Fantastic Mechanical Resistance
On top of their impact protection, the Skytec Torq Gloves are highly resistant to abrasion, cut and tear, making them fantastically versatile safety gloves, suitable for a wide range of dangerous jobs.
Ergonomic Design for Comfort and Dexterity
With such a protective design, you might be thinking that the Torq gloves are uncomfortable or unsuitable for jobs that require finesse.
