Gardeners ask us this constantly: will these gloves keep my hands dry? The short answer is yes. FunJobs garden gloves are fully waterproof, and they stay flexible however damp the job gets.
How the waterproofing works
Our gloves carry a sealed coating that forms a barrier against moisture. You can dig, plant and weed after rain without ending up with soggy hands.
Many gloves go stiff once they get wet. Ours do not. They stay soft, so you can keep working comfortably for hours rather than stopping to peel them off.
That matters most in a wet Australian spring, when the soil stays damp for weeks and the weeding cannot wait.
Reinforced where gloves usually fail
The fingertips are reinforced, which protects your nails and adds real life to the gloves. That is the spot where most pairs split first.
We dip the fingertips twice for that reason. It is a small manufacturing change that roughly doubles how long a pair lasts.
They are also designed by women, for women, so they fit properly through the palm and wrist.
Washing and drying
Cleaning is simple. Rinse them under cool water after a muddy afternoon, then air dry in the shade.
The waterproof layer means dirt lifts off easily. You will not need conditioners or special treatments.
Avoid hot water and the clothes dryer. Heat is what hardens any coated glove over time, ours included.
Waterproof is not the same as sweaty
A common worry is that waterproof gloves trap heat. The backs of ours are breathable fabric, so moisture can escape while the coated palm keeps water out.
It is a balance, and it is the reason we did not coat the whole glove.
