“These gloves are thin and supple and nicely made. However they do not fit well and the poor fit renders them almost useless. I usually wear size large in rubber gloves so duly ordered that size from Seep only to find that their ‘large’ gloves are enormous! The gloves do not fit snugly and the cuffs are very loose and are prone to turning back on themselves and letting water into the gloves, which then drains out onto my sleeves, so I have to change clothes after each wash. I bought three pairs and when combined with postage (to make the order worthwhile) spent £15 for gloves that I cannot wear. I would like to think that the medium size would fit but am reluctant to re-order as I don’t really want to spend £30 on gloves in one month as that is outside of my budget! In conclusion I think the gloves are probably a good product, but I cannot rate them on longevity as I used them three times before giving up in frustration. They do not suit my need but perhaps that is my fault for buying the wrong size.”
Hello, Thank you for trying our gloves. I am sorry that you personally haven't got on with them. Our gloves are one of the first natural rubber household gloves to market in the UK that have passed biodegradability testing (in accordance with ASTM D5511) and we are super proud of this.
Other gloves can afford to have a thicker beads at the top, whereas ours conform to compostability and biodegradability testing, meaning in order to comply we cannot have this very thick elastic band. We do have a slight beaded edge for this reason. As a result, we recommend slightly folding in the gloves to stop them from dropping down.
On our website we do have our glove sizing
Small: palm 9.5 cm / length 30 cm
Medium: palm 10 cm / length 30 cm
Large: palm 11 cm / length 30 cm
Which should help with the correct size you need, and do hope that you will give them another try at a later date.
“Quality of these gloves proved better than I expected, because they feel light-weight, but they are lasting well. Not quite sure about sizing yet, since Medium are tight to take on and off, so going to try the Large.”
We are delighted to hear you like the gloves. Our gloves are one of the first natural rubber household gloves to market in the UK that have passed biodegradability testing (in accordance with ASTM D5511). They are lighter because they have been specially developed to biodegrade, but they should work just as well as other household gloves on the market.
Here are the sizes from our website, which will hopefully help
Small: palm 9.5 cm / length 30 cm
Medium: palm 10 cm / length 30 cm
Large: palm 11 cm / length 30 cm
