Mechanix Wear Durahide Cow Driver Gloves - Brown
Brown gloves developed using advanced Durahide DRY technology. The leather construction protects hands from moisture while providing good air permeability. The gloves adapt perfectly to the shape of the hand, ensuring high comfort of use.
flexible cuff, snap or string opening
The gloves feature a flexible, comfortable cuff that allows for precise adjustment to the wrist. The extended cuff length provides additional protection against cold air entering the glove. The trapezoidal thumb design does not restrict hand movements. Additionally, the model has a snap or string opening enabling the gloves to be slid together, making them easier to carry and store.
Protection according to EN388 standard
The gloves comply with the protective standard EN388-1132X for resistance to mechanical risks, which means:
- 1: abrasion resistance (scale 0–4)
- 1: cut resistance (scale 0–5)
- 3: tear resistance (scale 0–4)
- 2: puncture resistance (scale 0–4)
- X: cut resistance – TDM test (ISO 13997) (scale A–F)
The scales specified in the EN388 standard define the level of glove protection: a value of 0 means no protection, while the highest values (4, 5) indicate the maximum level of resistance.
During testing using the TDM method (ISO 13997), letter designations are used, where A indicates the lowest level of protection, and F the highest.
The X marking indicates that the given parameter was not tested or is not applicable.

Decent work gloves made of leather. They're strong and really protect your hands; you can carry firewood, metal, or work with tools—your palms won't get scraped. Over time, the leather “conforms” to your hand and becomes more comfortable. However, they're a bit bulky for small, precise tasks, and the finger sensitivity is lower. And if they get wet, you need to dry them properly, otherwise the leather gets stiff.

Great work gloves. They are comfortable and durable thanks to the natural leather. Over time, they develop a unique look. I recommend giving them a try.
