Arm-Protecting Garden Gloves

Helping Hands (and Arms)

Gardening is a dirty job—no way around that—but this pair of extra-long gloves can make it a little cleaner and safer. Designed with cuffs that extend to the mid-forearm and cinch with bungee cords, this pair can help protect against flying clods of dirt, prickly plants, biting insects, and sun exposure. Their lightweight cotton twill fabrication is nice and breathable for your hardworking hands, and a touch of spandex adds functional flexibility. Even better, the palms are made from supple, faux leather that’s reinforced at the index finger and thumb for extra weed-pulling durability. After a long day of planting and pruning, toss this pair in the wash to keep them (and their cottage garden–inspired print) looking as fresh as your flowers. Made in China.
