I also believe the gloves are not for me:)) i don’t feel comfortable at all wearing them and i’ve tried many to see if i will get used with some or i will like to work with them but no i just like to feel all on the skin, to have a better feeling of what i’m doing, even if i’m getting dirty.Gloves does change, but i’m not sure about me:D

I live just south of the PA border – by 7 miles LOL. I’ve been trying to find some good gloves for gardening and so far haven’t found a pair that I don’t wear through. I’d love to give these a try. And I’ve just discovered your site and am enjoying it immensly.

Liga, the backs of the gloves are a knit material, and they do fit very snugly. The pseudo-leather on the palms is thin and flexible. My daughter and I were both surprised at how snug they were; it takes some getting used to. However, a snug knit glove does give even finer control.

It’s true that gardening gloves have changed tremendously over the years, so if you haven’t used them for awhile it’s time to explore again. However, I find that there is yet to be a SINGLE pair of gloves that meets all needs when it comes to gardening. The Ethel gloves look to be fine for the heavier work, but they would not have the same close fit as those made of knit materials (my personal preference), which DO allow you to get into those delicate areas like weeding between seedings, and give you the feel of a plant or the earth as well as protect your hands from damage. Thanks for introducing the discussion about the use of gloves though – it’s a good one.

I wear leather gloves now…they are the only ones I have that don’t get holes easily, but they get hot in the summer…

They look like a product I could use when I garden.

I have heard of these but do not own any, but I prefer to wear gloves when gardening. Once you get used to them you hate not wearing them! Think bugs, animal waste, etc. Ick!
