Product Information

Full details

These Husqvarna functional gloves are designed for chainsaw users seeking reliable protection and enhanced comfort. They offer a key benefit of durable, water-resistant leather combined with breathable backhand materials for extended wear. A potential caveat is their specific certification for Class 0 chainsaw protection, suitable for lower-speed applications. Key features include a goat leather palm, neoprene knuckle protection, spandex backhand, touchscreen-compatible index finger, knitted cuff for easy donning, and a thumb patch for improved grip.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for professional logging?

These gloves are certified for Class 0 (16 m/s) chainsaw protection, making them suitable for lighter chainsaw tasks. For professional logging with high-speed chainsaws, gloves with higher protection classes are recommended.

How do I determine my glove size?

Measure the circumference of your palm just below the knuckles. Consult the Husqvarna sizing chart for the corresponding glove size (available in 7-12).

Can I wash these gloves in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather and synthetic materials, and reduce their protective qualities. Hand wash with mild soap and cool water only.

How often should I apply leather conditioner?

Apply leather conditioner as needed, typically when the leather starts to feel dry or less supple, or after significant exposure to water. Aim for every few months with regular use.

What does EN ISO 11393-4:2019 class 0 mean?

This certification indicates that the gloves provide protection against chainsaw cuts at speeds up to 16 meters per second. Class 0 is the lowest level of chainsaw protection certification.

Will the neoprene knuckles affect dexterity?

The neoprene is designed to provide protection without significantly hindering dexterity. However, like any protective padding, there might be a slight reduction in fine motor control compared to unpadded gloves.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel stiff or uncomfortable

Break in the gloves by wearing them for short periods. If stiffness persists, apply a small amount of leather conditioner to the leather parts and allow to air dry.

Touchscreen functionality is unreliable

Ensure the index finger tip is clean and dry. Static electricity can sometimes interfere with touchscreens; try rubbing the finger tip gently on fabric.

Leather losing water resistance

Apply a specialized leather waterproofing treatment designed for gloves. Follow the product's instructions carefully.

Knitted cuff losing elasticity

Avoid overstretching the cuff. Hand wash gently and air dry to preserve elasticity.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent grip due to goat leather and thumb patch.
  • Comfortable for extended use with breathable materials and ergonomic design.
  • Convenient touchscreen compatibility for modern work environments.
  • Durable construction with reinforced areas.
  • Easy to put on and secure fit with knitted cuff.

Cons

  • Class 0 chainsaw protection is suitable for speeds up to 16 m/s, not high-speed cutting.
  • May not offer the same level of dexterity as unpadded gloves.
  • Specific care required to maintain leather's water resistance.
  • Sizing is limited to 7-12, which might not fit all users perfectly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These gloves are ready for immediate use upon purchase. Select the correct size (available from 7-12) for optimal comfort and protection. Ensure the knitted cuff sits snugly on the wrist.

Compatibility:

Designed primarily for chainsaw operations and general hand protection. The index finger is compatible with most capacitive touchscreen devices, including smartphones and tablets.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Hand wash using mild soap and cool water. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents.
  • Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources or sunlight. Do not tumble dry.
  • Maintenance: Periodically inspect gloves for wear and tear, especially on the palm and fingertips. Leather can be treated with appropriate leather conditioners to maintain its suppleness and water resistance.
