Leather Glove
Leather gloves are classic and durable high-grade protective gloves, exquisitely made of premium natural leather such as cowhide. With thick and compact texture, they feature outstanding wear resistance, scratch resistance and impact resistance, far superior to ordinary knitted gloves. Natural leather owns excellent toughness and ductility, fitting the natural hand curve perfectly.Our leather gloves perform well in wear resistance, tear resistance and puncture resistance, effectively protecting hands from sharp scratches, mechanical friction, minor impact and high-temperature scalds.
Cowhide Leather Wear Resistant Driving Gloves
Blue Split Cowhide Leather Welding Gloves
Made of thick split cowhide leather, with reinforced orange leather palm for extra wear resistance. Extended cuff protects wrists and forearms from sparks & hot slag. Fire resistant, heat insulation, cut & tear resistant.
Cut & Impact Resistant Leather Gloves
This impact & cut resistant leather glove features genuine leather outer layer and HPPE cut‑resistant lining. TPR impact strips are added on the back of the hand to effectively protect against sharp cuts, delivering a soft and excellent impact cushioning.
Sheepskin Leather Impact Resistant Gloves
Split Cowhide Leather Abrasion Resistant Work Gloves
Split cowhide leather work gloves with striped canvas back. Full cowhide palm offers superior abrasion resistance & anti-slip grip. Thick striped canvas back is breathable and dust-proof. Ideal for warehouse, machinery, handling heavy materials work.
How to Choose Leather?
Leather impact-resistant gloves are mainly made of two types of leather: cowhide and sheepskin.
Cowhide is divided into top-grain cowhide and split cowhide. It features excellent tear resistance, puncture resistance and wear resistance, ideal for scenarios requiring strong support and protection, such as welding, material handling and mechanical operation.
Sheepskin includes goatskin and lambskin. It is lightweight, thin and soft, fitting snugly like a second skin. It stays flexible without stiffness when bent and offers a delicate hand feel, perfect for urban commuting, short-distance riding and winter warmth.
What Customizable Options are Available for Impact Resistant Leather Gloves?
These gloves aren’t just for heavy industry; they are essentially “insurance policies” for your hands in any environment where sharp edges or heavy objects are part of the job. Since you’re looking into the development and sourcing side of protective gear, understanding these specific use cases is key to identifying the right market fit.
- Material
You may choose either thick and durable cowhide or soft and comfortable sheepskin according to your application scenario.
- Color
The color of the leather and TPR can be customized according to Pantone color codes to meet your preferred color requirements
- Performance
Performance can also be customized according to application scenarios.
For winter use, warmth and waterproof functions can be added.
For daily life, touchscreen compatibility can be equipped.
For welding work, flame-retardant performance can be added.
What Application is the Impact Resistant Leather Gloves Suitable for?
- Oil & Gas (The “Iron Roughneck” Standard)
In upstream oil and gas, workers are constantly handling drill pipes, heavy chains, and valves slick with “mud” and lubricants.
Why Leather? Synthetic fabrics can absorb oil and become “spongy” or slippery. High-quality goatskin or cowhide provides a natural grip that actually improves as it breaks in.
The Application: Tripping pipe, operating heavy wrenches, and moving equipment where “pinch-points” are constant hazards.
- Heavy Construction & Demolition
While many construction workers use synthetic gloves, leather is the go-to for abrasive tasks.
Why Leather? It has superior resistance to “grinding” wear. If you are handling concrete blocks, rough timber, or rusted rebar, leather won’t fray like knit synthetics.
The Application: Breaking concrete with jackhammers (requires anti-vibration + impact), rigging cranes, and moving heavy masonry.
- Welding & Metal Fabrication
This is a unique niche where synthetic impact gloves usually fail because the fabric would melt from sparks or heat.
Why Leather? Leather is naturally flame-resistant and can withstand heat up to about 430°F (220°C) before it begins to char.
The Application: MIG/Stick welding where you are also handling heavy metal plates that could fall or crush fingers. The leather protects from the heat, while the back-of-hand TPR protects from physical strikes.
- Mining & Underground Utility Work
Mining involves some of the harshest physical conditions—constant moisture, abrasive rock, and heavy machinery.
Why Leather? It provides a “thick” barrier against punctures (like jagged rocks) that thin synthetic gloves can’t match.
The Application: Operating heavy drilling equipment, handling ore, and maintenance of underground infrastructure.
