They order 2 different brands of these gloves for us at work, one brand is black the other is blue. The blue ones must be made from recycled paper machê finely coated in wax because the second you touch them they rip. Half of them have visible thin spots that will rip removing them from the box.

The black gloves are the GOAT, I've gotten them caught on metal and they don't rip.

I horde the black gloves when we get them in

My organization swapped from some gloves that would let me slip them on with ease if I wet my fingertips first to ones where the powder makes it physically impossible and now I rip a solid 33% of them

The struggle started all over again because good things don't last and accountants are self defeating class traitors 😔

Clench harder so it feels like you're the hulk except you're ripping out of a glove instead of your pants (more socially acceptable)

check the expiry date on the gloves. i bet the blue ones are older. hospital overstock that the states unloaded on consumers

I highly recommend gloveworks nitrile gloves, nothing but good experiences with them both professionally and personally.

Also nitrile gloves degrade with time. I don't trust anything over 3 years old even though since sources say 5 years.
