Features to consider when buying garden gloves

Fit

When you’re getting hands-on in the garden, it’s important to have a pair of gardening gloves which aren’t going to fall off, or are a pain to get on! With garden gloves to suit almost every size of hand, you’ll find the perfect fit here.

Material

Of course you want your gardening gloves to be practical, but why not bring some more vibrancy to your outdoor tasks with our range of colours? Choose from block colours or bold designs in a variety of durable materials, making sure your hands are protected and stylish!

Gardening tasks

We have gardening gloves for all kinds of outdoor tasks to make sure you’re protected. For general gardening tasks, we have multi-purpose gardening gloves made from lightweight materials for dexterity, perfect for picking weeds and planting seeds.

For heavy duty tasks, check out our rigger gloves. These are strong and sturdy gloves for when you’re using your log splitter or garden shredder, or loading up your garden trolley with rocks & heavy materials.

Benefits of using garden gloves

We love spending time outdoors, but it’s not without its perils! Sharp thorns, nettles, uneven surfaces, and heavy objects can all play havoc on our hands, so it’s vital to wear gardening gloves when working outside for hygiene and comfort.

Using gardening gloves also improves your grip, especially useful when you’re using hand tools. Gardening doesn’t stop in winter, so check out our warming garden gloves to keep your hands toasty when working outside and prepping for spring!

FAQs

Are leather or synthetic gloves better for gardening?

Leather gardening gloves are a great all-purpose choice and offer good protection in the garden, though you may find the fit and flexibility of synthetic gloves better for general gardening tasks. Synthetic gloves will be more water-resistant than leather, but don’t offer the same breathability.

Can garden gloves be washed?

Many gardening gloves can be washed, as long as they’re not leather. Always check the label for guidance, and check out our blog on how to read washing labels if you’re unsure!

How often should I replace my gardening gloves?

This depends on how often you use your garden gloves, what they’re made from, and in what conditions they’re used. If they’re stored in a safe place, you can get a long time of use from your gloves, but it’s worth replacing when they start to look a little worse for wear.
