These Showa Atlas nitrile gloves are hailed as being like a second skin (as long as you buy the right size) and are great for dexterity. These everyday gardening gloves are good for light- to medium-duty jobs.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The nitrile palm coating protects your hands and fingertips from moisture while the knit material on the back lets your skin breathe. These gloves are machine washable and come in a 6-pack or 4-pack, depending on the size.

We like these two gloves from Wells Lamont &#8212; one designed for women and one for men. These are heavier-duty, all-purpose gloves that have a wider range of applications than a basic nitrile glove.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Wells Lamont gloves are useful for medium to heavy gardening chores. Put on these gloves if you have wood to haul or need to do a good end-of-season garden cleanup. You can work around your hobby farm, do light construction, work with animals, or till the garden.&nbsp;<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These gloves crossover into the \u201cwork glove\u201d category, so you can expect them to last longer than a standard nitrile garden glove.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Specifications:<\/p>    <ul class=\"wp-block-list\"> <li>Come in small, medium, and large sizes<\/li>    <li>HydraHyde leather resists water<\/li>    <li>Spandex back is water-resistant as well<\/li>    <li>Spandex gives extra breathability<\/li>    <li>Velcro wrist band<\/li> <\/ul>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pros:<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2713 Leather\/spandex combo for strength and breathability<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2713 Spandex gives greater dexterity<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2713 Adjustable velcro wrist<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2713 Spandex helps glove fit to your hand<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cons:<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2717 Not waterproof<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2717 Not the best for fine motor tasks<\/p>    <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4.

Try them on, if you can, obviously. Pay close attention to three things: Fit, material, and purpose (who the gloves are designed to be used).<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Fit<\/strong>: Check what sizes are available for each glove. In this list, we\u2019ve tried to include gloves with multiple sizes. Look at the sizing chart listed with each product. Check the reviews as well. You\u2019ll often find other buyers comment on whether the gloves fit as advertised.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Material: <\/strong>Some gloves are all one material (leather, for example), while others, like the Showa Atlas and Vgo kids\u2019 gloves, have a fabric back and a nitrile or foam latex palm coating. Some gardening gloves are made from 100% cotton. The material you choose will depend on the job you need to do.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Purpose: <\/strong>We\u2019ve divided up our gloves by purpose or project. Gardening gloves are like shoes: There is a type for every occasion. Use the wrong type, and you\u2019ll likely bleed or blister.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here is a good overview of the basic types of gardening gloves you may need:&nbsp;<\/p>    <figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\"> <iframe title=\"Best garden gloves |John Dromgoole |Central Texas Gardener\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/27vj9TpmwbU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe> <\/div><\/figure>    <h2 id=\"10-faqs-about-gardening-gloves\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">FAQ About Gardening Gloves<\/h2>    <div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1658745757909\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>1. What is nitrile?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Nitrile is known as a latex alternative and is made of synthetic rubber. It protects skin from chemicals and is more puncture resistant than latex.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1658745779680\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">2. How long will a good pair of gloves last?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Full-time horticulturists say a standard nitrile glove may last only about a week. For weekend gardeners, you should get much more time out of nitrile gloves, but if you see that a glove comes in a multi-pack, it probably isn\u2019t meant to last forever.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1658745797663\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">3. Is it necessary to wear gardening gloves?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Wearing gardening gloves is a smart idea. Soils are filled with good bacteria and fungi, but some soil bacteria can be harmful to humans. Bacteria that cause sepsis and tetanus live in soil and animal manure. If these bacteria enter via cuts or scrapes on your skin, they can do real harm.\u00a0<br\/><br\/>Better safe than sorry, so it\u2019s best to put on a pair of sturdy, fashionable gloves before you get to work in the garden.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>    <h2 id=\"11-conclusion\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gardening gloves are an essential part of your gardener\u2019s tool kit &#8212; every bit as essential as your favorite garden spade or trowel.&nbsp;<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just like a good pair of shoes, there is a glove for every occasion. Choosing the right glove will keep unnecessary blisters and injuries at bay and help you be more productive and safe in your garden.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>LawnStarter participates in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program and other retailer affiliate programs.
