Hi Kevin, Thank you for the 5 stars! We appreciate the kind words and are glad you’re happy with both the product and our service. – The 1898 Leather Team
This is a perfect pair of welding gloves. The standard gloves in stores are not good fitting and get in the way. These fit my hands perfectly and doesn’t feel like I’m wearing two pieces of cardboard like my old Lincoln ones.

Probably the best pair of gloves I have put on my hands, super durable and comfortable. My only complaint is that they come a little small so maybe order a size larger
