Contender™ Kevlar®/Tirecore Blend Cut-resistant Knit Gloves

INTRODUCING…a new style from Round 2 of our Contender™ series: a version that features a combination of high-strength glass fiber encased with a blend of Kevlar® and tirecore fiber. High-strength glass fiber adds a low-cost boost to cut protection, wrapped securely so that it cannot break free to the wearer’s hand. This combination of fibers yields an ASTM cut-level 4 rating.
Our unique spinning process results in a very even fiber distribution for consistent cut resistance over the life of the glove.

Kevlar® is a registered trademark of E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company.

Do more layers equal more protection?
Construction in the palm area of leather gloves leads to some misconceptions. When sizing up gloves in a catalog, it is tempting to believe – based on appearance alone – that a patch palm is going to double your protection. To the uninitiated, palm patches would seem to offer greater protection, as the double palm looks like it would give twice the protection in that area.
The reality with most patch-palm leather glove styles is that the patch exists as a kind of bridge between two pieces of leather to create a full palm. This enables the glove manufacturer to maximize use of the full hide by using up all the smaller leftover pieces.
