Midwest Glove - American Made Bison Leather Work Gloves

I bought a pair of the Midwest Glove bison leather black(ish) gloves and have been wearing them while squirrel hunting out here in northeastern Ohio. Our woods are full of briers which will tear your hands to shreds and pierce most ordinary gloves. These gloves are like wearing steel armor,they make me feel invincible. No more torn up hands! They have my highest recommendation. Thanks.

My Midwest Glove, bison leather gloves fit well and have survived one day thus far of hand-loading 9 tons of large stone into containers. Non-leather gloves never last beyond the first ton. Average leather gloves are usually worn through after 9 or 10 tons. These gloves will have to last beyond 30 tons to be the new record-holder. We'll see.

Gloves look and feel great. Wonderful folks to work with at Herd Wear.

Finest pair of work gloves I’ve ever owned. This is my second pair. I bought my first pair over two years ago. I’ve used them mainly for clearing brush. Despite exposure to briars, gas and chainsaw bar oil, they’re still in great shape. I bought this second pair, just in case I couldn’t find any when my others ‘bite the dust.’ I try to buy products made in the USA. Unfortunately, they’re not always that easy to find. It makes me feel good, to know that I’m supporting American workers! Thank you Cecil!

So far these gloves have held up well after two weeks of handling steel cable in a mining environment.

These are the only gloves I’ll buy. I’ve tried all kinds of other brands and leathers. All other gloves I’ve used last about a month. Now, I confess, I put a pair of gloves through a lot and expect a lot. Everything from pulling briar bushes to pulling barbed wire fence and everything in between. These Buffalo gloves made by Midwest Glove and Gear are the only ones to hold up. They lasted a year and I’m now on my second pair. They run small so get the next size up. I waterproofed mine by putting them on and sticking my hands in a bucket of water, soaking them real good. Then I let them dry on my hands to form fit. After that I put mink oil all over them - especially around the seams - and baked all that in the oven at 175 for an hour. End result is a beautiful mahogany colored glove that’s soft, waterproof, and tough as nails. You’ll love the gloves. Get two pair while you’re at it. You don’t want to be without them.

The American Made Bison Leather Work Gloves by Midwest Glove are excellent. They are strong, elegant (even for a work glove!) and very well made. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and durable work glove that also looks good, feels good, and is guaranteed not to wear out after a few months' regular use.

Special praise is also due to Cecil, who runs Herd Wear Retail. He exchanged the large pair of gloves, that were sent in error, for the correct size in medium without a hitch. He even sent a pre-paid and addressed return envelope for them, and sent out the replacement gloves immediately!

I thoroughly recommend the gloves - and the store - to anyone seeking good quality, American made products.

Thank you, Cecil, for the gloves, and for being so helpful in arranging an exchange.

I love these gloves and cannot recommend them enough.
