Designed for professionals whose hands are exposed to risk of abrading or even cutting them while at work, the Timberland Pro Taktyl Gloves not only provides excellent protection but also comfort and even style. Tree climbers, whether professional or amateurs, can also use Taktyl gloves as their hands are also vulnerable to injury.
The palm and fourchettes of the gloves consist of flexible and thin polyurethane microfibers. While polyurethane can assume different degrees of stiffness, densities, and hardness, in this case it is somewhere between a soft solid and a low-density elastomer. This means that it is tough yet pliable and resilient, thus it does not affect manual dexterity and that it is not subject to distortion. As it is thin, you can actually feel the texture of the object you are handling yet you are assured that it will not penetrate into your bare hands.
The back of the gloves in made of the synthetic fiber Lycra. This fiber rivals natural rubber in elasticity, but it is stronger and sturdier. This further assures that your hands are in no way restricted in their movements. A breathable water-repellent laminate coats the glove’s back and keeps the hands dry even in wet weather.
A self-fastening elastic wrist secures the gloves and prevents it from getting snagged on the tree branches or twigs or your climbing gear.
For ease of washing, the Timberland Pro Taktyl Gloves can be thrown into a washing machine. It is available in sizes ranging from 7 to 11, but only in the color black.
