Are these gloves good for driving?

Yes. The driver cut with a straight thumb and open wrist is made for holding a wheel and working levers, and leather gives a firm grip. They are not insulated, so they add no warmth on cold mornings.

Can I use them for heavy construction?

For light to medium tasks such as handling lumber, tools and rope, yes. For demolition, rebar or anything that strikes the knuckles, they lack padding and a reinforced palm, so a heavier task glove is the better pick.

Will they keep my hands dry?

No. They are unlined leather with no waterproof membrane, so water soaks through. Wet leather also stiffens as it dries, so let them air-dry away from direct heat.

How should I choose the size?

Pick the size that matches your usual glove size; leather driver gloves are cut to fit closely and loosen slightly with wear. If you are between sizes and want room for a liner, go up.
