Good Gloves?

you could spray glue a cotton knit glove w/ cuff inside a leather roping glove. cheap insulation?

Just wondering if anyone has found a pair of long wearing gloves. I seem go through a pair ever month or two from handling the wood. Most of the time its just in the fingertips. I got Wells Lamant high dollar gloves and Walmart low end and I don't seem to make much difference. I've gotten pigskin, cowhide, goatskin and buckskin and none seem to do the trick any better than the others. I got some this summer that were synthetic backing with leather fingertips and palms. They weren't too bad but cost quite a bit.....well to me anyway. Just thought I'd ask and see if anyone has found some good ones

Nope.....been wearing them all out pretty fast. I duct tape the fingers at least once before discarding.

FYI Harbor Freight has a lot of their gloves on sale for February!

Haven't found any good ones yet. I thought they were wearing out fast because I was buying the cheap stuff so I started buying $15/pair gloves and they wore holes in the fingers in 2-3 days of hard work in the wood pile. I went back to buying the cheap gloves and just replace them when they wear out.

i just bought a $5.00 pair of Wells Lamant Heavy Duty (Yeah, Right) Work gloves. Thought I'd give them a try for the price. if i get a month out of them, then its a good investment.
