CLC Custom Leathercraft 140XL Pro Framer Glove

Initially came across these gloves and thought it was quite cheap and didn't expect much when I purchased them. I had bought them together with another slightly more expensive pair of gloves called Black Rhino and when I compared them, the CLC one was obviously much better in quality. I use the gloves mainly to carry stuff or climb trusses when I setup lighting equipment. These gloves really work extremely well and when I showed some of the crew those gloves, they immediately asked where I purchased them. The response was so good I made a group purchase and bought another few more different types to save on shipping. Really satisfied with all the CLC gloves so far, I'd highly recommend them.

While I would have preferred a smaller cuff like the Ironclad line, these seem to be a bit better quality (translated means will last longer than my Ironclads) and the fit is not as tight as IC- which means less hand energy just to move the fingers. Good fit and feel for the XL size- the ring finger length is proportioned accurately so that finger does not wear thru prematurely. I am a very hard user when I wear gloves and these are lasting about 2X longer than IC before wearing thru at the thumb and index first finger joint locations (tool grip pressure points).

CLC Pro Framers are my favorite work gloves. I appreciate the durability and washability of the synthetic materials, the terry cloth thumb back and Velcro closure. This newest version includes knuckle protection padding that makes them a little bulkier than my old pair, but it's a nice feature. In regards to durability, these gloves are appropriate for medium-to-medium/heavy work. With daily use, I wouldn't expect more than a year out of them. This is mostly because of the fingerless seams. I imagine they'd get worn out.I use these gloves for occasional work as a stage hand for touring arena shows, and the fingerless section is perfect for accessing the bolts on stage light clamps, plugging in cords, and setting safety pins. Simultaneously, they provide enough protection for the heavy lifting associated with that kind of work.

This are great to wear in mild to hot weather on the ATV's. Having the fingers open allows me to take pictures or use the phone when I stop with ease to take pictures without having to take the gloves off. Also hands aren't quite as hot. Realize this isn't the intent of the gloves and it doesn't leave some bare skin, but better than not wearing gloves or having to take them on/off often.

Great quality gloves, and comfortable. Will be buying more of these in future, although I expect these to last a fair while.
