They are not as good as the old ones.

    They never are. I go through work gloces at a rate of about a pair every three-ish week, and what drives me bomkers is that it’s nearly impossible to find a pair of work gloves that doesn’t have the stupid touchscreen pads that don’t even last a day. Gloves without the pads are either too bulky or too thin/would last about a day altogether.

    I don’t need the touch pad tips, and what I can’t stand is the slippery fabric underneath the grippy touchpad surface that ruins my ability to grip things.

      What gloves do you use? I’ve got a pair of Mechanix gloves that have been wearing pretty well - thicker than my usual gloves (muc-off work gloves) but they haven’t stopped me working on fiddly stuff yet.
