  "description_short": "Reinforced palm, elastic wrist, and thick enough to handle cut steel without thinking about it.",
  "description": "Most gardening gloves are a coated knit, and for weeding that is the right tool. For anything involving metal edging it is not.\n\nLeather at 1.2 mm gives you a real barrier against a cut edge and against a spike going through the palm, which is the actual injury risk when you are driving 100 mm spikes with a mallet.\n\nThe other advantage is that leather breathes. A coated knit or a rubberised glove traps sweat, and on a long afternoon that is what makes people take the gloves off, which defeats the purpose.\n\nThey are not waterproof and they are not meant to be. Soaked leather gloves should be dried away from direct heat or they go hard.\n\nSize down rather than up if you are between sizes. A loose leather glove is worse than no glove when you are handling small fixings.\n\nDelivery is NZD 25 anywhere in New Zealand, and free once your order reaches NZD 100. That is the rate this shop actually charges, proven against its own checkout rather than read off a settings page.\n\nYou have 15 days to change your mind under this shop's own returns policy. New Zealand law gives no automatic cooling-off period on an online order, so that is goodwill rather than statute: the goods come back at your cost in resaleable condition and a $39 handling fee applies per order. Faulty or misdescribed goods are a separate and stronger matter under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993.",
