Key Features of Kew Gardens Gloves

The right glove depends on the task, so it helps to know what each type offers.

• Garden Gloves: designed for comfort and flexibility, so you can handle seedlings, prune and weed without taking them off.
• Gauntlets: longer cuffs extend over the wrist and forearm, helping protect against thorns, brambles and nettles.
• Grip Gloves: textured palms and fingers give secure hold on wet tools, pots and timber.
• Rigger Gloves: tough, hard-wearing construction for lifting, carrying and site work where abrasion is a concern.
• Latex and Nitrile Gloves: disposable, close-fitting barriers for messy or dirty jobs. Nitrile is a common choice for those who need a latex-free option.
• Work Gloves: general-purpose protection for everyday DIY, maintenance and outdoor tasks.

Who Uses Kew Gardens Gloves?

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Kew Gardens gloves are best for thorny plants?

Gauntlets are the better choice, as the extended cuff covers the wrist and forearm where scratches most often happen.

What is the difference between latex and nitrile gloves?

Latex is stretchy and close-fitting, while nitrile is a synthetic alternative suitable for people who want to avoid latex. Both are intended for short, messy tasks.

Are Rigger Gloves suitable for gardening?

Yes, they work well for heavier jobs such as moving stone, timber or clearing rubble, though lighter Garden Gloves are more comfortable for delicate planting.

How do I choose the right size?

Gloves should fit snugly without restricting movement. Too loose and they reduce grip and control, while too tight can cause fatigue. Check the sizing details on each product page before ordering from Tooled-Up.
