I'm not sure if I've proven all the hype about this new product or not. Ironclad makes a heck of a product.But, to use these gloves and get theGripTec Advantage, the 3M GripTec stuff has to be on your tool also. So, you have the expense of the gloves AND an additional outlay to equip all your hammers, etc (I use hammers as an example because that seems to be the target of utilizing this product according to all the advertising).

What this product does do:
You do get a better grip on tool handles. 300% I don't know though.
There is some relief from vibration ie smacking a hammer on a nail.
This DOES help turning screwdrivers. Just make sure the tool surface is TOTALLY oil and dirt free when applying the GripTec to it.
What I'm unsure that this product does:
I don't suffer from Carpenter's Elbow which this product is suppose to relieve. My hand doesn't feel as fatigued at the end of a hammering session though (another claim of the product).
This would get REALLY expensive to apply to every tool in your arsenal as a say an auto mechanic. Screwdrivers, wrenches, etc
I suspect that any "nailbender" who's been around awhile has already ruined elbows. I don't think this product corrects any previous damage.

Ironclad makes quality products. I just don't know YET if the extra money is worth it or if this is another gimmick.

So far though, other than my concerns above, I'm happy with this product. It grips, and it protects your hands like a regular everyday glove.

These gloves hold up well for me and the dexterity is surprisingly good. The griptex surface is a bonus.

IRONCLAD ? WHAT ELSE DO YOU NEED TO SAY .... THE ONLY GLOVES MY MEN WILL WEAR.
