Kimberly-ClarkKimberly Clark Safeskin Purple Nitrile-Xtra Exam Gloves

Completely inaccurate description of the product. The glove that I received (blue) is nothing like what is being described in the product description and picture. They are short and cheap. Additionally, they don't even come in a box. Just a plastic bag. Returning. For this price I expected much better quality and to actually receive the product that I ordered.

伸びもよく裂けないので使いやすいでしょう。レビューの中に「Lサイズはお相撲さんとか格闘家レベル」とありましたが、実際Ｍではちょっと締め付けがキツイかと思いました。手自体は大きくなくても、手に厚みがある方はサイズを気を付けて下さい。

The only reason I did not give these 5 stars was that I received the "Halyard" brand instead of Kimberly-Clark, and I thought I should have been informed of the substitution up front. They do seem to be of the same quality. They seem a little snug compared to the medium size Kimberly Clark short gloves, but they still fit. I would buy them again, either Halyard or Kimberly Clark.I use them for beekeeping. They are very sting-resistant and still allow the dexterity to pick up a queen bee without injury to her. The extra length gives me a little more protection around the wrists than the short version. I get more dexterity with these gloves than the vinyl dishwashing gloves I occasionally use. A pair will usually last several trips to the bee yard, although they are cheap enough that you could throw them away every time. Sometimes they do rip if you catch a nail or a splinter. Rarely a bee will sting through them.

I don't use these gloves for medicinal or cooking reasons, I use them for beekeeping. Traditional beekeepers gloves out of leather are bulky and the leather reminds bees too much of an animal invading their hive. I'm not confident enough to go gloveless (yet) but I read that these gloves are a nice compromise. And they are. They are thin enough that you can feel the bees and there little vibrations that let you know when they start getting upset, or just feeling the bees in general. Leather gloves really don't let you know when you have a bee stuck between your fingers. These do. They don't easily tear and I can use the same pair multiple times. They are great when you are checking a hive other than your own so that you don't cross-contaminate hives and if and when the bees do get a little uppity and think about stinging, they generally go through a few moments of confusion of what to do since the gloves are rubber (haha).

I’ve been using these xtra long gloves by Halyard/Kimberly-Clark for nearly 3.5 years now & I really do love them! It’s been a godsend since I’ve been recently diagnose with an autoimmune disorder (Sjogren Syndrome and Eczema). I use it for everything I do (housecleaning, house projects, gardening, and even cooking prep...mind you, using different/new gloves for each purpose😬😊) in order to protect my very sensitive hands and wrists (due to my condition...the occasional rash flare-up) . For the past year, and with my recent purchase of 6 boxes, I’ve experience/noticed wetness through the thumbs of these gloves...as if they have tiny pinholes, to which the liquid are coming right through...not good, sigh... I thought maybe it’s sweat from my hands; and so, I started to wear white cotton gloves underneath the purple nitrile gloves. That is when I detected/confirmed the “wet spot” & it was coming through the thumb part of the gloves. I believe my batch of gloves are defective...but I really do need them. Amazon is always out of stock OR the fluctuating prices at the moment. I guess will use these up...in addition to my smaller disposable nitrile gloves on top of it...for added protection. Normally I would rate this a 5...but for the last year and with my latest purchase of 6 boxes...I rate this at a 2/5.
