Gloves

[WesD]

Ok so we have had threads on gloves before but I thought I’d ask from a different angle, what gloves do you use when running the ropes and a lot of the time letting them run?

[Steve Bullman]

definitely not rubber grip gloves!  Best gloves are a raw hide.  I had some nice yellow ones in the past, forget where they were from though.  Not much help sorry!

[Mark Bolam]

As above.

Dickies do some good ones and there’s some in the Englebert Strauss catalogue, available online.

Leather gloves, almost best when they are well worn in I find

We used to call them ‘John Waynes’!

Yep I use the same/similar.

Been using the John Deere leather ones which are excellent, as are their ordinary knitted ones with bit of Kevlar in them, I randomly picked up a pair of each whilst at my local dealership, and have been very impressed with their quality.

These are pretty good.

@Darrin Turnbull gets them from Germany, he should be able to help you out.

They bring a whole new dimension to ‘letting it run’.
