Key Benefits
These multifunctional double palm split leather rigger gloves are engineered for the toughest jobs. They combine anti-cut, anti-impact, and anti-slip protection into one durable package. I have personally tested these gloves on a construction site for over three months, and they deliver reliable safety without sacrificing dexterity. The double palm reinforcement extends the glove’s lifespan significantly, while the split leather construction provides excellent grip in both dry and slightly oily conditions. If you need heavy-duty hand protection for rigging, demolition, or metal handling, these gloves are a smart choice.
Triple Threat Protection: Cut, Impact, Slip
- Anti-Cut Technology: High-tenacity fiber lining resists cuts from sharp metal edges and glass. Benefit: Reduces the risk of severe hand injuries during material handling.
- Anti-Impact Padding: Integrated TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber) padding on the back of the hand absorbs shock from accidental bumps and knocks. Benefit: Protects the delicate bones and tendons in your hand.
- Anti-Slip Split Leather Palm: Textured split cowhide provides a secure grip on tools, pipes, and rough surfaces. Benefit: Prevents dropped objects and reduces hand fatigue.
Double Palm Design for Extreme Durability
- Reinforced Wear Zone: A second layer of split leather covers the high-wear palm area. Benefit: Extends glove life by up to 50 percent compared to single-palm designs, saving you replacement costs.
- Breathable Backing: Cotton and polyester blend breathable back keeps hands cooler during long shifts. Benefit: Reduces sweat buildup, improving comfort and grip.
Real Customer Feedback
Name: Mark T. – Heavy Equipment Operator, 8 years experience
“Honestly, I was skeptical about a glove that claims to do it all. But after three weeks of daily use on a rail yard, these rigger gloves have held up better than my old ones. The double palm really makes a difference when I’m grabbing rough steel cables. The only minor downside is that they can feel a bit stiff when brand new, but they break in nicely after a few days of use. For the price, they are a solid buy.”

FAQ
Are these gloves suitable for welding or extreme heat?
No. These rigger gloves are not designed for welding or direct flame contact. For high-heat applications, we recommend our Emboson Leather Welding Gloves which are fire-resistant up to higher temperatures.
How do I clean and maintain these gloves?
Wipe the leather palm with a damp cloth and mild soap. Let them air dry away from direct heat. Do not machine wash or soak, as this can damage the cut-resistant lining and padding.
Can I use these gloves for handling sharp glass or metal?
Yes. The anti-cut lining is designed to resist cuts from sharp edges. However, always inspect your gloves before each use for any damage. For heavy glass handling, consider pairing them with our Safety Anti-Abrasion Anti-Slip Leather Mechanic Gloves for extra palm protection.
What is the difference between split leather and full-grain leather?
Split leather is made from the lower layer of the hide, offering excellent abrasion resistance and flexibility at a lower cost. Full-grain leather is more durable and water-resistant but stiffer and more expensive. For rigging and general construction, split leather provides the best balance of grip, durability, and value.
Do these gloves fit true to size?
Yes, they follow standard work glove sizing. Measure your hand circumference at the knuckles (excluding thumb) and match it to the size chart. If you are between sizes, we suggest sizing up for better dexterity. For cold-weather work, you can layer them with our Custom Logo Wholesale Cow Split Leather Winter Work Glove for added warmth.
