FAQs
Cut levels?
ANSI A1 (light) through A9 (max). A4 handles drywall, A5 metal stamping, A7+ glass and steel handling. Higher level = thicker glove = less dexterity.
Leather vs synthetic?
Leather (cowhide, goatskin) breathes better, lasts longer, costs more. Synthetic (nitrile, latex coated) cheaper, oil-resistant, replaceable when worn.
