S13FGPU - Superior Touch™ Fibreglass/Nylon Knit made with Dyneema® and Polyurethane Palm-coated

Superior combines three really tough materials to create one amazingly cut-resistant glove that also happens to be incredibly comfortable. When high-tech fibres are added to composite yarns, the results are impressive. Fibreglass on its own is brittle, and while it scores well in some aspects of cut-resistance, does not in itself stand up well to direct cut. However, when combined with Dyneema®, brittleness is no longer an issue, as the fibreglass is now strengthened and supported by the surrounding material. Nylon added to this composite enhances toughness and wear, while the ergonomically curved hand and finger shape of the seamless knit shell provides all-day comfort. Palms are coated with tough polyurethane for grip and added durability in wet/dry or oily conditions.

Fancier grip patterns do not equal better grip
ImageThere are diamond pattern grips, sandpatch grips, Z-pattern grips, pebble grips and scallop grips.These grip patterns might have a small effect on dry grip, but you are not wearing a dishwashing style to handle dry things. When it comes to wet grip, like in wet, soapy water, our tests have shown all grip patterns perform relatively the same. There are ways to change grip characteristics by changing the glove compounding itself, but grip pattern alone has little-to-no effect on wet grip.
