Product Information
Full details
The Kew Gardens Thermal Lined Rigger Gloves are designed for gardeners and outdoor workers who require a blend of rugged hand protection and thermal insulation during colder months. These gloves offer exceptional durability for medium-to-heavy duty tasks, keeping hands warm and dry while maintaining a comfortable grip. A notable caveat is that the heavy-duty material may reduce fine dexterity, making them less suitable for delicate seed sowing or small-scale pruning.

FAQs
Are these gloves waterproof?
These gloves are designed to keep hands warm and dry in cold conditions, but they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in water.
What does the EN388:2016 rating mean?
This is a European standard that measures a glove's resistance to physical hazards like abrasion, cuts, tears, and punctures.
Can I use these for precision gardening?
Because these are heavy-duty rigger gloves, they are better suited for digging and lifting than for tasks that require high finger dexterity.
How do I know if the Large size will fit?
The Large size is designed for standard adult hand dimensions; ensure you have enough room for your fingers to move freely while maintaining a snug fit at the cuff.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the thermal lining and cause the suede to lose its shape. Stick to spot cleaning.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel stiff after getting wet
Allow the gloves to dry slowly at room temperature away from radiators, then gently knead the suede to restore flexibility.
Reduced grip on tools
Ensure the suede palm is clean and free of heavy mud, as caked-on dirt significantly reduces the natural friction of the material.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent thermal protection for winter gardening
- Suede palm provides a secure and rugged grip
- Durable construction suitable for heavy-duty tasks
- Complies with recognized European safety standards
Cons
- Bulkier design may limit fine finger dexterity
- Material is not fully waterproof in heavy rain
- Large size may be too loose for users with smaller hands
Setup, Compatibility & Care
No complex setup is required; simply ensure you have selected the correct size (Large) for a secure fit. To prolong the life of the gloves, brush off loose soil or debris after every use. If they become heavily soiled, spot clean them with a damp cloth and allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources, which can cause the suede to harden or crack. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this will compromise the structural integrity and thermal properties of the materials.
