Don't forget those suspenders. They are Dickies and can be had on Amazon for $12. I don't work without them.

So, I went to Amazon to look at "White Ox Gloves" to wear while trimming my Bougainvilleas. Now, my Amazon recommendations include: a Burke Bar, a 14oz Titanium framing hammer, a Skil Saw and a carpenters' tool belt...

My Voc-Tec Tool and Die teacher in high school had a special knack for story telling. Every Thursday we'd sit the entire class and he's tell us stories. Kids would skip some days, but NOT Thursdays. Even the wise guys were calm and listened intently. To every word. He was THAT good! I've never met someone so interesting and easy to listen to..........till now. He talked about Machine Tools, Farming, WWII, The Auto Industry, even a little about women and booze. That would have been about 1976. I remember those days fondly, and I miss them and the stories. Your style reminds me of him. Great content, GREAT channel.

But do you use this gloves?

I never thought I'd spend 6 minutes watching a youtube video on something as mundane as work gloves. I've been inhaling your content as much as I can since I discovered your channel... absolutely brilliant. Appreciate your fervor for hard (but efficient!) work, good tools, and your obvious delight at sharing this information with the rest of us.

I tried these gloves on your recommendation and they're fantastic! Seemed to me cotton wouldn't be up to the task of protecting from punctures but was I ever wrong. Spent hours pulling and handling carpet today. Staples and spike strips everywhere. Nothing ever made it through the gloves. Thank you for the recommendation sir and keep up the great videos!

I served in the Navy on an oiler refueling other ships in Vietnam while underway back on the '60s, and we had plenty of winches with wire cable on them. When the wire started wearing out and the individual strands of wire broke, like you showed on the choker, we called those "fish hooks" in the Navy. They were always there waiting to stab your hand good and deep, or rip your hand open. Replacing the wire on the winches was not a job that anyone looked forward to, but it was a necessary evil that went along with serving on a ship in the Navy. It would have been nice to have these gloves (or ANY gloves) way back then! Thanks for the lesson on gloves from someone who's been there and done that!!

Love your testimonial. It's great to get an honest appraisal of a product without it being bought and paid for. Your comments are like what you get from Consumer Reports. Just an honest appraisal of a product and you are showing your care for your viewers safety with your knowledge. Thanks. Have a blessed day.

If you're working in the woods....the only work i do in the woods is rubbing one out

I'm on my 3rd pair and love them for working around the cabin with chainsaw and everything from sticks to small logs. I've also used them around yard here at home in dealing with roses and other sticker type plants and they're absolutely great. Thanks for the tip Scott. Love the channel and all you're skills that I'm adapting to my needs. Keep up the good work, and give Nate a thumbs up too.

Worked in the bush in BC years ago, logging. The company started out buying any kind of gloves you asked for but in short order went to only White Ox. Nobody complained because it's what we all wanted anyway. Right on all points, good in all weather, lasted longer than anything else we tried and took a couple of days to work in but worth that little bit of effort.

Thank you very much. Your production is one of my favorite uses of the internet.

Thank you for your hard work in this life and for sharing your insights with those who chose to follow the path of hard, fruitful, and satisfying work.

This man is a national treasure.

I appreciate the honest analysis. This is one of the reasons that I like your videos so much.

It's incredible how hard it is to find good gloves. When I was in construction, I spent so much money trying to find a pair that would last. The handle on shovels would tear through most of them inside a month. Sometimes inside a week! I tried cheap and expensive and it seemed the expensive ones were the worst. It was almost always in the seams. The palm, thumb or fore finger. I ended up buying a 5 pack of those thick gardening gloves you see everywhere and they actually worked the best. Now that I'm driving again, I need the sensitivity in my fingers for strapping down loads, using keys and locks etc. and I've found the Wells Lamont leather gloves to work great for that. I can get 4 months or so use out of them which isn't bad for the $10 I pay for them.

I've lived in the Pacific northwest for most of my life and have bought White Ox gloves for most of my working career. Logging, construction and machinery maintenance have all been done with them. They are the best all around working gloves I've ever come across.

Where do you buy them?

In the oil and gas industry, we have a very similar and ubiquitous glove not unlike these. Usually come in white, green, and orange. They have all the same characteristics, and pros and cons. Gave a 12 pair pack to both my father in law and father, and they both beg me to buy more every time I see them. You just can’t beat the feeling of a good cotton glove

I found your channel maybe a month or so now. Your content is so engaging and so varied back. Greatly appreciate all the valuable information you share. Anna is such a variety of subjects.

I bought these gloves are watching this video and I absolutely love them. Thanks for the recommendation and a great video.

Thank you for your advice and expertise. I'm looking into an apprenticeship in carpentry, now I know what type of work gloves are the best buy. And if not literally the #1 best close enough then.

Very informative, thank you sir! It's so neat to hear all the particulars when you review anything, because of your wealth of experience. Right now, I'm at the stage where I'm young, strong, and dumb, and I only ever wear gloves when I'm welding or doing rough work in the cold. At some point I'll wisen up and wear gloves to protect from all these little cuts I always get. My wife would appreciate that...

I've never found that perfect pair of gloves....I think I've tried them all....except these. I'll try them after seeing this. A side Note: In the 1970's decade brick masons were in great demand. As a contractor I couldn't wait on them, so I laid my on brick veneer. I found that a brown jersey glove would last for one house (6- 10 days) if you placed surgical tape on the finger tips while they were still new.... worked awesome for the handling/laying brick! ....13

As a Saw Filer I used White Ox my whole career. You couldn't use any type of leather as it was too slippery and if you had a puncture through the leather you get cut BAD. You could feel the teeth coming through the White Ox before they cut you. I, and my co-workers tried many different types of cotton gloves. We had to buy them (through work) and we tried to save money on the cheap ones. Most of the cheap gloves would get a hole in them within hours or the thumb seam would give out. We always ended up going back to the White Ox. Their seams held for the most part and they are double layered on the working side. I would go through a pair of White Ox in a week to a week and a half, benching round saws. Believe me I didn't want to spend that much money on gloves, but you got your moneys worth with White Ox.

Been wearing them two kinds of gloves for 25 years. Your assessment on quality is correct.

I found this channel a few weeks ago while looking for a video about I can't even remember what, and it's quickly become one of my favorites. I've been slowly working my way through all the videos and I've finally figured out who Scott reminds me of...Paul Harvey. I grew up tinkering with my dad around the house while listening to Paul Harvey on the radio and Scott has the same kind of no-nonsense, salt of the earth wisdom that Paul Harvey used to offer his radio listeners but which seems to have all but vanished from our modern world. Really good stuff.

Amazing what you learn from experience.

Thanks for taking the time to share this.

Keep the video's coming for the advice and your enthusiasm for what you do!

I bought a pair of these, even though I don't need new gloves yet. Never occurred to me to use cotton gloves for work, though I know some loggers have for many years. Only time will tell if they will work for me (just got them today). I will say though, that as far as price goes, my leather gloves cost less. $20 for a 3 pack at Costco, and the gloves work great and last pretty long. My new cotton ones cost $14 shipped for one pair, and if I end up buying them in bulk, they will come out to about the same as my leather ones. Doesn't seem as cost effective since one os cotton and the other is leather, but if they work better, then I'm happy to spend the money. I always listen to guys like Scott, and and usually happy I did. Save me a lot of time, rather trying to learn things the hard way.

Always enjoy watching your videos. Thank you for sharing.

FYI, after building a few dozen houses, often with wet lumber, I started using mechanics gloves because they didn’t wick as much water, offered better grip when wet, and I could still grab nails out of my tool belt. Good video, keep them coming, my young sons are glued to your videos.

This channel has become my favorite, quite quickly.

Thanks for the advice and will order some as I go through gloves like water!

dude these old videos have given a different perspective on videos I can do this winter! thanks

Great job Scott. Thanks for the share👍

I agree with almost everything you talked about, my only qualm is mostly particular to me, I have large hands, most XXL sized gloves barely fit. I like leather gloves because they seem to break in easier than most. My hands used to ache for days after buying new rubberized, or canvas style gloves. They were stiff as a board and squeezed my hands with a kung fu death grip. My work doesn't require quite the level of protection as you described but I can appreciate the need for quality heavy duty gloves. Always enjoy your videos!

You are very good at storytelling. I love it when you share your experiences with us.

This is the first time I've heard gloves wearing out faster described as an advantage. "You get to wear new gloves more often." Well, yes, I suppose so.

Good gloves are essential for hard work. Thanks for your input and your video is appreciated.

The point you made on being able to get out of the glove. My uncle was a metal fabricator. Worked for a company that made grain tanks. He was wearing a leather glove. His hand got caught up on a burr. Feeding into a slip roller. It squashed his fingers to the second knuckle before he could hitthe safety switch. I'm getting me some white ox. I love not only your level of craftsmanship, but your philosophy on work. That's the ethic most could learn from. Me included. Thanks.

I needed this for my painting business thank you

Cool, ill have to give them a try.

Great and timely video, as I got fed up with my current leather gloves for being too stiff not two hours ago, took them off due to annoyance and immediately smashed my thumb with my hammer!

I just watched a man talk about gloves for six and a half minutes... And enjoyed every second of it! :)

I mean this in the most respectful way. You look like you are in great shape for a man of your age. I like that these are made in the US and you seem to know what the word work really means to those of us who can actually put gloves to the test. It is hard to find a balance in longevity, affordability, dexterity, and protection. But you seem to have found a great contender for that spot. For these reasons I decided I will buy 2 pair and see what they can do for me in my line of work. I also decided I will subscribe to you for your admirable knowledge and honesty.

Always a very informative video. White Ox, I put them on my to get list. Thanks for another great video.

Thank you for educating me.

Thanks been wondering about those gloves for a long time,finally the answer

Very good review, thanks!

Looks good thanks

My father was a high rigging Forman in the Boilermakers union. He always wore White Ox. Fast forward 50 years later I am wearing the same brand. Probably have 5 pair in the shop right now. Usually hit them with a torch for a sec when they're new. I have all sorts of gloves but I always come back to them.

I got my first pair of white ox gloves as a gift when I was learning to splice eyes in 5/8 cable, have not bought another brand in five years.

Thanks!

I'm 58 years old and have always used gloves designed for the task at hand; leather for fencing, lumber work, shovels, metalwork, axes etc., Specialized mechanics gloves for wrenching, rubber gloves for chemicals, welding gloves for uh welding. After watching this video I purchased a pair of White Ox gloves that I found for $2.99 at the local discount store. They worked great for picking up sticks and handling brush but after a couple of hours of chainsaw work my hands were numb. I had severe cramping. These gloves provided no vibration protection. Nice gloves but they are not the multi-purpose only glove you'll ever need. I will go back to using my padded leather palm rip resistant gloves for chainsaw work.

Good to know, thank you.

This is indeed an excellent wearing model. I'd recommend their model, same palm design, with gauntlet cuffs. Those are great when doing work that can expose the palm side of your wrists to splinters or cuts. Furthermore, if you have sun sensitive hands, these gloves keep you skin from barbecuing on the steering wheel.

I got a few pairs of these White Ox gloves based on this video. These gloves are great.

I'm a big fan of Atlas Therma Fits. Cotton/Poly blend with grippy palm. Great for wet, frozen manual labor. They dry quickly and make lifting easy. Maybe not the best for welding but work in a pinch. My brother wore them when we went up Denali. I'd consider it.

I like the liners, like socks for your hands and good for vibration. They start to grip good once they get a little dirt & oil on em

I have been a fan of these gloves since I started working back in 1984. Excellent work gloves. Made tough for hard working blue collar workers

Oh boy! This channel is a gold mine.

great tips

I went and bought a pair after seeing this video. After two days of use, they are showing wear parts. they also shrunk after getting wet. I have short fingers and my fingers are pushing the tips of the gloves. Developing holes in a couple of fingertips. 12 bucks a pair at a local store.

I've seen Jaggers go all the way through my hand, it's just great when you hear the metal scraping the bone!

Good info. I will try a pair. Gloves are important

We have kind of a a similar style leather glove called the Keiler Forst, similar to these but they are leather palm and SUPER popular, the majority of loggers wear them.

I will have to try a pair. I'm always interested in seeing what they're like. I'm a big Midwest leather glove fan. Their leather is elk and buffalo and they fit tight and last. I'll give these a shot. I'm a big fan of your channel.

I've been using these gloves while working at big box hardware store pulling whole deck orders by my lonesome and theses glove have saved my hands so many times, my only problem is that the work I'm doing they come apart in the thumb/palm seam but by then the fingertips are worn through. Thank you for the recommendation

I prefer leather. But in winter I use Tom Cats, yellow "matted" cotton, maybe a little thicker. I found that ShooGoo on the palms and fingers makes them slightly water proof, little better grip, and miles more wear. Around my area we have TearMender, its liquid latex good for sticking patches on denim bibs, but also good for coating gloves. ShooGoo by the way is basically silicon caulk.

I have found The gloves made for Milwaukee tools has done very well compared to other brands I have worn over the years. Pricey Yes , durability very good. I have never heard of White Oxford gloves until today, I will check them out, thank you!

That’s a double ply quilted palm equating to construction from canvas of 22 ounce thickness. And don’t forget the reconfigured index finger seam gives same protection as wrap around construction.

Just ordered a single pair to try out. Ordered through Fastenal. Price wasn't bad, and I couldn't foresee using a dozen anytime soon.

Good video and promotion of the product, being in construction and renovations for over 30 years gloves are important. Proper gloves for the work at hand are even more important.

Ill have to try them if I run across them. I have a variety of different gloves that I use for different tasks. Some cloth, some leather, some nitrile, and some Kevlar.

You need to create an online store. Your advice is worth getting something for sale. I'm ordering these gloves. And I agree you can do videos on all sorts of things including more on your vehicles. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Thats a good topic, i work as a rigger in the entertainment industry and get through gloves like there going out of fashion, i spend a lot of time handling wire ropes and and chains and its sometimes really hard to find the right type of glove for the job, do far i use Petzl and Beal gloves, which are good for the price, but they're a bugger if they get wet !!

At my summer job we get free pairs of cowhide gloves as needed, I can wear through them in about as quickly as 2-3 weeks depending on the work we’re doing those weeks, I was hoping to find something that could last longer and still has a good grip since the cowhide ones need to be worn in a little to carry things that are really smooth

I always wear the cheap leather with with the fabric gauntlet cuff. Always work, feel nice, smell nice and easy to pull on.

I've been using mechanix gloves for everything for years now I really like the fast on kind because I can take them off one handed by getting the loop stuck on something and pulling off.

I use the green maxiflex on the rare occasion I use gloves. I do alot of electrical in steel studs and grabbing a single tek screw and getting it on my drill tip is nearly impossible. Gloves get in the way so often but after 10 years in the industry in trying to get used to them. The hardest part is breaking them in
