Tuff Chix Pink Fleece Winter Gloves |
 |
HoofPrints owner Gina Keesling thoughts about Tuff Chix gloves:
Shown here are two pair that I personally have been wearing for a few years now. One pair is the original sample that I ordered from the manufacturer to try out. The second pair was returned by a customer who wore them for a while and then claimed they didn't keep her hands warm. Now, to clarify: if you live somewhere like North Dakota and are doing chores for hours in -20 degree weather, then these are not the gloves for you. But for the rest of us who don't encounter such extremes these really fit the bill. They're soft, flexible, and give you a LOT of dexterity for a winter glove. I can personally fasten all the necessary buckles needed to tack up and ride without taking them off. I can wrangle supplement bucket lids, dip and measure rations, coil up a muddy, recalcitrant hose - pretty much anything I need to do in the barn. And more: the back sliding door to my barn gets stuck when the ground freezes. Because of the way it's situated, normal digging implements just won't work to clear out the extra dirt and gravel that's accumulated and is heaving up, blocking the way. The best way to do it is with my fingers. I hack at the frozen stuff with a pick to break it up, then rake it all out of the groove with my fingers. I'd say that it's expecting a lot for a pair of $24. gloves to hold up to that kind of treatment for very long, but these two have survived the ritual without apparent wear. The top picture shows what they look like after a few week's hard labor - the bottom pair just came out of the washer. Yes, they clean up that good.

I would have given these 5 stars but they arent really a winter glove -- now having said that, they are a fabulous glove for *chilly* temps and I like them because they double as a riding glove if Im too lazy to change them. I love the pink color too -- makes them easy to find if I drop one! They are pretty durable as well -- Im on my second pair in 3 years.... |

tough chick gloves |

These gloves are very tough and resist water. For low temps you do need to add a hand warmer or a glove liner. I have Raynauds disease so an ordinary person might stay warmer. I use them for barn work and for walking my dog--any outdoor work in the cold. Ive used them for 3 years without any damage to the glovemost last only one year at best. |

I was skeptical, but gave these a try. The sizing chart was spot on and the gloves fit really nice. They are fairly warm, but my hands freeze with the least amount of wind. That’s why I gave them a four. Realistically I didn’t expect them to keep my hands warm in 10 degree Wisconsin winters. But let me tell you, they are rugged!! I’ve done every chore imaginable in these, even splitting and stacking wood, and have gotten them filthy! They wash up beautiful every time and look almost like new. I can’t get over how well they are holding up. If these ever wear out I’ll definitely purchase again. |

Took a few days to break in but now they are the best winter chore glove I’ve ever had - and I’m 76, live in the country with a pony and dog! Very durable and wash well - thank you!
Will look forward to the summer version? |

Great Gloves!
I got over the color pink and discovered they are a great pair of gloves!
They take a lot of abuse and hold up and keep my hands warm! The only thing I do not care for is that tiny dot of Velcro to hold them closed. Nope that dot is a fuzz collector! lol! Overall, love them and will buy them again! How about the color purple!😊 |

I love that you personally try out so many of your items! My best barn items are from you. These gloves have held up very well for me in the barn for Oklahoma winters. Ordering a second pair for my daughter. |

I hated these gloves the first couple of times that I wore them but after they were broken in a little bit I dont know how I ever survived without them! Ive washed them multiple times and they come out looking almost new after each washing and they are 4 years old. If they ever wear out Ill be purchasing another pair for sure! |

THESE GLOVES ARE AWESOME!!!! I ordered my first pair quite some time ago, years. I’ve never been happy with any type of glove I’ve used up ‘til then. I have sensitive skin so gloves are a must for me when I venture outside and Tuff Chix are on my hands from the time I walk out of my house until I’m done with chores whether it is trimming those prickly rose bushes, pulling weeds, working and playing and riding my horses or whatever misc. outdoor activity I find myself charging into. They FIT PERFECTLY !! I have very small hands and have always had trouble finding any gloves that even remotely fit properly. But these are different as they have no gaps nor overly long fingers. They do seem to form to your hands better with each use, and they truly live up to their name. Finally wore out the first pair after 2 years of almost daily use. I now have 4 pair – 2 summer and 2 winter sets of these gloves. I don’t want to ever be without them again. The winter fleece ones usually work pretty well with the cold, but of course if the temps dip way below freezing, I will place a hand warmer to keep my fingertips from freezing while taking care of my horses, Joe and Bella, in those brutal winter temps here in central Missouri. Thank you, Gina, for finding these remarkable gloves. |

I use this gloves daily doing chores. They keep my hands warm when opening cold gates and clean when working outside, with livestock, pulling wet snowy/muddy net wrap off big bales etc. They have good grip. Really are windproof. I have gotten them really really filthy and they wash great. Look brand new and just as bright pink as when I first got them. |

There are some things I love about these gloves. They are very tough--Ive worn mine to do chores for years and they are only now beginning to show a bit of wear. They wash up nicely. Also, they fit my hands well and allow me to open latches, etc. with no problem. However, I wish they were warmer. I happily reach for them in cool and kind of cold weather, but when it gets much below 30 degrees or so, I have to switch to a different pair. They just dont keep my fingers warm during a lot of our Kansas winter weather. |

Not a great glove |
1/24/2020 |
I was excited to read the info for this glove, so I bought a pair. I was very disappointed. First, they were cut funny and didn’t fit my hands well. On the inside of one of the fingers actually rubbed a blister. They did not keep my hands warm. I would have given them a 1 but I do like the color. |

These gloves are perfect when there is a little nip in the air -- I have had mine for about 2 years now and they have proven to be sturdy and easy to work in. |

The name for this item is so appropriate as they are tuff enough to handle farm chores for YEARS. I have two pair that are more than 4 years old. They remain soft and warm through the many wash machine cleanings l put them through. The pink color keeps me looking ladylike during chores and honors friends battling breast cancer! |

Not winter gloves |

A little heavier than the chore gloves but I would not consider them winter gloves. They do not keep my fingers warm but when I pair them with the cheap finger gloves underneath, then yes, my hands are warm. The bulkiness of the two together do not keep me from get the job done. I would still purchase them in future. |

Sadly these didn’t keep my hands warm. They’re good to use for the fall, but when winter comes to NJ, it was time to put them away. |
