String Knit Kevlar Wraparound Leather Palm Cut Resistant Work Gloves

Our ‘Action’ leather gloves have become the industry standard for heavy-duty cut resistance and durability. All models combine our own abrasion-resistant Tri-tan side-split leather (except the grain leather version SKGLP) with the excellent comfort and cut resistance of a seamless-knit Kevlar® glove. And as an added benefit, Kevlar® will not melt or drip around heat and open flame, increasing the range of applications. Fingers of the leather palms extend around the sides. This is one of the greatest wear areas, as seams tend to rub and annoy, often coming apart between the fingers. Our wrap-around style increases protection and comfort; extends glove life; and greatly improves launder-ability. Complete with full leather thumb, palms are attached to the knit shell with Kevlar® thread for greater durability.

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.
