Carhartt Men's All Purpose Micro Foam Nitrile Dipped Glove

I'm an avid glove enthusiast, let me just say that up front. Though I don't write about them as often as I should. I have a lot of issues with my hands, they're smaller than average, they're extremely dry and will bleed in the winter, I have carpal tunnel, and I popped a knuckle out of place 20 years ago it is still not right. So I use gloves all the time, from about October thru March every year in the Midwest USA. I'll use them other times in the year when working outside, etc. What I was looking for recently was a lightweight glove that gripped well so that I could take my wallet out of my back pocket and then run a credit card while at the gas station when it's frigid outside. No gloves I own can do this because they're all too thick. So I'd rather have a slimmer, less warm glove, such that I wouldn't have to take my glove off to do many things.


Enter the Carhartt Men's All Purpose Micro Foam Nitrile Dipped Glove. These gloves are not heavy duty. They're just not. They're not made for cold temperatures either. They breath way too much for anything below freezing unless you're walking or being active. Their palm and fingers are nitrile for great grip, but I can tell that they would fall apart during a hard day of work. These are not great "working" gloves. Get some leather ones if you're hard at work. But if you need something that is slim fit, and will still give you some ability to handle small objects, I'd recommend you look at these. If you're out on a cold-ish hike, these would make sense as well. Again, not the warmest, but certainly they're very versitle.

Available in two different colors that are both pretty similar in my opinion.

95% Nylon, 5% Spandex Imported Pull On closure Hand Wash Nitrile palm provides breathability, dexterity and excellent grip on wet and dry surfaces Seamless knit lining and rib-knit cuff for comfort and fit
