First impressions
These gloves looked like they would be really practical as well as looking quite smart. They were also warmer and more comfortable than I expected.
Overview of performance
I wore these gloves for all sorts of yard jobs — even for bathing! They were really comfortable and the thermal lining kept my hands very warm. They stood up well to regular use on the yard.
Lisa’s likes and dislikes
They were just so handy to have over the winter for doing things like bathing for competitions — my hands were always warm and dry. The only thing they weren’t so great for was tacking up and changing rugs, so it would be great if they could be thinner without compromising on warmth to make fiddly jobs easier.
Verdict
*H&H APPROVED* Warm and waterproof enough for bathing!
