I decided to give these Youngstown General Utility Plus gloves a try after previously owning a pair of Ironclad general utility gloves that wore out. These gloves are made very well and I have no doubt that they would have lasted me a long time, although the inside seams rubbed on my hands and they just did not feel as form fitted to my hands like the Ironclad gloves. The asphalt surfaces on the palms would last a long time and offer a lot of protection to a wearer that did not need such a form fitted glove. Very impressive well built glove but just not for me.
I have worked for UPS for 10yrs. not I have tried any and all kinds of gloves and there are none better out there for the job than Ironclad Box Handling gloves! Hand down the best! Other gloves to thick and can't write or handle our delivery devices. Some are to slippery to handle boxes. Ironclad gloves though...very good for anything you throw at them and Plamflex gots them! A little pricey but very good gloves!

I have been using the Atlas 370 Palmtech gloves for the past five years for landscape installation and maintenance work. I have not found a better combination of protection, durability and dexterity in a glove. I use them for stonework and for delicate planting and pruning. They last me 5-6 weeks of heavy uses and can stand repeated washing. I usually rotate 2-3 pairs at a time and recommend washing once a week. I don't leave my truck without my Felco pruners, soil knife and Atlas gloves on hand. Great product, great company.
