What makes FOXGLOVES better than other gloves?
The first thing you will notice is their form fit and comfortable feel. Most garden
gloves are bulky and ill fitting. Not FOXGLOVES you can do anything with these
gloves that you would do barehanded. The fabric that we use is a SUPPLEX nylon/LYCRA
elastane blend that has a nice soft feel but is extremely durable and abrasion resistant.
When you have to get into the soil you will find that the gloves protect your fingers and
nails from the dirt that usually gets through other gloves. And when you are finished you
can wash them under the tap or in the machine and you will find your gloves soft and clean
ready for you to wear again and again.
Do they come in sizes?
At this time we offer the Original and Grip styles in small, a medium (woman's) size and a large (man's) size. Because of the Lycra elastane content they do stretch to fit many different size and shaped hands. Gauntlets and Works styles come in small, medium, large and extra large.
Will dirt go through the fabric?
Because of the tight knit and the brushed surface soil will not penetrate the cloth
and your hands and nails stay clean. Even working in muddy conditions, your hands are
still protected.
Are they waterproof?
FOXGLOVES are not waterproof they are resistant to water and will not absorb it
like cotton or leather so you can continue to work in them in wet soil without
compromising the quality of the fabric or your hands. When wet, water wicks away quickly
and does not compromise your dexterity.
Are they thorn proof?
FOXGLOVES are not thorn proof, but if caught on a thorn, they will not rip and will
continue to protect your hands. They may also be worn under a leather glove as a liner and
will help prevent blisters obtained from stiff leather seams.
Are they hot to wear?
The fabric used in our gloves is very breathable so hands do not sweat.
How do I clean them?
FOXGLOVES are fully washable in the machine or under the faucet and may be dried in
the dryer on low heat or line dried.
