Legacy Gardens Gardening Gauntlet

Yes, the A-grade goatskin leather is specifically chosen for its puncture resistance. While no glove is entirely impenetrable, the reinforced padding on the fingers and thumbs combined with the thick leather provides significant protection against sharp thorns and brambles.

The extended gauntlet cuffs are designed to reach well past the wrist, offering substantial coverage for your lower arms. This helps prevent scratches and scrapes when reaching deep into dense bushes or handling prickly foliage.

While they are built for heavy-duty protection, the goatskin leather is naturally more supple than cowhide, allowing for better dexterity. You will have enough flexibility for most maintenance tasks, though they may feel slightly bulkier than thin, fabric-based gardening gloves.

The elastic wrist is designed to create a snug, secure seal that keeps dirt and debris out of your gloves. Because the fit is meant to be close, we recommend following our sizing guide carefully to ensure the gloves are tight enough to stay put but not so restrictive that they limit your movement.

Because these are made from genuine leather, they should not be machine washed or submerged in water, as this can cause the material to stiffen and crack. If they get muddy, it is best to let the dirt dry and then gently brush it off with a soft-bristled brush.
