They are the standard you see used on building sites round here that
enforce H&S. One pair with me survived cutting out a large hole in a
brick wall for a bigger window and all the associated re-building so
certainly not a too big expense.


I might have to give 'em a go. Handling sandstone and limestone lumps
non-stop for a few hours is quite hard on gloves.


I use them for 'our' rigging work too - much better than the leather
ones.


I use a cheap pair of gardening gloves but in the wet you do end up with
damp hands. I can see these dipped things been better at being water
proof and easier to clean the **** (literally) off.


They're also cheaper - if you buy them at the right place - than most
gardening gloves. So a win win situation as our pal dribble would say.
