Ironclad Heavy Utility Work Gloves for X-LARGE, Black & Grey

Ironclad has taken a high-tech approach to glove design, giving hands a new lease on life. Their work gloves are designed to protect workers' hands better than others, without the cumbersome feel that plagues many work gloves. The first thing that stands out about these gloves is their tailored fit, which follows the natural curve of the hand in a resting position, rather than being cut straight. This allows the hand to relax without the glove pulling the fingers in an uncomfortable direction.

The palm of this general-utility glove is made of Amara, a synthetic material that mimics the resilience, grip, and comfort of suede, while remaining machine-washable and water-resistant. High-wear areas are reinforced with tough DuraClad fabric, making these some of the toughest-grip gloves on the market. The fingertips are also reinforced, but this does not compromise dexterity, as the wearer can still easily perform tasks like picking up coins.

The cuff design of these gloves is also noteworthy, as it comes in tight to the wrist, preventing dirt or other materials from entering. Many other work gloves have gaping cuff designs, which is a mystery to the authors. While the gloves themselves won't be damaged by water, they won't keep the hands dry for long in very wet conditions. However, this can be said of most work gloves, and overall, Ironclad gloves are some of the toughest, most comfortable, and easiest-to-work-in gloves the authors have tried.

Ironclad's Heavy Utility HUG-05-XL glove is particularly durable and rugged. This updated version of their most popular glove is even better than before. It is a long-wearing, tough utility glove with amazing tactile feel and dexterity. The knuckle protection and reinforced palm areas are now stronger and more flexible than ever, making this an incredibly tough glove.

Like all other Ironclad gloves, the Heavy Utility HUG-05-XL is completely washable. For best results, it should be machine washed and hung to dry. This glove is ideal for a variety of applications, including construction, material handling, demolition, landscaping, forestry, handling lumber, and cable & wire work.

The glove features a reinforced palm, with Duraclad reinforcement on the saddle, palm, thumb, and covered fingers, providing ultimate durability and increased grip. The thermoplastic rubber knuckle protection offers impact and abrasion protection across the knuckles, ensuring hand safety.

The adjustable hook and loop closure provides a secure, custom fit for optimal performance. Additionally, the terry cloth sweat wipe on the back of the thumb allows the wearer to stay focused on the job at hand by quickly wiping the brow.

Ironclad's commitment to engineered fit is evident in this glove, as with all their offerings. The company's industry-leading flawless fit system defines up to 16 application-driven measurements to provide the best-in-class fit.
