- What does double-palm mean on these gloves?
- A second layer of suede leather covers the palm and fingers. That layer takes the wear, so the glove lasts longer in high-friction work.
- Are these gloves good for wet work?
- No. Suede cowhide absorbs water and stiffens when it dries. Use a coated or nitrile glove for wet conditions.
- How should I pick the size?
- Kinco lists these in small through large. Measure around your dominant hand at the knuckles and match it to the brand's size chart, since leather gloves fit snugly at first.
- Will they soften up?
- Yes. Suede cowhide starts stiff but molds to the hand after a few days of use. Conditioning the leather helps it break in faster.
- Do they protect against cuts and punctures?
- Leather resists scuffs and light punctures but is not cut-resistant rated. For sharp blades or glass, use a glove with an ANSI cut level rating.
