These work gloves are especially great for working in the garden. The leather keeps thorns and sharp sticks from hurting the hands and they seem to be sewn strongly with double stitching and a reinforced index finger/thumb area. The medium runs true to size and I like the spandex top material which makes it comfortable to put on the gloves and flexes when working. The pink color is not my favorite but it sure does stand out when you put them down in leaves or in the garden. I wish the wrist stitching was lower as my hands are long and it would be more comfortable but that is not a deal breaker. I expect to use these for many seasons.
I really like these gloves. I have a pair of full split cowhide, but they get stiff, and sometimes the back of the hand isn't flexible enough for them to be comfortable. These put the rugged leather on the working side, and the flexibility on the backside in a bright pink so no one confuses that these are mine! The extra reinforcement at the base of the thumb really cuts down on the friction and pressure in that sensitive area when sweeping or raking. The size fits perfectly.
Couldn't have asked for better-fitting work gloves for a woman. The fingers are not oversized - width or length. Very durable with leather. The spandex makes for a nice snug fit. And the reinforced thumb is great for working with yard and hand tools - rakes, brooms, etc. I always get blisters right there! These will last me a long time and that's good - because I want them around for a long time. Like the color and logo on them too.
These gloves are absolutely beautiful and fit for any field of work. Comfortable spandex on the top not restricting the movement of your fingers. Leather backing also covering the tips of your fingers for long lasting wear and protection of hands. We have been hauling mulch and these were perfect for handling the shovel and wheel barrel. Love PINK for any occasion. What a great gift for that hard working lady.
I love these work gloves. I usually use cloth gloves for gardening, but there are certain tasks outdoors that need a tougher glove. I love the look and feel of these... they seem to be very good quality and are comfortable to wear. The color is vibrant. These will definitely protect my hands when I pack bush clippings into bags or do some other chore that requires extra protection.
The John Deere Cowhide Gloves are great. I got them in small/medium and they fit perfectly. Since I am always getting myself into one DYI project or another, I am sure donning these gloves is going to be part of my routine for many years to come. I definitely recommend them.
I have short fingers and gloves never fit. These are as good as it gets for working and not having a lot of extra at the tips of my fingers. They're tough and comfortable and are my new favorite work gloves.
The Split Cowhide Ladies Small Spandex Back Gloves are a well-made product and fit my wife's hands perfectly. They are a GREAT option for gardening and pulling weeds because the pink material on top stretches for comfort (and looks good, too) and the leather palm is sturdy yet flexible. My wife was able to pull thorny weeds without puncturing the leather palm, so these gloves do exactly what they're supposed to do.
She highly recommends these gloves.
I wear size medium gloves and the size medium in these gloves are true to size! The top of the gloves are stretchy for a snug fit while the bottom of the gloves are leather to protect your fingers and the palm of your hands. Good quality. Highly recommend!

Good quality gloves.
The quality of these gloves are great and I would have given them 5 stars had it not been that they were advertised as small/medium and they are actually a medium. I thought since they were spandex that they would fit a small and and stretch to a medium hand but that is not the case. I have small hands and usually only get a size small if there is one out there. Anyway, these are definitely a medium and could possibly stretch to a large hand. They are hard for me to use, since they are a little too big, but I can use them for certain kinds of yard work. They are a little on the spendy side, so not coming in a true small size is a downer for me.
