John Tillman 1485XL X Large Thinsulate Review

Every year I give these Tillman gloves to several people as Christmas gifts. We can buckle up or buckle horse haters or hook gates without removing our gloves. The medium worked well for my small hand.

I rarely wear gloves. I've always been picky about the fit. These are the best gloves I've ever owned. They fit perfectly. And they are very durable and warm. These are the only gloves I will buy from now on.

These gloves got off to a great start. I use them to throw frozen loads at work, they were tough and kept my hands warm. However, after 6 months, holes appeared at the thumb and middle finger tips of the left glove. The inner lining is fine, but there are holes in the thicker outer part. They are still "serviceable" but my fingers keep sticking through holes in the glove which is very annoying.

THESE ARE VERY SMALL. I usually wear large work gloves. I wear XXL in it. I couldn't even get into the Bolshoi. and the size XL was too tight. It's like they take a big unlined glove and put a liner in it and then don't adjust the size. These are great cold weather work gloves. If you work with wood or plow, they are ideal.

I build houses and buy a pair every winter. Warm gloves and pigskin are durable, but only for the season. However, the price is quite affordable to buy a pair every year.

I have wide hands and short fingers so it's difficult to find gloves that I can fit in with fingers that are 1/2 to 3/4 inch longer. My hands are very good. They're comfortable and they last. They're not as stiff as a pair of old-fashioned cuffed work gloves, but again, they give you a much better feel for your job. The insulation on them makes them a little firmer than an uninsulated pair, but they shrink well. I have several pairs of Tillman gloves and spares that I can replace when they wear
