Are there gardening gloves that are thin but won't tear?

Question

I end up pulling off those cotton ones to pull weeds because I can't feel what I'm doing.

Answer 1

I just bought a couple of pair of "Atlas Gloves". They are wonderful for almost anything. They are great for pulling weeds and gardening as you can feel through them. I got them for $5 at a little shop where I get my small engines worked. Someone also told me that Target has them for slightly more. I can even open my knife blade with them on, something I can't do with any other work glove. And no, I have no financial interest in the company.

Answer 2

Those cotton ones don't feel good to me either.

I use leather gloves. I've found nice goat skin gloves that fit well work best for me. They need to fit well.

Usually I don't have my gloves on. Most weeds are not so bad. But the bad ones need good puncture proof leather.

Answer 3

get some rubber gloves and double glove them.
Also you'd like something that can't be bitten through.. by spiders, ticks, etc.
I have some very fine calves leather gloves that are well worn in and I can trust them, they can't be penetrated and I can also make sure that I am feeling what I feel when weeding, or planting.

Answer 4

For the very few times I wear gloves I use three different types, for different jobs . Dry work I use pig skin. Light wet work like mixing chemicals I use the light blue nitrile. For heavy wet work or thorns, I use the heavy black nitrile. I get all of mine from a local farm and ranch store. RScott
