Hi folks,

I'm looking to get some decent, durable waterproof gloves. Was having a look at these - https://www.arco.co.uk/products/G115398?s=1, which are well priced because I got through a couple of pairs a year.
(I'm terrible for losing gloves!)

Does anyone have any thoughts or recommendations?

Cheers,
Chris

i used to have some industrial 'marigolds'
those gloves you show are ok and cheap but only water proof until it gets wet above the rubber. then i use latex under tough gloves and get the best of both.
depends what you want them for really?
