I got these for my husband, a preservation carpenter who works at a house museum where the shop space is all outdoors. Over the years, he’s modified multiple pairs of gloves to fit his needs but they’ve never been the right combination of warm & functional. After searching online carpenter’s forums for recommendations, I found Youngstown & got him the carpenter gloves. He loves them! His only complaint is that he wishes the “fingerless” part of the glove exposed more of the finger but he realizes this is a personal preference. He gives them 5 stars & recommends them to any carpenter looking for a high-quality pair of gloves.
