These are the gloves to get
even if you don't dig in the dirt. Priced from $4 to $7
a pair, the tough mitts protect your paws without
compromising flexibility. The Nitrile coating is a thin,
rubbery material that contours to the hand, gives an
excellent grip, and resists tearing and puncturing.
Unlike heavy leather, it flexes and bends. Dexterity
isn't compromised so you can pluck a small weed or plant
a single seed. Don't go crazy though: you still feel the
prick of a hearty thorn. Beyond gardening, we use ours
for everything from scrubbing the deck to polishing
silver. They're machine washable and can be found
wherever gardening supplies are sold.
