4 Pack Showa Atlas NT370 Atlas Nitrile Garden Gloves - Small (Assorted Colors)

These really are the best for those of us who often hang with plants and dirt. They hug my fingers so I don't feel bulky and can continue on what I need to do while transitioning from activity to activity. I throw them in the washer on delicate/cold and they wash great. Do NOT put them in the dryer. Air or line dry. Still soft and comfy and every bit as good as new. The nitrile coating is top notch.

happy wife happy life

I have purchased a set of these gloves every season for the last 5 years. give a pair to my daughters. these gloves are very durable and I like the colors. I hope they are not discontinuing the gloves.

I have worked in the garden industry for a long time, and I hate - and I'm not using that word lightly - hate wearing gloves while I'm working or gardening.On my small hands, most gloves are too big or bulky, and they either fall off, or there is so much material bulked around my fingertips that I can't feel what I'm doing. You know what I'm talking about. You try to do something detailed, like pull small weeds, and it's like trying to thread a needle with a tube sock over each finger.The cheap cotton knit or canvas gloves feel like you're wearing sweatpants on your hands, and the sweatier your hands get, the more dust comes through the fabric and sticks to them, creating sweaty mud under the fingernails and in every wrinkle in your hands. Yuck. Nope.It's probably weird to hear a gardener say this, but I don't like to get my hands dirty. I don't mind hard work, sweaty work, dirty work, as long as my hands stay clean-ish. It's a sensory thing.For years I struggled with wanting my hands to stay clean and protected from sharp objects, thorns, spiders under pots, etc., so I would TRY to wear gloves, but I'd always end up taking them off.Right after college, I was working at an independent garden center and I decided to try a pair of Showa/Atlas Nitrile Touch NT370 gloves because they were inexpensive and I noticed everyone else was wearing them. I've never worn another type of gardening glove since, and I have purchased 20+ pairs over the years since then.What are Atlas Nitrile Touch gloves?They're a mesh glove that is dipped so that the palms are covered with nitrile that stretches down and around the tips of your fingers. Your fingernails are inside the nitrile part of the glove, but the backs of your hands and fingers are covered by only a stretchy, breathable mesh.Why are they so amazing?They fit! LIKE A GLOVE. (Do you see what I did there?) They're designed to fit snug, and they come in several sizes. I have small hands for a woman, so I prefer the size small, but if you have very long fingers or larger women's hands, the size medium will be just right. The size large fits average size man hands, but there is also a size XL for guys with giant hands.Flexible. At my job I often have to switch between typing and doing something to get my hands dirty, and these gloves are thin and flexible enough that I can switch seamlessly between the two without removing my gloves. I can even use a touch screen with my gloves still on!Breathable. My hands get sweaty working outside in July/August, but these gloves are a breathable mesh on the back, so they dry very quickly. I like to keep a spare pair of clean/dry gloves to change into in case the first pair gets sweaty or wet.Machine washable. I just throw mine in with the laundry and lay them out to air dry.Great quality/value. I have only gone through 20+ pairs because I wore mine 10 hours a day and washed them often. With casual use, a pair of these gloves will last for years. I only ever wore out one or two pairs. The rest of them eventually got brittle on the rubbery part after 4-5 years, but by then I'd gotten more than my money's worth from them.Inexpensive. The last 2 times I bought my gloves in a 6-pair pack for around $20. Even if you don't need that many, this might be the best value. Keep a few pairs and gift some to a friend.Don't confuse these gloves with look-alikes that fit poorly, make hands sweaty, and fall apart after a few wears. You'll throw all your other gardening gloves away once you own a pair of Showa/Atlas Nitrile Touch NT370.

Gloves are comfortable. Fit Snug! I always buy this brand. The only bad thing is the first and second finger gets a hole in them .

Just love these gloves, the first I've found that really fit my small hands. The nitrile makes pulling tiny weeds as easy as doing so with my bare hands, but they're sturdy enough to protect my hands when handling heftier chores. I didn't rate them for touch screen because I haven't tried to use a device while wearing them. Also didn't rate their durability because I've had them only a short time.

Best fitting gloves I’ve ever found. They hold up well in our rock clay we like to call dirt here in New England. They don’t feel bulky, which helps when pulling weeds. Even use these as work gloves for around the home, not just in the yard/garden. Of course they don’t last forever, eventually you will wear holes through the finger tips with lots of digging in rocky dirt, but I get a lot of use out of them before that happens.

I love these gloves, have favored them for years. I always order Small. When they arrived direct from Showa, they were Large. I don't blame Amazon, the Amazon barcode label on the bag was correct -size Small. That label had been placed over/covering the glove size printed on the bag which said Size L in very bold letters I could see thru the Amazon label. So the mistake happened at Showa.I'm not returning them, will just reorder. Annoying. Luckily the Large fit my husband well.

Very good use all time and still going

Had one pair of these gloves and had to get some more as I had torn the top of the material by accident.They have a lovely feel as you can touch plants as if using your bare hands.They keep your nails clean and protect your hands from any nasty surprises that have been left in the ground. Best gardening gloves if you work with young plants and seedlings but good all over.Not waterproof on the back of your hands only the fingers and palms. I bought four pairs and feel they are a very good buy.Gave 2 pairs to my mum as she's still very keen at gardening at 82.

I was disappointed that the gloves seem different to the ones that I usually order from Atlas direct. They are slightly bigger but a lot cheaper. I prefer the ones I get from Atlas, even though they are dearer.

I love these gloves, just can't live without them in the winter and this pack was an exceptionally good deal. I would recommend these to anyone who does lots of outside jobs especially in winter and also for gardening in the summer

A little confusing - received an email to say order had not been despatched. No further contact but then gloves arrived about 2 weeks after original email.
