      Man it's a bummer that these VGOs must have caught wind of your video, they are now double the price and a few reviews seem to mention that the quality has now changed, it's even flagged as a frequently returned item. I feel like the new "best bang for your buck" for 2025 has to be the ironclad with how well it performed on wear but that too has went up a few bucks. Hoping to will go back down. It would also be cool to see you revisit this with another round of glove testing.

      @@michaelweems679 Yeah which is unfortunate, I have mixed opinions about their hand tools as well. If they’re gonna branch out into other categories they should make sure they’re delivering the same superior quality or just don’t bother. There’s plenty of average and cheapo brands making basic tools and supplies already, we don’t more options in that market segment. I use my tools for work and although I extensively research all of my purchases, it’s really nice when you find brands that you can trust the quality of anything they stamp their logo on. Researching ahead of time is always good practice but it can also be extremely time consuming, if I need a power tool I don’t have to do that anymore because I know exactly who to buy. I want the same thing for all my purchases. Although for hand tools I’m very impressed with Tekton so that’s somewhat solved. Just wish they were for sale at Home Depot, time is money some days.

    I have some iron clad general gloves. Got them for Christmas one year and they’ve protected my knuckles well. No tears or defects yet and I have my sweat wipe/iPhone finger. Good review

    You need a website and a "Project Farm Guide" like Consumer Reports or Tom's Guide.
    Keep up the great work!

    I actually use those endura gloves at work in a chemical plant environment. One additional plus is they are basically waterproof I actually hose mine off if they become contaminated

    I wish you had added a test for picking up small items. But this is the only complaint after watching most all of your tests, You are doing a great job.

    As a wind turbine technician who has climbed 845,000 feet in 5.5 years the best gloves I've found so far are Petzel climbing gloves.

      I was a boat builder and I used to use these big leather gloves almost like welding gloves without all the extra material, just thick leather gloves that cover the wrist made by a local shop cost me $35 aud
