Garden Gloves

Garden gloves protect your green thumb, as well as your other digits, from thorns, blisters, scrapes and scratches that are a common occurrence in the garden. The most inexpensive gloves for gardening are made of a vinyl/cotton blend and cost only $5 online. While they're cheap, vinyl gloves will crack and tear due to the effects of weeding, pruning, raking, planting, potting and mulching, and they likely won't last the season or be very comfortable to wear. Good-quality leather garden gloves, on the other hand, are more expensive, (approximately $25 online) and they will provide longer wrist protection, plus added durability and comfort.
