Best Gloves for flatbedders?

Ya right. The stuff is expensive but its comfortable and holds up real well.

Best part is the pants are stretchy. Helps the gut comfort if you know what I mean.....

 

Why's that?
I thought real men wear pink!

Yeah @superhauler what she said. I used to race karts and my kart had pink on it and my racing suit was pink.


And my truck at the time had pink on it as well

 

The best glove I've found are welding gloves or their slightly thinner cousin, fabricator gloves. They're full leather, no crappy material to give out. The good ones will have double sewn seams, so they don't give up.
I like the large gauntlet cuffs for working with my heavy riggin, helps keep my hands, wrists, and half my forearm protected and clean because they're long enough to go over the first part of my coveralls, no wrist gap.
I don't use or roll straps, so I can't tell you how well they'd stand up to that. I use heavy rigging, so I want a heavy glove to stand up to it. One thing for sure, splinters and slivers can't penetrate them.
I don't use any protectant or treatment on them, just dry 'em n use 'em. They aren't cheap, but they last a long time.
Oh yeah, they suck for working or fixing the truck or trailer so don't waste your time trying that. Get a pair of Mechanix gloves for that job, unless your changing hot exhaust stuff, then they're great!

 

sshhhh! that's our little secret!!

 

when I was first married to the little woman, she did laundry one time and guess what? I wore pink drawers for a while with pink socks. try explaining that to yer co-workers!!
