Almost tempted to buy a pair to see if they can stop a round.

HINT: Do not try this with the glove on your hand.
I just might give 100:1 odds against their stopping a .22 short, more
for real rounds. The thread and weave are much coarser than are used
in bulletproof vests.


I hate buying gloves. Always seems one finger or more isn't sewn correctly.

Yeah, and when you're lifting heavy loads or pulling hand over fist,
those lumps between the fingers can get mighty painful.
