Heavy-duty Rescue Extrication Glove EN388:2016 Certification, Super Dexterity and Ultra Durability

I purchased these gloves a couple of months ago out-of-pocket because I wanted the good stuff and not necessarily what would be issued to me by the Fire Department. I have used them in training a few times and for other tasks, like station beautification duties, using rakes and shovels. Just recently, we had a really nasty extrication job after a multi-car collision that lasted about 40 minutes from arrival to placing the patient in the ambulance and we practically had to cut left half of a mid-2000s GMC Yukon into pieces. The entire team of 6 firefighters was using all available tools, working to cut and spread, and I made a few Holmatro cuts to remove a door before jumping into the back of the vehicle to be with the patient and figure out how to get the back of the driver seat removed. The vehicle appeared to be a live-in SUV with a bunch of tools and other stuff scattered around. The guy just went shopping and there was broken grocery glass all over as well. I was grabbing everything and moving it to make room for myself, as well as grabbing ahold of jagged edges of the vehicle while the team outside made more cuts. I had full confidence in these gloves and they didn't disappoint. The (patients) blood even washed out of the palms fairly easily.I would definitely buy another pair when the time comes. I would suggest buying a size larger than you usually wear as they seem to run small (I exchanged larges for XL) and wear them doing other tasks before you need them on scene to break them in, as they are a bit stiff with a hindrance on dexterity out of the package. After they soften up, they are fantastic.

Reinforced knuckles, durable palm. Only thing I would change is make an insulated pair for winter.

This gloves are super warm and comfortable. I work outside in the cold and rain. These are the first set of gloves that actually keep my hands warm and protected! I’m able to move my hands as if I didn’t even have em on! Worth all the money!

Cacti thorns still go thru the palm.. very duarable otherwise

I am going to be honest, I'm actually surprised how well these gloves have performed in tha last weeks of being purchased. I have big hands and ordered the xl, they fit but I think to line up with my palm correctly I needed to order 2xl. I work for a demolition company and wanted gloves that would protect me from getting punctured and cut, which has held up nicely so far.The only downside I'd say is that after two weeks they have shown so pretty quick abrasion wear down already on the tips of the fingers and if grabbing objects that are wet or oily they don't provide great grip since fingers and palm are smooth.Overall very happy with purchase, keeps hands safe from impact damage, punctures, and cuts at least with all the crazy demolition I do at work. I'll give an update after a couple of months! Thank you.Update:The seems start to come out after some time especially if your dealing with the sharp chicken wire behind stucco. Been demoing different walls with this kind of wire behind it and it has held up keeping me safe from getting cuts or having my hands punctured with some nasty metal but as mentioned seems start to come undone pretty fast with this type of jobs after 3 months.Worth the money for protection, but I'd switch in and out of gloves to save them from wearing out. Obviously nothing is eternal but they did wonders dealing with a crazy 3 months of hard hand demolition!

I wanted to give these gloves a fair review because many of the previous gloves I've tried performed so poorly so I've waited a while before writing this. First of all unlike many gloves the lining of the glove doesn't get pulled out with your hand which is pretty crucial when you have to frequently remove them. I have a job that is pretty aggressive toward gloves and a week and a half in and they've got very little wear to them. My hands stay 100% dry which is a huge plus when the liquid I'm dealing with on the other side contains very aggressive acids and alkalines mixed with water. I am a pickler and those chemicals are soaked in the very abrasive nylon ropes I've handled easily over 1000 times since I've began using these gloves. They've stood up to that beating which has shredded so many gloves previously. I'm honestly curious to see how long my first pair lasts but I felt they are superior enough that I've ordered a second pair to have when that does happen. So far I'm a very happy customer. They are very comfortable and they don't hinder my ability to handle the remote for the crane I operate. Awesome product.

Very well made, fit great. For heavier work, not for wearing whilst repairing watches :-) Very happy with my purchase. Shipped quickly

Not bad still get some fiberglass splinters id say a 95% reduction but its good wish it was waterproof like advertised
