gloves.jpg These gloves are really poorly sewn - the thread isn't heat-resistant; the stitching isn't rip-stop; and the inside & outside seams commonly come apart (if they're even sewn at all).  But they are cheap and SOOOOOO comfortable to work in, in any weather.  The lining is just thick enough to keep my fingers warm in winter & to soak up sweat in summer, and the soft leather is just thick enough for good heat & spark protection.  They don't restrict finger movement at all, or require extra grip strength just to flex the glove.  They give excellent feel and dexterity without falling off or being difficult to remove.  So as bad as they are, it's worth it to me to keep buying them - at least until I find a better glove that's made similarly.

I've since found some Hobarts that I like at Northern Tool for ~$28/pr that last MUCH longer.
