Basic Work Glove Patterns


Clute Cut - The most popular pattern for cotton flannel gloves – offers comfort as well as good hand protection. Seams on back of hand.

Reversible - A pattern that has the thumb positioned on the side of the glove, so it can be worn on either hand. Particularly effective where palm or thumb receive a lot of wear. When thumb or palm wears out, glove can be switched to the other hand.

Gunn Cut - Particularly effective in leather palm gloves, because leather on the front of fingers extends two thirds of the way around each finger, eliminating exposed seams in palm wear area.



 
Common glove myth
ImageLeather is good for abrasion resistance, which is why it is used in bikers jackets. However, it is so low in cut resistance that even a lightweight string-knit cotton glove is more cut resistant than the average leather glove.
