they really are worth the cash....but i do wear under a different pair of gloves to sprotect them from dirt and water
-
they list a load of outdoor trades that might need there gloves we dont even get a mention, but get this....christmas tree sellers do! ??? ;D must be one of the only trades that works less than some of us :D
-
Im not too fussed about the gloves but I was interested in the thermo sole shoe liners until I saw the price...£85! :o
-
if they are like the gloves....they are so so so warm!!
-
can get the same type of gloves for £9.50 in boyes.really warm and waterproof too.only thing is f you use ladders the fingers wear thru quickly.
-
ive bought these cheaper ones before...they dont even come close to the heat from these new ones!!!
plus they last about five minutes!!!
-
they aint waterproof with is no good to me
-
100 pound for a pair of gloves ::)
-
EXACTLY 100 POUNDS ! i buy gloves for about £5 replace them once evryt two weeks over 3 mionths that 6 pairs at £30 cost, are you joking at £100 FOR 100 POUNDS I WOULD BUY AN 18FT CLX !
-
They had some heated gloves that looked the same as these for £9.99 on price drop tv ( go on then, bring on the 'how sad are you' comments for watching, I can take it :0))....£100....geez!

That's not fir, is it?

£100 isnt much for something that makes my hands warm for a third of the year
well worth the cash to me
i can honestly say that when using wfp my hands feel like they have been slammed between two lumps of metal on cold mornings
regarding waterproof...i didnt buy them for trad...only wfp...and they are nice n thin for wearing outer gloves over the top
i was looking at high quality outdoor gloves...hill climbing and stuff....some of these were well over £100....so i thought some heated ones were always going to be better for me
trust me....some heated gloves get well into the £250 mark
the cheap ones dont work..and dont last
-
soirry james but dont you get wet hands when wfp,if you dont then tell me how
and
cheap gloves dont last.!!!!!!!11well the ones i buy are £25 warm and totally waterproof
last a whole winter,plus i use them when mtbiking

£100. but they are not any good to you in this industry.
They are not wterproof, they are to big for trad work and if you manage to find a pair of over gloves to protect them, I doubt whether you will be able to get in or out of your car/van (was going to put van/car but thought it may offend admin)
Cold wet hands and feet are just part of this job for 3/4 months of the year.

jesus...typical of this place
i was trying to help anyone who may suffer with cold hands like i so
i use large rubber gloves to cover them...these are almost like liners...not actual gloves
they work fine...have already tried
cheap heated gloves dont last as i have done 2 pairs of them in one winter
of course they get wet using wfp...but the rubber gloves sort that
i dont submerge them in water at i dont use them for traditional cleaning
every time someone with a low post count writes anything here...it gets put down ffs
thanks for telling me all about this job and how cold it is....ive been doing it for over 25 years!

Your welcome.
In 25 years have you not got used to the cold?
In twelve years I have found after the first couple of weeks my hands tend to acclimatise to it
Now if youve got a way to spot leaking connectors im all ears
