Review on 🧀 Ironclad EXO-HVP-02-S Hi-Viz Pro Gloves, Small: Ultimate Hand Protection for Enhanced Visibility by Niranjan Reynolds

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Newer versions of the same gloves are of poor quality.

I have used Exo Ironclads in the marine industry for several years. The gloves on the right, which I've been wearing for 2 years now, fit great, feel great and are shapely. On the left is a new pair, recently bought to replace another (newer) pair that ended up in a landfill after only a few months of use. Both new pairs I bought seem cheap, tear/chafe easily and do NOT fit nearly as well as my old pair. The fingers of the new gloves are more square (as opposed to round) and fit your hand more like a cheap welding glove. It is much more difficult to manipulate small fittings and/or instruments since the seams are right at your fingertips. The thumbs also tend to cramp at the top when flexed. I don't know why there has been such a difference in quality lately but I would NOT recommend them if you are looking for a glove that fits well. I hope the manufacturer can fix this issue as I really liked the way they worked.

Pros
  • 1 pair of gloves
