"good protection from thorns so far" star star star star star This review is for an older version of this product these have protected me well so far when cutting back the vicious prickly thicket from next door and for that they deserve 5 stars. there are 2 gripes though ;firstly sizing-i had to get the gents size because the ladies were too small (i buy medium size washing up gloves so my hands arent that big)and secondly the colour isn't really practical, a dark colour would cope better when i'm dealing with wet soil etc support_agent A note from the team Thanks for placing your review.
