The Felco 701 Gardening Gloves are designed for professionals and hobbyists seeking superior protection and grip during detailed horticultural tasks. They offer excellent cut resistance and a secure hold on tools, making precise work easier. However, their specialized nature means they might be less suitable for heavy-duty or general gardening tasks requiring less dexterity.

While durable, the Felco 701 gloves are primarily designed for precision work. For heavy-duty digging or tasks involving excessive soil contact, consider gloves with a more robust coating or different material.
The nitrile coating offers some resistance to moisture, but the gloves are not fully waterproof. They provide an excellent grip even when slightly damp, but prolonged submersion or heavy rain may compromise performance and material integrity.
Refer to the product's sizing chart, typically based on hand measurements like palm circumference and length. A snug but comfortable fit is recommended for optimal dexterity and grip.
The 'gauge' refers to the thickness of the weave. A 13-gauge knit indicates a fine weave, meaning more stitches per inch, resulting in a denser, tighter fabric that enhances cut resistance and durability.
Glove lifespan depends on usage intensity and care. Inspect regularly for wear and tear. Replace when you notice significant thinning, cuts, holes, or a loss of grip.
No, Felco 701 gloves are not machine washable. Hand washing with mild soap and cold water is recommended to preserve the material's properties.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Refer to sizing guides if available. A proper fit is crucial for both comfort and performance.
Clean the gloves according to care instructions. Ensure they are completely dry before use. Excessive moisture can temporarily affect the nitrile coating's grip.
While the HPPE fiber is cut-resistant, extremely sharp or jagged edges can still snag. Exercise caution and replace gloves if significant fiber damage occurs.
Ensure the gloves are clean and dry. If irritation persists, consider wearing a thin liner glove underneath or consult a healthcare professional.
Setup:
These gloves require no setup. Simply select the correct size for a snug, comfortable fit. Ensure the elastic wristband sits comfortably to prevent slippage.
