Leather gloves are ubiquitous in the world of welding/forging/casting etc.
Any alternatives that have long sleeves? I’ve seen some short sleeved kiln gloves which I’ve used, they’re better than nothing but not as safe (especially welding with UV) and tend to be less puncture resistant which is bad in some cases.
I’ve been waiting to try North Star’s gauntlet version of their White Ox glove: http://northstarglove.com/products/3/20/14/%231015
I just got them in a couple days ago, but haven’t had a chance to weld with them yet, so caveat emptor.
