Any tradders wear gloves?

The only gloves i found i could trad well in are the blue nitrile disposable ones like mechanics and medical staff wear

Amazingly they are very warm as they make a barrier from the cold air and water which is a definite combination for cold hands

 
I bought some gloves in screw fix, they are like a rubber material on the outside and a soft warm material on the inside, cost me a tenner but they keep your hands nice and warm

They would be showa

I know people who use them wfp and say they are great

For me it is the lack of dexterity i don't like

Need to be able to feel what i am doing

 
I have and will be using bare hands as usual unless it is below zero all day

 
the black gardening gloves I find great to work in, they are rubber with a fleece lining, a bit of material on the top. You can bend your fingers easy, I find these work best after having tried a few different ones. They are about £6-99

 
Don't know if any good for tradders but used these for the first time today recommended by jimmyboots skytec gloves brilliant gloves gonna order some more just in case anything happens to these one.

Good, warm pole gloves

 
For maximum feel I can recommend what electricians calls "installation gloves", they are thin and slightly rubbery. Not waterproof though, so might not be for you if you dip your hands in the bucket all day. (Why would you).

I keep two pairs and swap them out when wet, leaving them on the heater vents in the car makes them lovely toasty. The smell is not always that popular though.

 
What???? I am in gloves as soon as August is over, thats what living in Cornwall too long does to a northern boy.
I wear the thin nitrile, or similar, all the time, except if it's very hot, to keep my hands clean!!
