Whether you’re looking for soft cashmere, merino wool or sophisticated suede, our curated selection offers the best in class. Comfortable to wear and breathable, they have additional protection for the palm and fingers without feeling bulky, making them a sensible choice for carrying out delicate jobs on dry spring and summer days.

However, heavy duty gardening gloves are essential for providing for protection and support when using tools or doing hard landscaping jobs.
