Every rose has its thorn, which is why you need a good pair of thorn proof gloves to protect against abrasions and punctures. For tasks involving sharp materials like pruning, we recommend a strong leather palm glove like Global Glove’s CR3200 Premium Cow Grain Gloves. Alternatively, you may opt for a nitrile coated gardening glove. Bellingham Glove has designed several with this in mind, such as the Nitrile Tough GT and Nitrile Tough Max.

They’re also available in black, individual colors, and a 4 pair pack to suit your personal taste. If you’re looking for a more disposable style, Global Glove offers an economical “370 style” alternative.
