nitrile gloves— For grime and fluids, not mechanical protection.
Maintenance notes
- Dry them out after wet or cold work.
Buying considerations
- Fit drives dexterity — too big is nearly useless.
- Cut-resistant models suit recovery and rescue work.
