Synthetics
Synthetic material in gloves is here to stay. As well as the advantage of
greater choice of colors, synthetic gloves are washable and colorfast,
usually more comfortable, flexible and durable. They retain their flexibility
after being exposed to wet and damp, unlike most leather gloves.
Synthetic materials are also always tested for hidden faults insuring that
quality is maintained. Quality, Comfort, Flexibility, Durability, Style.

Kevlar®
Kevlar® is an extremely strong synthetic material that derives its strength
from its weave. It is woven like tiny spider webs. Kevlar® is a special way
of weaving a liquid into a solid.
This is called an aramid weave. Aramid fibers tend to be
difficult to corrode, resistant to heat, and have no melting point.
Leather
