Default Product Review: Kobalt gloves

Picked up some Kobalt golves tonight at Lowes. Price is $9.98 which is about ten bucks cheaper than Mechanix. Fitment is great, they fit like a glove . Price is great. They aren't padded in the knuckles, but I see this as a plus. Smaller hands = easier to navigate. Haven't tried them out yet, but I'm sure they'll serve their purpose.

yeah, you gotta love when your hands are pure black. Some things you just can't do with gloves on, but they work great when you don't want to wash up every 10 min.

I go through 2 or 3 pair per day (latex) but I don't use them for my personal use at home.

How do you do a product review for a product you haven't used yet? I am not bashing you in any way I just don't get it. I may have to get some though for $10 ?

Simple, because I can. I've worked with gloves on before and most brands are the same. This was pretty much just so everyone could find out about them.

yeah but when you work at a lube shop, you dont like it when your hands get permanently tinted black after a couple days of working w/o gloves
