It is important before you begin any home improvement project to ensure you have the proper safety gear on hand. There are some safety items that you simply should not go without. Though it may seem like a no-brainer, a pair of work gloves should be on your must have list. You would be surprised how many scratches, lacerations and punctures we have seen that a good pair of work gloves could have prevented.
A solid pair of work gloves can cost as little as a few dollars up into the hundreds of dollars, depending on the quality of material and craftsmanship. With gloves you definitely get what you pay for. A cheap pair of gloives may be all you need for that small yard project but you will definitely want a sturdy pair of gloves for that demolition work.
Gloves can come in a variety of materials with your higher end gloves made of leather. Your budget glioves will probably be made out of a cloth material. The real leather gloves will be more durable and protect better than the cloth gloves but they will cost you more. We always recommend spending more on gloves, your hands are worth it!
Remember that safety always comes first. You will not be able to finish that project if you are laid up with an injury. A quality pair of gloves can help keep your hands healthy during that big project.
