Cow leather, with a reinforced patch across the palm where the grip and the wear happen.

Small, medium, large and extra large.

Measure across your palm with the knuckles excluded and use the size guide, rather than going by your usual glove size, which varies a lot between makers.

They are good quality leather work gloves, not certified cut resistant protective equipment. Leather gives real protection against a sharp edge dragging across it, but anything genuinely hazardous needs gloves rated and marked for that use.

Because a lot of edging is metal. Cut ends, weathered corten and spikes being struck all want leather between them and your hand. Fabric gloves are fine for weeding and wrong for this.

No. Leather breathes, which is why it is comfortable, and that means it is not waterproof.

Yes, briefly. A few hours of use softens them and they stay comfortable after that.

Do not. Leather that has been soaked and then dried quickly goes hard and stays hard. Just wear them.

Let the soil dry and knock or brush it off. Avoid soaking them.

No. A machine will ruin leather gloves.

Dry them slowly at room temperature, away from radiators and direct sun. Fast heat is what turns leather to cardboard.

Yes, the price is for a pair.

Leather is naturally breathable and absorbs sweat, which is why it stays wearable for hours where a coated glove does not.

Leather is far better than fabric against thorns and it is a common reason people buy it. It is not a guarantee against a determined thorn.

Yes. Yard work, fencing, landscaping, carpentry, stonework and general handling are all normal uses for a leather work glove.

For general rose work, yes. For heavy bramble clearance a longer gauntlet that protects the forearm is the better choice.

Leather can tighten slightly if it is soaked and dried fast, which is another reason to dry them slowly.

With ordinary garden use and reasonable care, a season or several. The reinforced palm is what extends it, because that is where work gloves always fail first.

That is exactly what they are here for. Cut ends on steel edging are sharp and corten is rough on bare hands.

Yes. You hold the spike with one hand and swing the mallet with the other, and leather gives you both the grip and the protection for that.

They are leather work gloves with a reinforced palm. They are not insulated winter gloves.

Leather blocks wind well, which helps, but they are work gloves rather than thermal gloves.

Yes, each size is a separate item, so add whichever sizes you need to the cart.

They are a stock item and carry the full right to change your mind, extended to 15 days from delivery, provided they come back unused and in resaleable condition.

Send your order number and a photograph and we will replace them or refund you, and we cover the return postage.

Free across Europe on orders of €60 or more, and a flat €22 below that. Most people add gloves to an edging order where delivery is already free.

For an edging job, gloves, a mallet and a kneeling pad are the three things people wish they had bought at the same time as the edging.

A leather conditioner extends their life, particularly if they have been wet. Apply it sparingly to dry gloves.

Yes. The four sizes cover most hands, which is why we stock the range rather than a single size.

No coating. Grip comes from the reinforced leather palm patch, which does not peel the way a coated palm eventually does.
