Cheap by comparison to cheap, not so good, gloves from the likes of Screwfix, Tool Station etc. A coupon from Toolsatan for a free pair of gloves arrived the other week, just as I was leaving to buy stuff from them anyway, I thought I might as well try a pair, so I shoved them the coupon and asked for size XL http://toolstation.com/shop/p58020 Sorry mate you'd have to buy those, you can only have size L for free, can't get them on even at a pinch. |
