The Portwest Classic Canadian Rigger Glove is an essential piece of personal protective equipment for professionals in construction, landscaping, agriculture, and forestry who require durable hand protection. These gloves deliver a strong defense against abrasions and impacts through high-quality cow split leather, making them ideal for heavy manual labor. While the gloves offer exceptional robustness and grip, users should note that the leather construction is not waterproof, which may limit their utility in sustained wet conditions.

These gloves provide excellent abrasion resistance, but they are not specifically rated as cut-proof. Always use caution when handling extremely sharp blades.
No. Machine washing will damage the leather, strip its natural oils, and cause the gloves to shrink and become stiff.
It indicates that the product complies with the essential health and safety requirements defined by European regulations for protective equipment.
They provide some wind protection due to the leather, but they are not insulated and will not provide significant warmth in freezing conditions.
Store them in a clean, dry, and well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight and chemicals.
Allow the gloves to air dry slowly at room temperature. Once mostly dry, work the leather with your hands to soften the fibers.
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a mild soap solution to spot-clean the affected area, then air dry completely.
Ensure the cotton back is not covered by long sleeves and allow the gloves to ventilate between shifts.
Because these are ready-to-wear gloves, no complex setup is required. To ensure longevity, keep the gloves in a cool, dry place when not in use. If they become heavily soiled, brush off dry debris with a stiff-bristled brush. Avoid submerging the leather in water; if they get wet, air-dry them away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as excessive heat can cause the leather to crack or become brittle. Periodically inspect the seams and palm reinforcements for signs of excessive wear; if the leather begins to thin significantly or tear, the gloves should be replaced to maintain adequate safety standards.
