I bought these gloves last year to try. I like gauntlets, and I liked my leather ones, but you can't wash off propolis etc well. And the seams would sometimes get in the way - under frame edges and then I'd upset the bees!
So tried these and they are perfect!
Excellent. Why has Thornes stopped retailing them? Well done GG Ltd!
