From the Manufacturer
Ironclad gloves are like no other glove on the market. These revolutionary gloves are task-specific and made with a keen eye directed towards quality, dexterity, and durability. The gloves are equipped with a spandex upper that takes heat and moisture away from the hand and allows the glove to fit like a second-skin. The man-made leather palm is reinforced in the excessive wear areas and is double stitched for added durability. You can wear the glove the entire day without ever having to take it off. All of Ironclad's gloves are machine washable and customer satisfaction is guaranteed.

Customer Reviews

Great Gloves
I am a Mail Carrier for the Post Office. After several years of winter with painful fingers from the cold and wet. I found the boxhandlers. Although they are not waterproof, they keep my hands warm and protected from ice, road salt and frozen mailboxes. I am able to handle the letters with suprising dexterity.I would recommend these gloves to anyone who works outside in the winter and finger dexterity is very important.

not a real package handler glove
I work as a delivery driver for one of the parcel companies, handling about 2,000 packages a week. These gloves did not last three weeks, and by that time the fingertips had serverd and a nice hole developed at the palms. I can't imaging how they would last in-building where 5,000 pieces are handled in one night. Surely Ironclad could have developed this glove with feedback and field testing from actual box handlers before labeling them as such.

Gloves wore out in less than a week
I also work for a major delivery company in the distribution center. Granted, we handle a huge number of boxes (over 1,000 per hour), but these gloves wore out in less than a week. The first two days the gloves performed wonderfully and made my job easier, but on the third day the rubber coating began to wear off. By the end of day four, the smooth leather was showing through. By the end of day five, the fingertips were all bare of the rubber coating and the terry cloth sweat wipe was starting to fail. If you're only handling a small number of packages, then maybe these will work for you. Otherwise, you might want to wait until Ironclad issues their new version, which is supposed to be a box handler glove for those that actually handle boxes for a living. For now, I didn't think the money was at all well spent considering I only got one week of use.
