They are not as good as the old ones.

    What gloves do you use? I’ve got a pair of Mechanix gloves that have been wearing pretty well - thicker than my usual gloves (muc-off work gloves) but they haven’t stopped me working on fiddly stuff yet.

      I’ve been using these VGO gloves from Amazon. They’re the best I’ve found so far, but that’s not an endorsement from me, more the best of a bunch of crappy choices.

      I got pretty upset when I took a chance on a $25 pair of what were supposed to be heavy duty Milwaukee work gloves that didn’t last a week.

      I’d be interested in those Mechanix gloves if you don’t mind sharing a link

        I like the fastfit ones - because I’m a sucker I paid extra for the 100% bicycle mechanic ones. We’re a vain bunch haha.

        I’ve heard horror stories about knock offs from Amazon but these have given me no issues. I’ve used them for some harder work but not extensively so YMMV.
