Grip in Wet Conditions
Finding gloves that can protect you from water, rain and liquids is great, but if they are slippery and have poor grip then they may as well be labelled useless. The Portwest A450 Gloves have been designed to offer grip even in damp conditions, so that you can use your tools safely and effectively.
Knitted Elasticated Cuffs
The knitted elasticated cuffs on the Portwest Gloves not only offer additional warmth and a snug fit, but they also keep annoying twigs and debris out.
Hi-Vis Material
Should you find yourself having to do a spot of gardening in dim lit areas, or need to use the gloves for other outdoor activities or work, the Portwest Gloves have a hi-vis material that ensures you can be seen better.
