Small Gardening Gloves?

[Guest]

I have tracked down the manufacturer for the gloves I use and they make them in small (7) and extra small (6)

Matrix P Grip Seamless Knitted Liner with Polyurethane Palm Coating : Polyco

Unfortunately, I get mine from plumbcentre and they only stock the medium and they have a ridiculous min order with them. If you do go down this route it might be worth giving the manfacturers a ring.

I have a pair of leather ones, ordered from that tree named retailer. I too have small hands, and i was forever tearing the cheaper nylon ones from wilkos.

What's the tree named retailer?

^^^^ I'm puzzled by that too
Can only think of:-
Oaks and Spencer
Little Woods
Dun-Elm................

You have to think like the Hobbit. Haven't cracked the reference myself - best I can come up with is Ashwoods, a garden centre near Bridgnorth; but I don't think that it is that. I'll ponder.

Town & CounTREE? I'm baffled too??

[veggiechicken]

Hobbit may not be back for months - so we'll be baffled for a while longer

Could it be Coppice Garden Centre (in Brummieland, which I notice is where HH hails from)??

Another thread about gloves!! http://www.growfruitandveg.co.uk/gra...ves_79251.html

Bionic make small fitting gloves. They're expensive, but worth it IMO.

Edit: oh, I was touting business for them in that thread too

a decent pair of gardening gloves that would fit?

These Weedmaster Plus are my absolute favourites, and I get through 3 pairs a year on average (I use them every day, for all garden tasks)

It doesn't feel like you have gloves on at all, they give great grip, and the velcro cuff ensures soil doesn't get inside

Aren't you all a helpful lot? Thank you. My husband just asked what I want for the winter festivities and now I have an answer. As for the tree named retailer?? Who knows! Thanks again.

Maybe it was "Treebay"? or just E - bay 'cos Bay's a tree

[VolesAteMyPeas]

I reckon that's it. Bay is a tree after all! She's keeping us all on tenterhooks.

[Hazel at the Hill]

Yep - that sounds about right. Bet that's it.
