DULFINE Leather Work Gloves for Men & Women, Reinforced Durable Gardening Gloves,Cowhide Work Gloves,Puncture & Cut Resistant

I have thin long fingers and was concerned that Medium might not fit as I normally buy Large gloves. I took a chance on the Medium and glad I did. Very comfortable fit and finger length is ideal for me. These are much sturdier gloves than the cheaper brands I've purchased which always seem to wear out withing one or two gardening days of use. So I'll update my review after a couple months relating to long term wear. So far, very pleased with the purchase relating to fit, quality of leather and comfort

Exactly what is advertised! True to size. Basic, inexpensive gloves. Good quality and soft but durable. Very good for the money.

Great product. They're leather and they fit, and for a much better price than the box stores.

Quality work gloves. Good thickness, very durable, correct fit. Protects against the nasty goat heads!

The gloves are tight to put on but once on they are comfortable. They feel very durable

Very good quality leather. Comfortable and good fitting.

Solid gloves, durable, quite water resistant, they do the job and have good dexterity

I read wildly differing reviews of these gloves and took a chance. It's hard to know what size to order when some say they run small, some say they run large, and they are made overseas. My hand measures 7.5 inches around my palm above the thumb and 7.25 inches from the base of my hand to the end of my middle finger. I ordered a SMALL and they fit fine, slightly loose and quite comfortable. There is a little extra room at the tip of the fingers. You ladies with long nails will appreciate the extra room at the tips.I wore these excellent gloves to attack the thistles in my shrubs and I did not get stabbed by thorns at all!There are 2 versions of these gloves, one with elastic at the wrist and one with a cinch cord. I have a teeny tiny wrist (5-5/8") so I chose the cinch cord. It's easy to tighten with the cord, and to loosen simply pull back on the plastic tab. The gloves stayed on comfortably.As to the smell - they are made of leather and smell mildly like leather, duh! They are made to work on roses, not smell like roses.They are not waterproof, which is fine with me, I generally do not garden in the rain. I think an application of SnoSeal or silicone waterproofing spray would probably work if desired.I do not know how these would last if used for things like bricklaying, but for gardening they are terrific and very affordable.
