Get the good lined leather gloves. Mine lasted 2 months. I had a bungee from my tarp puncture 1 the other day. Held up to my chains just fine though.

Got mine at Walmart $10 and doing pretty good, leather. I think it will reach more than three month... But them chain destroy everything, that's a fact.

I get the Wells Lamont from Walmart. I usually lose them before they wear out.

second on oscars gloves.
used to bu y them for $10 at a certain truckstop. now it's $15. but they're the only ones that actually last.
them walmart gloves don't last me more then 2 weeks if i'm lucky. -
I'd like to find a good pair of insulated rubber gloves for when I have to deal with snow, slush and rain. The ones I've used so far didn't last more than a couple of days, so I'd gladly pay more for some that could take the abuse.

i use mechanix gloves, i get about 4 to 5 month out of them.

I used to buy 3 packs of straight up cow hide gloves for like $7.00---use them until I can't use them no more, then buy another pack. Keep the receipt's and take the deduction.

I like a different approach. I buy the cheaper leather palm gloves like at Harbor freight. I can get those for $15 for a dozen pair. They only last for 2-4 loads and then throw them away a get another pair. A dozen pair last 1-2 months.
Though Lately it's seems these are getting thinner made. Maybe I'm just working to hard.
