Strong and lasts ages

Excellent product

Good quality but I think I need to get a bigger size . I have swollen fingers due to arthritis and I need a bigger size to be even better quality. Also found then useful gardening as well as cleaning.
Verified product owner
Wish I had been able to choose the size as M is too big for me!
Verified product owner
Happy to have a kilo than small packages!
Verified product owner
Unfortunately they are not as comfortable as they used to be. They are a thicker glove and cramp in between my fingers near my knuckles, unlike the previous green ones in the same size and they are not such a nice colour in blue. I probably will not purchase them again, because of this. I do hope Traidcraft brings back the previous ones.rn

Great fit and eco-friendly.

Really good long lasting rubber gloves, just the right thickness and great grip both dry and wet. would give 5 stars if Traidcraft would also do them in small and large though... not everyone is a medium, and size makes a huge difference to comfort.
Verified product owner
Very good gloves but I have small hands, some others find these fine but if you are used to "marigold" small size then these are looser & do allow things to slip
Verified product owner
Great products, also great prices
Verified product owner
An excellent pair of gloves, they are sturdy and fit my small hands well enough to handle all cleaning tasks. They smell nice when newly out of the packaging, too.
Verified product owner
Strong gloves, quite close fitting but I like that, standard gloves are always on the large side and can make it awkward to hold things. Last a long time too.

Good but a bit too small for me; it’s a shame they are so hard. 5p get hold of in large.
Verified product owner
Good product. These gloves do the job they need to do, and seem to last well.
Verified product owner
Good alternative to non-fairtrade products.
Verified product owner
Work well and are as robust as I need.
Verified product owner
Always useful and last much longer than supermarket brands
Verified product owner
I like their ethical credentials, but noticed that they do have a tendency to get holes in quite quickly. I will still buy over less environmentally friendly ones though.
Verified product owner
Great, hard wearing, perfect for all rubber-glove tasks
Verified product owner
Good value for money
Verified product owner
Perhaps they don´t last as long as other gloves, but they are good quality and I value that they are fair trade, plus, being soft, it is easier to get a good grip while washing dishes.
Verified product owner
I've had these often.
Very reasonably priced and fairly long lasting.
Verified product owner
The medium size is quite tight and with arthritis in my hands it makes removing them quite painful. So out came the baby powder( not talc) and they are now useable.
Verified product owner
These work great for cleaning and washing the dishes!
Verified product owner
Great product, great price; but no need for the plastic packaging!
Verified product owner
Excellent value and a quality item.
Verified product owner
Great design, good fit (though may be a bit small for male hands). Only improvement would be to get rid of the plastic packaging!
Verified product owner
Good product.
Verified product owner
I have used these before they are extremely durable.
Verified product owner
Came as size medium, which fitted me fine but might be a bit small for larger hands or male hands without slender fingers! Cool colour and good price. Would be nice to do away with the plastic packaging though.
Verified product owner
Very good quality and comfortable
Verified product owner
Good product which lasts well.
Verified product owner
Very good value for money will stick with this fairtrade brand.
Verified product owner
Comfy. I seem to get a lot of holes in them, but might just be me. Shame just one size and come single-wrapped in plastic, but good and same price as other gloves.
Verified product owner
unusually good and comfortable rubber gloves
Verified product owner
use these every day - last well
Verified product owner
Great quality. I have a good stash of them now. Might be handy if they had them in different colours for different jobs (so I've put an X in waterproof pen on the ones I use in the bathroom!).
Verified product owner
Good quality gloves that I'm sure will last a while and they arrived quickly A*
Verified product owner
Last well, would be good if there was a large size too.
Ethical product, which is good value for money and durable!
Verified product owner
My partner & I used to hate buying rubber gloves knowing how the rubber is produced. These are the perfect answer and they last a long time too.
Verified product owner
Long wearing- and when past washing up, useful in the garden!
Verified product owner
I love these gloves, I always buy these when they are on offer in Asda and now I am very happy to have found them on this site.
Verified product owner
Almost make washing-up a pleasure!
Verified product owner
Customers like these glove an think the quality is good
Verified product owner

Verified product owner
I like them being fair trade but they don't seem to last long before getting a hole
Verified product owner
Good fit.
Verified product owner
They're too small for me but they sell well
Verified product owner

Good - seem stronger and longer-lasting than cheaper non-fair trade ones bought in pharmacy.
Verified product owner
Excellent product. Good for it's purpose and caring for the environment and Fairtrade.
Verified product owner
just love to promote fair trade and these do what i need them to
Verified product owner
This is the first time I have brought these gloves and so far they are proving good.
Verified product owner
Had used them before...
Verified product owner
Great colour, but a bit on the large size for those of us with small hands.
Verified product owner
Had these before. Extremely good.
Verified product owner
I lvoe these gloves! Hard to find easy in supermarkets.
Verified product owner
Good quality; better to know they're fair trade.
Verified product owner
Very important to my eco group in school to encourage staff to seek out environmentally friendly versions of as many products as possible. Have been supplied to housekeeper and staffroom.
Verified product owner
GOOD BUT RELATIVELY EXPENSIVE
Verified product owner
Fit perfectly and don't leave a talc residue on your hands after use :)
Verified product owner
Excellent
Verified product owner
they're fine, good ethics and product lasts quite a while.
Verified product owner
Fit well and good quality gloves.
Verified product owner
Slightly less flocked than I'd anticipated, but still going strong.
Verified product owner
Good quality, practical and don't have overwhelming rubbery smell
Verified product owner
Lovely thick gloves that last a long time.
Verified product owner
Last much longer than other brands
Verified product owner
These last really well
Verified product owner
I wish these came in small and large sizes.
Verified product owner
use again and again
Verified product owner
Perfect fit - feel nice too
Verified product owner
Not great. Developed holes after a couple of wears which was disappointing.
Verified product owner
These gloves are worth the price as they last far longer than any of the other popular brands found in supermarkets. I have been purchasing for 3 years since receiving a pair as a freebie with my order, and they are good quality and I'd recommend them.
Verified product owner
I bought a pair of these but found them to be too tight. One of the fingers broke off after a few weeks of use because I had to pull so hard to get them off. The only other ethically sourced glove I can find is the "If You Care" brand. I don't like those as much as these because the cuffs tend to roll down, but they are my only real option as these gloves just don't fit me.
Verified product owner
These gloves are good quality but are only available in medium which is too small for me - I'm a bloke with not-particularly large hands.
Verified product owner
Fits well (I wear medium ones usually anyway) does the job it is meant for. :)
Verified product owner
These last longer than any rubber gloves I have ever brought from a high street supermarket, they are snug but personally I like that.
Verified product owner
I've bought two pairs of these rubber gloves now, and for ordinary washing up and cleaning, there're fine. Perhaps for specialised use like a carer these are too clumsy,but otherwise I think they do an adequate job.

Q: So it uses fair trade rubber, good, but what about biodegradability???rnI'm rough on gloves and hate sending holed fingers to landfill
A: Hi,
Thanks for the query. Unfortunately no, these gloves still use the common-found rubber you find with other non-FairTrade gloves, which is not biodegradable.
Hope this helps,
