Burgon & Ball Men's Gardening Gloves Gardening Gloves (pack of 1)

Haven't tried them yet, but hubby already has a pair of the same make gloves, which have served him well

I agree with other reviewers - these come up small. I ordered a size up which just about fitted, so borderline needed two sizes up. They look and feel good quality.

I thought tweed is a rather odd choice for gardening gloves but can’t deny that they look much better than your average rubber gardening glove. I’ve used these for about two months, at first to repot indoor & greenhouse plants and in the last weeks moved into the garden when it’s not raining to get it ready for spring. While they are somewhat water resistant, water does eventually penetrate the material after prolonged exposure, which is to be expected considering they’re fabric and not rubber. Not enough to say that these gloves are sunny/dry/dewless gardening gloves only, as I will use them even if the ground is wet, but I do recognise that they are still quite new and the water resistance properties at their peak. I wear a size 10 motorcycle glove and the medium/large size of these were a good fit. Slightly snug at first but they broke in and conformed to the shape of my hands pretty quick. The palms/fingers are well padded with some soft imitation(?) leather. The padding is also a reasonable size to give you maximum comfort while still being able to feel what you are doing. Very comfortable and not too sweaty either. No complaints in that department. They do get dirty quite easily but that’s not exactly a surprise when gardening. Unsure how well they will hold up against repeated exposure to brambles and other thorny shrubs as the thorns can and do mark the gloves. But so far so good; they’re holding up well, no obvious deterioration of the material/stitching other than cosmetic, and nothing has spiked me yet. Does the job and I will most definitely be getting another pair after these wear out.

Purchased these as I wanted gloves that were comfortable and lasting. They are a snug fit - I ordered medium and they’re quite tight (I don’t have particularly large hands). They also look decent

Nice gloves but only a large. Definitely not L/XL! Dissapaointed as they were a gift bit have kept them to myself now.

I love these gloves. They are robust enough for the rough work of gardening, but still allow for some sensitivity in the fingers. Other reviewers have commented that they come up small and I agree. I have a small to medium sized hand and these M/L sized gloves fit perfectly, but they need to be eased onto my hand because they are snug across the wide part of the palm as you pull them on. Perfactly comfortable once on, however, and I think it's something that will ease with use.

These certainly look the part and fit very well but that is as far as it goes. As soon as you use them for thistles or anything remotely prickly, you will have no protection whatsoever. Even nettles find a way through and your fingers will get stung. The stitching is also of very poor quality - the finger seams tend to go very quickly. Such a shame.

Good fit. Quality seems good but time will tell after long use in garden
