Why Choose Leather Safety Gloves?
Leather work gloves are widely used for suitable material-handling, loading and general industrial tasks.
Different glove designs may provide useful durability, flexibility and protection against friction and abrasion.
Leather gloves can be a practical option for workers handling timber, cartons, tools, equipment and other rough materials.
However, leather construction alone does not establish a specific cut, heat, chemical or electrical protection rating.
Types of Leather Safety Gloves in Kenya
Different leather glove constructions are designed for different handling conditions and levels of protection.
1. Single-Palm Leather Gloves
Single-palm leather work gloves are commonly considered for general handling and suitable industrial tasks.
They may suit workers who need practical hand coverage for routine handling activities.
Check: Leather construction, stitching, fit and protective performance.
Browse Leather Work Gloves →2. Double-Palm Leather Gloves
Double-palm gloves use additional leather reinforcement in selected palm areas.
These designs may be useful for appropriate heavy or repetitive material-handling tasks.
Check: Reinforcement placement, abrasion performance, comfort and fit.
View Double-Palm Leather Gloves →3. Rigger-Style Leather Gloves
Rigger-style gloves are commonly used in suitable construction, loading, industrial and general handling tasks.
Different models may combine leather palms with fabric backs or protective cuffs.
Check: Palm material, cuff design, grip, sizing and required safety ratings.
Enquire About Rigger Gloves →4. Heavy-Duty Reinforced Leather Gloves
Reinforced work gloves may be considered where repeated contact with rough materials increases wear.
Reinforcement can affect the durability and flexibility of the glove.
Check: Workload, grip, reinforcement and documented mechanical performance.
Browse Heavy-Duty Gloves →5. Leather Welding Gloves
Welding gloves are a specialist leather-glove category intended for suitable welding processes.
Their performance requirements differ from ordinary leather handling gloves.
Check: Welding suitability, thermal performance, cuff coverage and dexterity.

EN 388 and Mechanical Protection for Leather Gloves
Leather glove buyers should evaluate the actual protective performance required for the task.
Abrasion Resistance
Relevant for gloves handling rough surfaces and materials that may wear down the glove.
Cut and Puncture Risks
Leather alone does not prove adequate cut or puncture protection. Compare tested ratings when these hazards exist.
Tear Resistance
A relevant mechanical performance measure when gloves may encounter material stresses during work.
What Does EN 388 Mean?
EN 388 is a standard used to assess specified protective-glove performance against mechanical risks, including abrasion, cutting, tearing and puncture.
Different leather gloves can have different ratings. A glove should not be described as certified without product-specific documentation.
How to Choose Leather Safety Gloves
1. Identify the Work
Establish whether the task involves construction, loading, maintenance or general material handling.
2. Assess the Hazards
Consider friction, abrasion, sharp edges, puncture risks, heat and liquids.
3. Compare Construction
Review single-palm, double-palm, reinforced and other glove designs.
4. Check Worker Sizes
Suitable sizing supports comfort, dexterity and secure handling.
5. Verify Performance
Check the required mechanical ratings, product documentation and actual suitability.
6. Plan Replacement
Account for wear, glove damage, workplace conditions and replacement needs.
When Leather Work Gloves May Not Be Suitable
Ordinary leather gloves are not universal protection against workplace hazards.
Sharp Materials
Tasks involving sharp metal, glass or blades may require gloves with verified cut resistance.
Explore Cut-Resistant Gloves →Welding and Hot Work
Welding requires process-appropriate thermal protection rather than ordinary handling gloves.
Welding Gloves Kenya →Wet or Chemical Work
Leather work gloves should not be assumed to resist chemicals or prolonged wet exposure.
