what work gloves are you guys wearing? need new ones
>>2949303i go through a pair every 3 weeks or a month doing fab work. the index finger and thumb inevitably get burnt out. had been buying the wells lamount at $14/pr but theyre not great and made in the orient. so i gave the $5 buck chinkshitexpress ones a try and theyre solid. heavier made the the wells shit so im going to stick with themif im doing primary welding i like the tillman 1464 with the doubled index and thumb
>>2949315I've been using a pair of Trust gloves and like them so far. Trust is run by the guy who used to own Tillman until a few years ago when it got bought out by private equity and started going downhill, and they're pretty reasonably priced.
>>2949320that website is dogshit and doesnt give a link to any dealers3072 looks the same as tillman 1464 but the only place online had tbe non kevlar stitched 3070 at $28+tip. thats over double what im paying for 1464xl by the case
>>2949315I used to buy Wells Lamont from Wal-mart and was constantly going through them. Hell one pair I bought late one night, went and used the hell out of them the next day and completely burned up every stitch in the entire index finger and thumb on both gloves. Took them back that night for a refund because it was bullshit that they didn't even last 24 hours. I WAS doing some serious welding, but come on man... >>2949321I started buying Tillmann 1420's and had good luck with them. But they're getting up there in price these days. Tried the split hide Tillmann's but they're kinda shit. The stitching is real weak and a guy can completely blow out a thumb and index finger real quick. Bought these Kevlar stitched Black Stallion brand gloves from cyberweld at $3.85 a pair. Got 50 pairs of them. They're awesome and have held up as well as the Tillmann 1420's and probably even better. I do still have to re-stitch the thumb and index finger after a lot of welding and fencing, but they're holding up much better than anything else I've ever used before. Can't beat the price either...https://store.cyberweld.com/collections/welding-gloves/products/black-stallion-drivers-gloves-grain-cowhide-palm-split-back-87k
>>2949315Get a leather stitching awl and keep those babies going 4-5x as long...
>>2949303I love Kinco. Own a couple of pairs for snowboarding.
>>2949321Yeah the site sucks. My local welding/gas supplier carries them (OXARC if you happen to be in OR/ID), might be one in your area too but IDK.
Can anybody recommend an alternative to these? They're the only work gloves I've ever found that I like but they're outrageously expensive now. Doesn't help that I've got small hands and they're just about the only gloves of their type that I can ever find in stock in Medium size.
>>2949303If you need to wear gloves then you need to work on toughening your hands up instead so you can use your hands as god intended.
>>2949450t. retard
>>2949450God had no clue we'd invent welding and engines. He specialized in particle physics and love. He knows virtually NOTHING about timing belts, tig welding, or epoxy.
>>2949468God knew we'd invent gloves.
>>2949482God knew we'd invent dildo and anal beads and weed and MDMA. A total pervert.
I get these cheap Wells Lamont gloves whenever I find them on sale. Got the pair on the left from an Atwoods a few months back for $2-3. Mostly using them for prescribed fire, but I also usually them for the occasional barbed wire work or clearing green briar thickets.
>>2949303What kind of work? Welding (heat)? Chemical/oil resistance? Handling lumber?
>>2949468God knew that women prefer men with working hands. Show a woman a pair of weathered hands with scars and wounds from years of labor and it's an instant VIP all access pass into her pants
>>2949303Depends what I am doing. For welding I use special welding gloves, when taking out the ash I use leather gloves, for the most other tasks I don't use gloves since they can smell and I hate having smelly hands.
>>2949542based no gloves battler still living somehow. That pussy must be potent spirit mana
>>2949303yep winter is coming up. i get a pack of these every season for work my hands sweat easy so for me anything thicker makes my hands moister and colder. on the coldest days i double up on them. my job gets people refridgeawear brand but they are too much for me
>>2949303>what work gloves are you guys wearingNone, considering I was born with a pair of balls. I earned my tough palms and callouses by working for a living like a real man. Anytime someone shows up at my jobsite with a pair of gloves we all laugh at him and bully him mercilessly until he takes them off. If you're a pussy who wears work gloves just make sure they match your purse.
Wells lamont seems to be the best brand, i like the "hydrahide" line, it doesn't get all stiff when washed. I've been using the same pair of their leather work gloves for like 2 years and no seams have broken.
