I work a horse ranch in Colorado. Use these gloves every day they’re strong. They have major dexterity to the point where I can grip little items like screws and carabiners and gate locks. They look great I get compliments all the time they match my bison boots. The girls at the ranch call them my Rip from Yellowstone gloves!!! That’s a compliment all in itself! Will definitely buy more!
I’m always looking for USA made alternatives to the imported options mostly found in many big box stores. I came across these bison gloves and they looked like good quality/price. I work on our farm and need a sturdy pair of gloves, something comfortable is nice too. I ordered two pairs and when they arrived i very happy at the quality, fit, feel of these gloves. In addition to being happy with my purchase in the package was a receipt and hand written letter from Cecil thanking me for my purchase, there was also a cute patriotic bison sticker. Three weeks into my purchase and i have worn them every day, our area here in KY received some unusually cold weather and the gloves were put to the test. So far, after three weeks of normal/heavier usage they are holding up fine. I am at the point of ordering another 2 pair just so i have them on hand. Nice job Herd Wear and Cecil!
Herd Wear bison utility gloves in black are extremely well make woth high-quality overall craftsmanship and detail. These run true to size.
Great glove and great customer service.
These are sooooo much better than the gloves I'd been getting at the hardware store or Costco. Better in every way, and well worth the extra money since I wear them so often. The leather is thick but somehow I have surprisingly good dexterity in them. Ill absolutely buy more.
For a work glove these are very soft and comfortable. After getting my first pair I ordered a second pair to keep in my truck as a driving glove. Probably the most comfortable work gloves I’ve ever owned.
A while ago I left my gloves on the horse trailer. Like a fool, I drive off only to realize I lost my gloves when I got back the farm. I was so determined to find my favor gloves that I walked 2miles along the rode that I had traveled until I could find my lost work gloves! These damn gloves as so good they are worth walking up and down a winter road until I could find them. I got several pair just in case I do something stupid again !!
I have bought 3 pair just to have them as they wear out. This is a great work glove.
Glenn: Thank you. It really is a great glove and excellent bison leather. Looks like you might be working for quite a while! Best wishes

Fit well, comfortable from the beginning (no break in rqd) Just got them, don't know about durability yet, but suspect they'll wear well
Awesome work glove. Heavy duty, but soft and supple. Surprising amount of water resistance too. I'll be working in these for many a year.
The fit is good. Not tight and not loose. Almost every finger was perfect except one or two where the glove was a little longer. The reason for the title is because, at least I did, you think it will be stiff and it is not. At least not overly to make it hard to wear. Then you imagine it is not suited for dress but it can pull it off. It has great attributes. It is not a winter glove but because of the thickness it protects the hand from freezing. Impressed with glove and the service. Very decent glove. I can’t speak about durability but for light use and/or with a liner it can serve for many years in different capacities.
I have used these extensively on my farm. They are the toughest gloves I have ever used and out last a cow skin glove. I highly recommend them.
Doc: It's a bison farm ... they have to be up to the challenge. Stay safe and well ... and as before, thank you!

These Bison Leather gloves are comfortable, warm and will last a long time. The grainy Bison leather also looks great !
Great as a gift or for yourself...
Are these unlined?
Jonathan: Good Monday morning. Yes, these Midwest bison leather work gloves (all the Midwest Gloves we carry), are unlined. Let me know if there are any other questions.
Cecil
Two questions. First, do you know the leather weight of the Midwest model 650 gloves (are they the same or heavier than the black bison leather gloves from Midwest)?
Second, when I clicked 3 pair of the Midwest black bison leather gloves the price remained at $37.50 per pair and you are offering them at 3 pair for $100. What's up with that?
Hi and good questions. Second part is easier ... but it should have been in the product description (and is now, thank you). We just refund the difference to you as we would have to set up umpteen combinations and each a separate "product". No problem with the 3 pair for $100.
As to the leather weight, it seems to me that it is just slightly heavier ... but that's not a scientific measurement. It is thicker than the tobacco bison leather that we get from Midwest .. and is actually the nicest bison leather (by grain look, flex and softness) of the gloves we get from Midwest. Stuff is always returnable should you get them and be happy.
Hopes that helps:
Cecil
