And yet they are advertised as “exam grade” gloves. And “textured”. I’d hate to get that exam.

Honestly have never used nitrate gloves that thick. They may actually be tough to take on and off because of the thickness and lack of stretch compared to the lighter gloves. These are what I typically use. http://www.amazon.com/SAS-Safety-66518-Powder-Free-Disposable/dp/B002XXO60M/ref=sr_1_1?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1417640394&sr=1-1&keywords=SAS+Safety+66518+Raven+Powder-Free+Disposable+Black+Nitrile+6+Mil+Gloves%2C+Large%2C+100+Gloves+by+Weight On Wed, Dec 3, 2014 at 2:42 PM, Josh Luthman via Af <[email protected]> wrote: Like this, Kade? http://www.amazon.com/SAS-Safety-6603-Thickster-Textured/dp/B0002STTW0 Josh Luthman Office: 937-552-2340 Direct: 937-552-2343 1100 Wayne St Suite 1337 Troy, OH 45373 On Wed, Dec 3, 2014 at 3:38 PM, Kade Sullivan via Af <[email protected]> wrote: A trick our tower climbers taught me is to wear a pair of the thick latex 5mm+ gloves underneath a set of lighter, tighter stretchy winter gloves. This allows you to retain much more dexterity without sacrificing much warmth. Ever since using this trick, i RARELY get cold fingers. I can typically make a set of the rubber gloves last a couple days of taking them on and off. You can pick up a 500 pack for pretty cheap. They are usually a sweet black or purple color. Very stylish. It goes against everything I've been taught as far as winter clothes and breath-ability, but it actually works. Your hands will be sweaty, but warm. You also will be able to hold bolts and nuts. The other added benefit is that if you have to remove your gloves to do something like put an ethernet end on, you just leave the rubbers on and slip your outter glove off. Your hand doesnt get cold near as fast because it's blocked from the wind somewhat. I have since told a couple friends that work out in the cold all day long doing construction, and they now buy those gloves by the case.

Normally, the coldest we work in is the 20's (Fahrenheit) and I really would like to find something that allows me to work with small tools with reasonable dexterity but keep my hands warm. Any suggestions? Am I being unrealistic?
