RAPICCA Animal Handling Gloves, Bite Proof Double Leather, 16 in Grey-Black

These are an absolute must for the avid animal trapper and feral cat handler. I have been bitten by the best of the feral cats and I only ever felt slight pressure. Never a puncture to the skin or any damage to the gloves themselves. They are a bit cumbersome for fine work or where you would need dexterity. But the comfort of knowing you are protected is worth the trade off. I actually have three pairs: two 22 inch and one 16.

My chihuahua has doggy dementia which causes him to be periodically aggressive. These gloves allow me to handle & pet him without the fear of a bite. I'm extremely thankful for the gloves. They're nice & thick. I could feel slight pressure but that was it. I'm very impressed by how well made this product is. They're comfortable to wear but a little too big for my hands but I can make them work. The material feels like leather & suede, very nice!

These heavy duty gloves helped my friend pick up her dog was uncontrollable for some unknown reason. These covers the hands and almost up to the elbow. If you have animals or farm work, These are great. My friend used it once and gave them away as they were heavy for her skinny and small hands. I was impressed with the quality of the glives.

Thick as advertised. Fingers are a little more bulky than similar brands yet I have small hands and needed another pair at reasonable price.

I bought these 16” animal handling gloves to use in my home dog boarding / daycare business. Thankfully I haven’t had to use them yet, but I like having them ‘just in case’. I think luck favors the prepared. I ordered a few different animal handling gloves and settled on these. I like the thickness of the leather and the placement of the extra layers of leather. For a female 5’5” and 125 lbs, these fit quite big. However they are comfortable and stay on. I feel protected in them. Some other ones I ordered that were smaller for my hands didn’t have as thick of leather or the extra layers of leather at as many places or good places. I would never be able to do fine work with my fingers in these as they are bulky. However I would be able to grab or pick up a small dog or guarded object with them. I think they would protect from a bite from a small dog, medium dog, and warning nips from a large dog. However the bite force of a medium or large dog that means business would still crush your hands, just maybe not be able to rip you open due to the thick leather. I would guarantee that they would hold up to small animals like cats, hamsters, squirrels, birds, etc. Hopefully I NEVER need to test a snake bite on them!!! They appear well made with the stitching with thick but slightly flexible leather. The value is good as I believe they will last many many years used for various tasks like animal handling, grilling, and forging … probably my son will eventually steal them to forge with once he discovers them.

Very effective for raccoon bites. These fit my large hands very well and provided adequate forearm protection. Adult raccoons are very scrappy and it's almost impossible to wrestle them without them getting in some bites. These gloves took maybe half a dozen very energetic bites on the fingers without breaking the skin or bruising, and provided more padding than my harbor freight welding gloves, which I had used previously. I would recommend them, definitely. I didn't manage to get a photo of the raccoon actually clamped onto the gloves, but here it is making an effort before the tussle. You'll still feel the teeth but it's better than any other gloves I've used.

Okay, so these gloves are pretty freaking good 😂 I guess I’ll put these to the test. I have a Gila monster that is really nasty and aggressive in the cage, and these gloves took his bite with no issues or harm to me.

These gloves are easy to use and of great quality! The appearance is of a sturdy glove that can handle bites and scratches. I am not aware of the capacity of the heat resistance, because I only use them to groom my pets. Great buy for pet grooming of dogs and cats.

me gusto el producto, sirve para lo que los compre, yo los uso para manipular pericos y aun se siente un poco la mordida del animalito pero almenos ya no me arrancan pedazos

Game changer! No more biting finally, I can play safely with my 3-month-old puppy.

Il mio gatto non è riuscito a stellari vivo, quindi li consiglio vivamente.

10/10. Without these gloves I would have no skin on my hands, fingers; or arms. Like literally these gloves are amazing. They are without a shadow of doubt the best thing I ever bought. Once upon a time, I tried trimming my cats nails, she hated it. No matter what conditioning I tried to do, treats, calm, one by one, slow and steady, nothing worked. My arms would bleed, my fingers trapped in her claws. Her bunny kicks would deliver the final blow, and I’d have to give up. My hands and arms would look like a mommy. Then I got these gloves, my parents laughed at me for buying falcon gloves, but I knew, they would save my skin (literally). Now, she still kicks, bites, scratches, hisses, growls and looks at me like I killed 9 generations of her kin. But at least I can trim, 3-4 nails on a bad day, and 8-9 on a good day. All while without getting a single scratch on my arms. And she is one happy kitty after getting treats. They are thick, fit big enough but small enough to not fall off, they are so durable and are great quality. Some people use it for wildlife, I use it for a rescued domestic 4kg white short hair cat who hates her nails trimmed.

Essa luva é fantástica! Vi várias aqui no Brasil, mas nenhuma me parecida boa o suficiente. Meu marido e eu somos veterinários e manejamos animais que nos trazem risco. Com essa luva temos muito mais segurança para executar nosso trabalho. Recomendamos com certeza!
