I purchase a pair after see some design for mechanic . I have a desk job , and weekend remodeling have be destroy my hand . these glove be a great idea and do work well . I can work hard for two day frame , wiring , sheet rock , with virtually no wear to my hand . I can do just about everything with they on , with the exception of peel tape from a roll . however , after only three day of use , the stitch on the palm start to break apart . I do not know how much longer they be go to last . when these go , I will look for a similar product of higher quality .
