Gardening Gloves
Two gloves cover nearly every job in the garden, and they are opposites. One is a thin, close-fitting coated glove for work that needs feel in the fingers. The other is a heavy riggers glove for work that is hard on the hands. Most gardeners end up owning a pair of each.

More information
Choosing between them
- Ninja HPT GripX. A lightweight multipurpose glove with a breathable nylon liner and a soft micro-foam coating. The coating repels liquid and grips in wet, oily and dry conditions, and air pockets in it absorb light vibration. It comes in S, M, L and XL. Choose it for planting seedlings and tubestock, potting up, pruning and general garden work.
- Riggers gloves. Comfortable, very durable gloves for heavy duty jobs in gardening and landscaping. They help reduce skin irritation and abrasions when handling axes, mattocks and chainsaws. Choose them for digging, clearing prunings, moving sleepers and planting advanced trees.
Getting the fit right
A coated glove should fit closely without stretching tight across the knuckles: too loose and the fingertips bunch, too tight and the hand tires. If you are planting a hedge or a large bed in one session, start in riggers gloves for the digging and change to the coated pair for setting the plants and tying them in.
Common questions
Can I use the coated gloves with wet soil?
Yes. The micro-foam coating repels liquid and keeps its grip in wet conditions.
