gardening gloves

Hand covers, soil

Gardening gloves are protective hand coverings worn while working in the garden.

They shield against thorns, blisters, dirt, and irritants while digging, pruning, or handling plants: I can't find my gardening gloves anywhere.

Styles range from lightweight cotton for weeding to thick leather for handling roses.
