Leather is the traditional material of choice for many when it comes to gloves, and has a long and glorious history. As a glove material, it offers a level of abrasion protection that is hard to beat, but unfortunately is not effective against cut. For this reason, we continue to offer a fine selection of leather styles, some with cut-resistant linings, because they are still the favourite choice for industrial and construction applications and other heavy-duty jobs. For a complete selection of cut-resistant styles, please visit our Cut Resistant Gloves section. Scientific advancements in the development of cut-resistant fibers have opened up infinite possibilities, providing a reliable alternative to leather with few or no limitations in supply - or worse yet - major fluctuations in price.
