Very Good - Gloves

Please note that PLA is not a "biodegradable" plastic. It is a compostable plastic, which means that it only breaks down effectively in compost, i.e. when mixed with dirt and other organic materials, as well as moisture and bacteria. It's not made for backyard composting, but for a commercial facility. We try to avoid plastic as much as possible. PLA is one step closer. While it's not a perfect solution, I think it's better. The gloves fit well and are thicker than cheap plastic gloves. They are smooth with no texture. The seams are stronger than traditional flat plastic gloves and still don't leak. The cuff is lifted on the arm. Oddly enough, they smell like corn. Functionally they are really good. The country of manufacture is unknown. Despite being a UK-based company, Vegware sources materials and manufactures products "worldwide", meaning they are likely made in China.
