When roses fight back, reach for proper protection. The Briers Ultimate Golden Leather Gauntlet Garden Gloves are made for the tougher jobs on the plot, from pruning established roses to clearing brambles and tackling thorny hedges. A supple leather hand gives confident dexterity for tool work, while the extended suede cuff shields the wrist and forearm so you can reach deep without the usual scratches.
The glove body is crafted from quality leather that is naturally durable and resistant to abrasion. A reinforced palm panel adds extra security in the area that works hardest, helping you keep a steady grip on pruners, loppers and barrow handles. Inside, the smooth finish sits comfortably against the skin, so you can wear the gloves for longer sessions without irritation. An elasticated wrist helps the glove stay put and reduces the chance of soil and debris working its way in as you move.
The long gauntlet cuff is the star here. It creates a practical barrier against thorns and rough stems along the wrist and lower arm, giving you the confidence to work in borders and hedges plus around rambling climbers. Despite the extra coverage, the gloves still feel balanced and manageable, so you can tie in stems, deadhead, or position canes without feeling clumsy.
These gloves arrive ready for real work and will soften and mould to your hands with use, gaining character over time as good leather does. Care is simple. Brush off dry mud after use and allow to air dry naturally away from direct heat. An occasional wipe with a leather balm keeps them supple season after season.
If you are building a kit that covers all the essentials, pair these gauntlets with your favourite secateurs and a sturdy trug. At AllotMate Essentials we recommend them as the go to choice for thorny tasks when standard gloves are not quite enough.
Why We Love It
Sometimes you need more than a standard glove. These Briers gauntlets give proper arm coverage without feeling bulky, so you can work confidently among climbers, hedges and old rose frameworks. They are tough, comfortable and smart looking, the pair we trust for thorny days on the plot.
