The Advanced Protect Glove M8 is built specifically to close that gap, adding a dedicated wrist guard to a glove that already handles grip and comfort well. \u003ch6\u003eThe palm: microfiber with a TPR grip texture\u003c\/h6\u003e The palm is made from 98% microfiber with 2% TPR (thermoplastic rubber), a combination that pairs a soft, tactile base material with small raised grip points across the contact area. TPR is commonly used in work and sports gloves specifically because it adds friction and grip without needing a full rubber or latex coating, keeping the glove lighter and more breathable than a fully coated design while still holding onto tool handles and canes securely. \u003ch6\u003eComfort lining, not just a functional layer\u003c\/h6\u003e This range specifically calls out comfort lining as a feature, and it shows in the construction. Rather than a bare synthetic interior, the glove is built with an added lining layer that makes it noticeably more pleasant to wear over a longer session, reducing the friction and rubbing that can build up inside a glove during repetitive hand movements. \u003ch6\u003eThe neoprene cuff and wrist guard\u003c\/h6\u003e This is the standout feature of the range. The cuff is made from 100% neoprene, the same flexible, snug-fitting material used in wetsuits and sports supports, chosen here specifically for its ability to hug the wrist firmly while still allowing a full range of movement. Built into that neoprene cuff is a dedicated wrist guard, giving genuine support to a part of the hand that takes a surprising amount of strain during repetitive gardening tasks like digging, raking, or hedge trimming. For anyone who's ever finished a long session with an aching wrist, this is the feature that actually addresses it. \u003ch6\u003eThe back: kept light so the glove stays wearable\u003c\/h6\u003e The back of the hand uses a 98% polyester, 2% elastane blend, kept deliberately lighter than the reinforced palm and cuff. This balance matters: if the whole glove were built to the same protective standard as the wrist guard, it would quickly become too stiff and bulky for practical use. The polyester and elastane back keeps things breathable and flexible where heavy protection isn't needed. \u003ch6\u003eWhere the M8 earns its keep\u003c\/h6\u003e This is the glove for repetitive, wrist-intensive gardening work: digging, raking, hoeing, or any task involving repeated twisting or gripping motions over an extended session. It's also a sensible choice for anyone who's previously experienced wrist discomfort or fatigue after a long day in the garden, since the wrist guard is specifically designed to reduce that strain rather than just protect against cuts or abrasion. \u003ch6\u003eSizing: the medium, and who it suits\u003c\/h6\u003e The M8 measures roughly 24cm in height and 10.5cm in width, sized to suit the majority of adult hands. Because the neoprene cuff needs to sit snugly against the wrist to do its job properly, getting the size right matters here more than with a looser, less structured glove. If you've previously worn a \"medium\" in other structured or supportive glove ranges and found it fit well, the M8 is a sensible starting point. \u003ch6\u003eLooking after your gloves\u003c\/h6\u003e The microfiber and TPR palm, along with the polyester and elastane back, are generally straightforward to keep clean with a gentle hand wash. The neoprene cuff, much like a wetsuit, benefits from being rinsed after use and allowed to air dry naturally rather than being wrung out or dried near direct heat, which can affect the material's flexibility over time.","brand":"Briers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54209976369490,"sku":"5050642088787","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0808\/6260\/9746\/files\/advanced-protect-gardening-gloves-protective-gloves-for-tough-garden-tasks-gardening-gloves-4540033-5050642088787-briers-shop-now-at-allotmate-essentials-8774170.png?v=1770772397","url":"https:\/\/allotmate-essentials.com\/products\/advanced-protect-gardening-gloves-in-medium-protective-gloves-for-tough-garden-tasks","provider":"AllotMate Essentials","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
