The gloves were inexpensive, comfortable, and attractive, but ripped the third time I wore them. I do some heavy gardening, and while these gloves would protect the hands of someone doing lightweight gardening chores and pruning, they are not strong enough to handle harder chores such as transplanting an established plant. Also, the material they are made from does not breathe, and in the humid South (even in our lower humidity winters), my hands sweat profusely, dampening the leather palms from the inside out. These are a good purchase for a gardener who needs protection from thorns, brambles, etc. and whose gardening chores are minimal. For someone who needs to protect hard-working hands in the garden, these are a poor choice.

I bought these gloves to wear to protect my hands and arms while working in my rose beds. It is advertised that the gloves would protect your hands from rose thorns. Well they don't!! These gloves are just a little thicker than what I wear to wash my dishes, but with an added thin layer of leather on the palm. The gloves are great for pulling weeds without thorns, but don't expect them to protect your hands or arms from anything sharp or thorny. I got as many thorns in my hands and arms while wearing these gloves, as I did when I worked in my cheep grocery store garden gloves.

powerhouse gloves....I got these at the start of growing season, and they work great. By now I am usually getting a replacement pair from wear of the bargain kind at the garden centre, these are still doing great. Having the banded cuffs keep garden junk from getting down in the fingers of the gloves as you work and that is a big plus. High recommend them!!!!!

My wife loves these gloves!
Long enough to guard your for arms
No thorns get through!
She loves them
