Great gloves for handling plastic bottles

I'm a soda company merchandiser and often have issues gripping plastic bottles and my hands getting messed up by plastic bottles and the caps. (Try picking up four 2 liter bottles by the necks, hundreds of times a day.) I like gloves with anti-slip material on them. I was buying 12 pack, latex dipped gloves every 2-3 months. They worked great, until the latex material wore off, but I was tired of spending money on gloves, repeatedly. I probably spent $100 so far this year.I saw these gloves on a lightning deal and thought I'd try them out. I was a bit apprehensive, at first, as they seemed like they wouldn't help me grip plastic any better. They aren't as good as the latex dipped gloves in term of grippy, BUT they're better than I thought. Being able to use my phone while wearing them is a great bonus. The cuffs aren't too long, and I won't have any irritated skin on my wrists anymore. The velcro closure on the wrists is great and helps keep the gloves from coming off when not intended.I read other reviewers complain about extra material on the fingers and I think that 'extra material' will help keep the fingertips from wearing out prematurely. I had another type of glove that didn't have that 'extra material' and they split at the fingertips after 3 weeks. I've only been using these gloves for 3 days, but I think they'll last quite a while. I have noticed what feels like my hands sweating after wearing them for a few hours, but haven't actually had wet hands when I took the gloves off.Overall, I'm quite happy with them and will continue to use them. If I don't forget, I'll update my review if I experience any major issues with them.

Pros
  • Comfortable, fits perfectly and good grip.
Cons
  • May not be suitable for high-impact activities
