What gloves do you guys use? Getting through them like no tomorrow. Tried the rigger type gloves but they get manky too quick and all black from the carbon fibre pole. Tried other types similar to marigold thinner ones but not thick enough. All gloves also are far too hot to wear at the moment.

Anyone recommend any cooler summer type gloves? If so where from?

Thanks.

I have used many and find these the best . Some on this forum recommended then and I find them good .

I buy biking gloves, gel padded. Yyour fingers are free, the gloves breath and in this heat you dont want heavy or full gloves on. They are relatively cheap to buy and currently lasting me about 3/4mnths and i work mon to fri 4 wks per month.

+ 1 very good winter gloves and comes in very handy for clearing gutters out by hand. Also very good at grip for getting stuck cf guttervac poles apart too but are a wee bit too warm for hot summer days.

Does barrier cream stop dog poo going between your fingers when reeling in just before its time to eat your butties?

Maybe then use damp disposable cloths on the hose when reeling in instead of using yer gloveless hand as a guide. 

I've also got hot water on tap, hand soap, bacterial hand gel and barrier cream in the van so can wash and treat my hands anytime I need. Oh forgot to mention also gloves and disposable overshoes (not just for inside work) too

Not everyone has hand washing facilities , so the next time you reel in with a damp cloth , the dirt on the cloth will go on your hands

You can also buy a bag of rags dirt cheap and just throw them away afterwards if contaminated with cat or dog poo etc.
