Thorn Proof Rose Pruning Garden Gloves for Women, Long Sleeve Padded Yard Work for Bush, Blackberry, Cactus, Heavy Duty/Puncture Resistant/Machine Washable, Large, Purple

These are great for pruning all our plants! No thorny poke throughs at all! Definitely will buy again.

I wasn't really expecting much from these gloves but I've been doing a lot of yard work clearing brush and a lot of thorny vines, and wanted something to protect my hands and arms - my regular work gloves were useless against the prickers and thorns. These gloves stopped all but the largest (1/2" or so) of thorns and prickers. They fit well, though a little bulky, and are very serviceable for yard work. The long sleeve protects forearms as well.

These gloves are great. They are thick and I like the sleeves are not too long. I can handle nipping puppy. I need this protection because I had the puppy’s claw break my skin and I am on blood thinners.

I haven't used these outdoors yet but will be pruning blackberry bushes soon. However, I would suggest going a size larger than you would normally wear. I normally wear a large in gloves but found them to be tight, particularly around the wrist area. I returned the Large and ordered an Extra Large which was a much more comfortable fit. I will make a further review of durability and sturdiness after pruning my blackberries! Update: I was able to test the gloves while pruning Blackberry bushes. They are not completely thorn-proof, but provide more protection than any other type glove I've used. The synthetic leather material provides pretty good protection but the mesh material on the back of the hand and fingers allows penetration from thorns. As noted in my earlier review, I would go for a size larger as the gloves are quite tight and will bind at the junction of the glove and sleeve as well as finger joints. I am glad I opted for the extra large size even though I normally wear a large size glove.

I have the nastiest huge pyracantha bushes in front of my house as a privacy barrier, so I got these gloves to protect my hands and arms. I still have scars from trying to prune without gloves! These are great! They fit well, snugly but not tight. They are very well made and protect my skin while also allow me to move my hand in all directions- very flexible. The color is fine and easy to find because of the yellow. I haven't tried to clean them and don't know that I ever will. I kinda like the idea of leaving them dirty so I can see how much hard work I've done! I use them for everything now, not just pyracantha bushes. They're great!

I bought these for my wife and she was so excited to report that not one thorn pierced these and we have a ton of blackberries around our house....I mean acres of them. I really like that they go more than half way up her forearm. They are a little tight for me but I was able to try them out and I can confirm they do in fact work and not once did i have the old "ouch..ouch...ouch" while picking through the blackberries. They are also great for any gardening you might be doing. I would say fit is spot on and they are durable and a major must for roses and blackberries and everything in between. Another thing is that they have a great feeling of grip, tools don't slip and twist and turn on us when wearing them. Good thickness and the purple floral color is just what you see on the Amazon seller page. Best thing I can say is DO IT! Buy them and save your hands and arms.

They are nice gloves. I knew that my expectations were high when I ordered them. I am sure that they work great for rose bushes but they don't hold up to cacti.

I bought these gloves to protect me from my dachshund puppy biting me all the time. One glove has disappeared all together, (maybe she ate the whole thing) and the other one only has four fingers and the sleeve is all tore up and is barely holding on but it'sher favorite thing ib the world. But it's strong and I would definitely buy them again for yard work.

They fit well and seem well manufactured

These are VERY good. We have a lot of brambles at the back of our garden and this is the first pair of gloves that have really allowed me to handle them comfortably. Occasionally you will feel a spike, but sufficiently protective to not be a problem. Will buy again. Note the size comes up a little small, so maybe order a size up.

Bought to cut done invasive blackberry bushes and very happy with purchase, the odd one gets through but well worth the money

Great product

Regularly deal with trimming/removing blackberry bushes from the property perimeter. After years of scratched arms, even with long sleeves and using thick winter gloves to protect hands, I was ready to take the plunge and buy arm length protective sleeves. Then I found these - and they are great. I have worn them on a warm day with only a t-shirt and emerged scratch free. You will get the occasional "ouch" through a finger if handling large, extra thorny branches but I found they offered enough protection to avoid bleeding and cuts. More an "ouch" of surprise than genuine injury. Would certainly recommend, especially at this price point. IMPORTANT - suggest ordering a size up as others recommended. I wear a M size and ordered the L which fits fine.
