Breathable Gloves Great For Gardening
As a landscape architect and professional horticulturist, Harriet Zbikowski searched for a glove that wouldn’t hamper her dexterity or sense of touch. She eventually patterned her Foxgloves off of dress gloves from the 1950’s but with updated fabric that could withstand the harsh conditions found in gardening and landscape work. Today, the gloves are also used by birders, photographers, and more.
Foxgloves Grip are made of a machine-washable and breathable knit fabric that keeps soil out, leaving hands and fingernails clean. It also has a lab-certified 50+ UPF rating to provide maximum sun protection. Supplex® nylon makes the fabric soft, tough, and resilient. Lycra® elastane provides four-way stretch and allows the gloves, available in three sizes, to form fit. Flexible and soft silicone grip ovals give the gloves non-slip gripping power.
Reviewers on the company website give Foxgloves Grip 4.9 out of 5 stars. Verified buyer Drucilla says, “Love, love, love these gloves! My hands stay clean and don’t sweat. The gloves are easy to remove after use and provide great dexterity while in use. They’re super comfortable, and the length is great for reaching into all the spaces. So very happy to have found these!”
Foxgloves are available in 10 colors on the company website, on Amazon, and at many garden supply stores. They sell for $28 plus S&H.
