Mechanic Gloves For Working On Cars - Work Safety Gloves Protect Fingers And Hands (XL)

I’ve been working on cars both on a professional level and now home hobby for over 45 years and have tried many different brands of protective clothing including gloves.These gloves exceeded my expectations given their price point, a snug fit initially but formed nicely after a bit of use and still intact after completing a clutch renewal. Many well known branded gloves split around the finger seams when presented with sharp edges, these gloves are still looking like new and showing no signs of splitting and look like they will outlive my other branded gloves by far.I’ll be buying these again for sure.

These gloves feel pretty good, used them today for some maintenance on my van. The finger tips are very grippy and there is some simple padding on the palms and knuckles. The sizing is generous large, I take a size 9 glove which is more often than not a large and the Mechanic Gloves are pretty much of this size, perhaps a wee bit bigger. I found the wrist securing tab to be a little short of velcro, there is just a small patch of velcro that must be aligned to the velcro on the glove so it doesn't give much scope for altering the fit around the wrist. It would be better to have a longer velcro fastening to enable to wearer to really get some closure around the wrists. The gloves are fairly lightweight...not suitable for handling thorny things in the garden but they offer a decent alternative to the disposable latex gloves for car maintenance. We have a huge number of false widow spiders where we live and all of our vehicles are infested with them....these gloves give me a certain peace of mind when sticking my fingers behind panels or under the bonnet. The gloves are wearing well despite heavy use, all the stitching is double stitched and show no sign of failing....and the finger tips work on a touch sensitive phone screen! Well happy. Couple of months on and the gloves have exceeded my expectations with very heavy use, no stitching coming loose, no scuffs or fraying, these are great gloves for manual work...the finger tips are grippy. Excellent! Knocked a star off for size issues, being limited to one size is a shame, the gloves are a bit too big...they would be perfect if they were tighter. They also wash well....very impressed! If you do a lot of rough work you simply won't want to take these off! 2 yrs later they're still as good as when I bought them...amazing!

I've just ordered a different brand to replace these gloves, but I'd still thoroughly recommend them. I've had two pairs, the first lasted a couple of years, and the second lasted about a year. I used them for everything around the house, occasional car maintenance, working in the garden and fairly heavy duty DIY stuff. Both pairs gave up and split on the thumb eventually, but for the price I still think these are excellent value.The only reason I'm going with a different make is to find out whether spending twice as much is worth it. If they aren't twice as good then I'll be buying some more of these in the future.

Bought these for general purpose and not specifically for messing with any cars mechanically. The item has great reviews and having previously bought some very expensive gloves in the past (mechanics brand) and feeling let down I thought I would plump for some mid price ones.They are advertised as large with a snug fit but personally I found them a little loose, however certainly not unusable. Due to the small velcro fastening strip they are not really 'adjustable', more that they just fasten (securely I might add).I have given them a good going over and they seem very well made and look like they will last a good length of time but time will tell.The after sales support I have to say is second to none and the seller happily took my feedback regarding the item. Are they worth £9.99? I would say they are yes, and should you be in the market for work gloves (mechanic or not) they you won't go far wrong with this pair.Thanks.

This is the 2nd pair Iv bought, the fingers ripped out into holes in my first pair but that was my fault because I was wearing them when I was putting up barbed wire fence, they were so comfy I didnt want to take them off.hahaI was surprised how easy it is to pick up tiny screws and nails and things like that when wearing them too.Really nice gloves, I would highly recommend them, but just remember to take them off if you plan to put up a few miles of barbed wire fince.haha

The elastic cuff on one of the gloves came loose sooner than expected, however, I have fat wrists. The gloves themselves feel really sturdy and I’m confident they would protect my hands from the sharp, twisted metal that I encounter in my role as a recovery truck driver.Also, fantastic customer service from the seller who contacted me on the back of my comments about the cuff and made good efforts to rectify the slightly soured experience.I will buy these gloves again and I will use the seller again as a result.

A decent pair of gloves. I take a size M/7.5 in nitrile gloves and these (the medium size) fit perfectly apart from my fingers being a little too short to reach all the way to the ends.A quick test shows that they grip tools very well. Of course, some dexterity is lost as they protect your hands and fingers - I was unable to get 1/4" sockets out of their box with the gloves on, but getting tools out of a tool roll was not a problem. I will not be wearing them for watch repairs or PCB assembly. However, they are definitely superior to rigger gloves for dexterity.The elasticated cuff holds the gloves on well, but not so tightly that they cannot be removed without undoing the velcro fastener.I am very pleased with these gloves, I was intending to leave them in the car for emergencies but I can see them being useful for household maintenance too.
