Post by RubberGloveLuv »

I would love to find out what brand of gloves these are and where to get a pair or two for myself and....
They have this interesting grip on dorsal side.

I remember I had a tab open with a close up shot of the grip on dorsal side of the glove, but I cannot find it. I am going to check a few other pc's

Thanks for the reply, however I am still having hard time finding it.

It took me a long time to get hold of these gloves, they're absolutely amazing to try though. Best fitting ever for every finger and the grip pattern is somewhat different, still soft enough but with the triangular shape pattern, it feels great when touched! Not to mention the thickness I think is great! Spontex makes a thicker version with the same mold in red colour, but I think this blue set is still the best!

I had to order them from France through an eBay seller.

Yes, they are harder to find now. Years ago they made them in a shiny pink color, but I wasn't able to get them. I have the blue ones and I have a pair in orange, likely from that same eBay seller in France. They are great gloves and feel very soft despite the grippy appearance.

Sold in the UK as Spontex ‘Wash-ups’ for a very short time (only in Medium:-(), and available through Romm’s favourite supplier hygi.de in Germany.

I still have a pair of the metallic pink ones - they were somewhat different, with a rolled cuff and the rubber was smoother (possibly chlorinated). These have a slightly more rubbery feel (which I personally prefer :p ).

Looks like they has that teal color for a while now, I remember seeing that instead of the blue color. I noticed that it is also a regional thing, some countries would one color while other have another color and some countries would not carry this brand at all >:(( or only a few of their products :'( :scratch: .
