Ironclad MFI-05-XL Mach-5 Vibration Impact Gloves, Extra Large

I can't say enough about how pleased I am with these gloves. I had some initial reservations, during the first month, because every other pair of work gloves I've purchased have inevitably fallen apart on me, but I've had these for maybe a year now, and they barely show any signs of wear.There are several things I really enjoy about these gloves, with the fit being a major part of it. They fit perfectly, and comfortably, on my hands. The finger cutouts allow me to have a good deal of dexterity, and they are cut to the right length such as that it doesn't impair the curling of my fingers. The velcro strap around the wrist also keeps it tight and snug on my hand while I'm working.They are a good mix of insulation and ventilation, as well. I occasionally have to go into a large walk in freezer, and they keep my hands quite warm, even with the exposed fingertips. Despite this, they also breathe well enough that I've had no problems wearing them in the summer heat.In terms of durability, they have far outstripped any other gloves I've owned. I had all but about given up after my last pair of gloves; a pair of leather mechanix gloves, fell apart on me after just a month. I've had these for around a year, I guess, and they show very little signs of wear and tear. I fully expect them to last another two years, even with constant use.If you want a good return on your investment, for a reasonably priced yet comfortable glove, give these a shot. I won't say Ironclad gloves can't be beat, but I'll say that I'd be very surprised if you can find one of better quality for anywhere near the same money.

These are pretty good gloves. I use them in automotive work. I like that they are fingerless, so it can allow a lot more dexterity in your finger tips when trying to handle nuts and bolts, still offer protection for your hands when needed.

I do quite a bit of chainsaw work up in trees and these gloves allow me to work with my fingers and yet still protect my hands. The anti-vibration pads are not too big and do provide some relief from the vibrations of the chainsaw. The pull tabs on the fingers are not very durable, but otherwise, these gloves hold up well.

Great multi-use hand protection, I wear them all day long. I run a custom-design woodshopthat specializes in reclaimed materials, so I am constantly battling tiny splinters from old barnwood. Was looking for something comfortable to protect my hands but still give me freedom ofmotion for day-long detail work, and these are perfect. Knuckle guards on the middle 2 fingers are addedbonus & don't impede movement. Gel on the palms is thin enuf not to notice, may as well havethe padding for sanding if you do a lot ( I do). All the gloves for sale at the lumber yards here are geared for men only and were too large. Ordered theseIn the medium which fit perfectly. I also have a pair of framing gloves from the same companythat are excellent for outside work. Great products.

I bought these to protect my hands while using my lawnmower & trimmer which cause my hands to go numb after 30 minutes. These do not provide vibration protection any more than plain leather gloves. I switch back to my 10 year old cycling gloves and they are better.

This glove is okay for light duty vibration, maybe like a lawn mower, but it does not give me enough protection for the thumb. Superior makes heavier duty protection in similar gloves.

Just used these last week when mowing the lawn and chain sawing down some big hedge. I like the open finger type gloves and these seem to have worked well for the first try. My hand was starting to hurt in the palm at one of my joints and having used these did the trick. The joint didn't swell and actually seem to be down a little. I ordered a couple of different full finger version, will see how they compare, but I like the tactile feedback on the open fingers for most work. They have a lot of padding, but the other gloves I ordered actual meet the standards (two of them) for Anti-Vibration were this pair is not rated.

I purchased these Ironclad MFI-04-L Mach-5 Vibration Impact Gloves because I was using a hammer and a cleat nailer to install a very hard hardwood floor and my hands were hurting after the first day. I put these gloves on, and they made a huge difference. Not only did my hands not hurt anymore, but I could work a little longer. My hands also stopped cramping up. I now wear them all day long when I am sawing, hammering, lifting, etc. The next best part is that the fingers are left exposed so I can pick up nails, screws, and other tiny objects. These gloves far surpass the "heavy duty" leather work gloves I had been using for years. These fit like a glove, don't slip off because of the velcro wrist band, and are very compact ... not bulky. Yes they are expensive, but worth every penny, and are cheaper on Amazon than locally. I would rate these 5 of 5 stars.
