Package Handler Review Working for Top US Delivery Service
I work for one of the largest package couriers in the US and have tried numerous brands and types of "sticky palm" package handler gloves available on Amazon. I've used the Ironclad EXOT-GIBLK-02-S Tactical Stealth Grip Impact gloves for several weeks now and am convinced these are the BEST from among all I've tried.The thinner, knit types of package handling gloves are okay (even Ironclad's), but they tend to stretch out with continued use and without a cuff strap to secure them will tend to pull away and off of the hands during vigorous package handling activity - a condition which only gets worse as the knit gloves stretch out over time. With the Ironclad EXOT and its Velcro wrist strap closure, this is not a problem at all.As for the "stickyness" factor of these gloves when handling packages for extended periods, they are superb! All of the other gloves I've tried tend to "frost over" with paper package residue thereby reducing gripping ability by over 50% and only wiping the palms or washing them will restore the grip. I used the Ironclad EXOT for over three weeks without wiping or washing and found them to be 85-90% as effective at week 3 as when they were new. Brand new on the first day of use it seemed as though they were "box magnets" and I could palm large, lightweight packages with one hand gripping from two sides of a box. Last night at week 3 of use, I could still do the same.As an added bonus, the Ironclad EXOT has the rubber armor which protects against bumps and impacts. This is a nice feature when dealing with rough conditions and shifting cargo and I'm convinced even saved my hand from more serious injury when I got caught in a conveyer belt transition. Needless to say the glove stitching on one part of the thermoplastic rubber armor and at the cuff has come loose, but this was due to me wrenching my hand out of the conveyor and not related to product quality. Had I been wearing any other knit-type glove, I don't think my hand would have fared as well. :-(Recommendations:- For warm weather use, order to size. They will be tight at first, but will stretch some with use.- For cold weather use, pair with wool glove liners and order the next size or 2-sizes larger (depending on the thickness of the glove liner). I use both the Minus33 (B0065P1PT4) and GI Military Surplus (B07ZQMHYGF) wool inserts found here on Amazon and this combo has kept my hands nice and toasty down to 20F temps and in cold, wet weather.Pros:- Super sticky palm which lasts longer than any other glove I've tried- Thermoplastic rubber armor to protect from injury (see above for comment)- Wrist cuff Velcro strap closure- WONDERFUL custom-feel fit! (I have long fingers and have problems finding gloves which fit me well)- All black finish without flashy logos or materials- Outstanding qualityCons:- A little pricey for an occasional user, but worth it if you want gloves for the long haul which perform superbly, offer impact protection, and will last under harsh material handling conditions- Tend to run slightly small (my hand measures 3-1/2" palm width & according to Ironclad's sizing chart I fall on the low side of size Large, so if you're on the high-end of the sizing range, you might want to size up one)

Good gloves
I use these to work outdoors. They have a good grip, fit snugly, are protective. They are not for warmth but do protect my hands from the worst of the cold. They 100% accomplish the purpose for which I bought them and were reasonably priced for the quality of their build.

Great Gloves
I am a professional Mover and these things are durable and let me keep a grip on everything I carry and move. They protect my hands well. I have owned this set of gloves for awhile now and they are still in good shape after daily use and abuse. I highly recommend these over those cheap gloves.

Did not last
If your hands are going to be in tight places the padding on the back of the gloves will start to rip off fairly quickly
