A range of gloves for perfect pruning
This new glove line naturally complements the Swiss brand’s pruning tools. Designed for pruning activities, each glove model is designed with special technical features ideally suited to the ergonomic design of FELCO pruning tools, ensuring perfect control of pruning in all situations.
Developed to protect hands against the risk of minor physical injuries, this range of gloves is available in three models: FELCO 701, FELCO 702 & FELCO 703. When designing these gloves, particular attention was paid to comfort, quality and performance, to cover the needs of pruning professionals, whose safety standards require protective equipment to be used. However these gloves will equally appeal to demanding amateur gardeners.
All three models have particular features making them ideal for different applications.
FELCO 701
Lightweight and comfortable, these gloves made of knitted HPPE (high performance polyethylene) fibre guarantee solid cut resistance. The fingers and palm are coated with nitrile rubber to provide excellent grip and superior strength. Ideal for precise pruning work by winegrowers, landscapers, gardeners, fruit growers or nursery operators.
FELCO 702
Developed to protect the hands during intensive work, these gloves are made from cowhide leather (palm and fingers) and PVC sections to provide the best grip and strength. The lined back is made of Spandex, a stretchy and breathable material. A multi-purpose glove, warm in colder winter work. Ideal for pruning in vineyards, landscaping, or fruit-growing.
FELCO 703
Made of high quality, puncture-resistant leather, these gloves protect against the risk of minor physical injuries. Elastic sewn into the base of the glove provides a better fit on the wrist. Ideal for heavy work, pruning in horticulture, gardening and fruit-growing. Their elegant design is suitable for all seasons.
Each model is available in 4 sizes: S / M / L / XL, corresponding to size codes 8 / 9 / 10 / 11. FELCO gloves will be available from September 2020 through the FELCO distribution network or the online shop on the felco.com website.
