FAQs
What size are these gloves?
These are size 9 Large.
What material are the gloves primarily made of?
The gloves feature split cowhide leather for the finger and palm overlays, with a lightweight spandex back.
Are these gloves suitable for heavy construction work?
They are ideal for material handling, rigging, and hand tools, offering good durability and grip. For tasks involving heavy impacts or extreme abrasion, specialized heavy-duty gloves might be more appropriate.
Can I wash these gloves in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather and affect the fit and integrity of the gloves.
How long should I expect these gloves to last?
The lifespan depends on the frequency and intensity of use. The durable construction and reinforced areas are designed for longevity in demanding applications.
Will these gloves keep my hands warm?
While the leather provides some insulation, the lightweight spandex back prioritizes breathability. They are not designed as insulated winter gloves but offer comfort in moderate temperatures.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel stiff and restrictive.
The gloves may require a break-in period. Wear them for short, repeated intervals during tasks to gradually soften the leather and improve flexibility. You can also gently flex your hands while wearing them.
Grip feels slippery when new.
New leather can sometimes have a coating that reduces initial grip. Repeated use in a work environment will typically wear this off, improving traction. Ensure the material you are handling is not excessively oily or wet, as this can affect grip on any glove.
Leather is drying out or cracking.
This can happen if the gloves are exposed to excessive heat or not cared for properly. Apply a small amount of leather conditioner specifically designed for work gloves to help restore suppleness. Ensure proper drying and storage methods are followed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These gloves require no setup. Simply ensure you have selected the correct size (Size 9 Large in this case) for optimal fit and performance.
Compatibility: Compatible with a wide range of tasks involving manual labor, tool operation, and material handling. They are designed to work well with general hand tools, machinery, and common job site materials.
Care: To maintain the condition and longevity of your DeWalt work gloves:
- Cleaning: For light dirt, use a slightly damp cloth to wipe the affected areas. Avoid soaking the gloves in water.
- Drying: If the gloves become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources (like radiators or sunlight), as excessive heat can cause the leather to stiffen and crack.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to prevent mildew and maintain the leather's suppleness.
