Chainsaw gloves

[Rennie29]

Hi... whats the best chainsaw gloves? Keep going through cheap ones so looking for better quality. Any recommendations?

Thanks

[Mark Bolam]

None.

You don’t need them.

 

Possibly the most bullshit thing ever invented.

[Rennie29]

Yeah but when im done climbing i help out the groundy and my hands take a beating wearing nothing 

[Mark Bolam]

I get you.

Loads of choice then, don’t waste money on chainsaw gloves!

 

Engelbert Strauss do a great range of leather work gloves at good prices.

 

My go-to’s for rough work were Dickies goatskin gloves. Not sure if you can still get them.

A pair of chainsaw gloves is only one protective glove anyway isn't it? I'd say get cheaper work gloves and don't put your hands near the chain

Will have a look cheers!

Cutter goatskin gloves are meant to be good.

Skyland Equipment sell them.

Showa 310s, I was recommended them and have stuck with the brand. I climb in them, ground, hedge cut, by far the best wearing work glove I have found. £3 a pair, Toolstation free delivery over £20.

I like the Site KF520 gloves, £4 from screwfix. A cut resistant work glove that's a bit thicker than most, a bit of padding helps without being too bulky to hold a saw. If found they last a decent amount of time compared to cheaper gloves.

I like the green arbortec gloves for hot days and the red pfanner ice grip for cold ones. They're nice and cheap and seem to last a long time. If I'm rigging then pfanner kepro.
