FAQs

What makes these gloves 'shock absorber' gloves?

They feature foam padding in the palm designed to absorb impact and reduce jarring sensations during heavy-duty tasks like digging and pruning.

Are these gloves suitable for fine gardening tasks?

While they offer protection, the padding might reduce dexterity for very intricate tasks. They are best suited for heavier work.

How do I clean my Shock Absorber Gloves?

Hand wash with mild soap and cold water. Air dry them away from direct heat.

What is the main benefit of the SPANDEX back?

The lined SPANDEX back provides breathability, comfort, and flexibility, allowing your hands to move naturally.

Can I adjust the fit of the gloves?

What type of material is the palm made of?

What jobs are these gloves best for?

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the HOOK & LOOP wrist strap. Tighten for a more secure fit or loosen for increased comfort. Ensure the strap is not over-tightened, which could restrict circulation.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces.

While the synthetic leather offers good grip, like most gloves, performance may be reduced on extremely wet surfaces. Wipe palms dry when possible.

Padding feels stiff initially.

The gloves may require a short break-in period. Wear them for a few tasks to allow the padding and materials to conform to your hands.
