NEW - just in time for Rose pruning
Meet our brand new Donkey Gloves Thornproof, designed especially for tackling sharp thorns without sacrificing comfort or dexterity.

These clever gloves have the remarkable ability to bend even the sharpest thorns beneath your fingertips, making rose pruning far more pleasant than it has any right to be. Their secret superpower lies in the glass fibres woven directly into the knitted fabric, providing targeted thorn resistance without bulk. 
The result? Gloves that are fitted, comfortable and highly dexterous, so you can properly get to grips with the task in hand. They feel light and flexible, and are a world away from traditional heavy leather gloves.
As with all Donkey Gloves, our Thornproof gloves are and, we can confirm, not made from donkeys.

Important note: these gloves are designed specifically for thorns, not prickles. For prickly customers like brambles, we recommend our original, all round award-winning Donkey Gloves instead.

    John

    With spring coming I wanted to prepare for being out in the garden and getting things back on track. I needed a good quality pair of tough gloves and these fit the Bill perfectly.

    They are strong but allow good movements of the hand and therefore dexterity. They fit comfortably and are elasticated and made a a fabric that breathes.

    As the name suggest they are tough and versatile in terms of the uses they have. Whether it's gardening, DIY or even housework these have the strength and flexibility to make the job easier and cleaner.
