L H Dottie Co 285M Deerskin Reinforced Work Gloves

Product Description

The L H Dottie Co 285M is a top grain deerskin work glove with reinforced construction, designed for trade professionals who need reliable hand protection during installation and service work. Top grain deerskin is known for its combination of durability and tactile sensitivity, allowing workers to handle fasteners, fittings, and tools without sacrificing feel. The reinforced design adds extra material in high-wear areas, extending the service life of the glove. These gloves are sold individually as a single unit and are suited for electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and other tradespeople working in demanding environments.

The 285M is appropriate for general trade work across residential and light commercial applications. Typical use cases include pulling wire, handling conduit and fittings, working with sheet metal, and operating hand tools on job sites. The reinforced zones make this glove a practical choice for repetitive gripping tasks where standard gloves wear through quickly. Tradespeople who work in tight spaces or with small components will benefit from the dexterity that deerskin leather provides compared to heavier synthetic alternatives.

Installation Notes

Inspect gloves before each use for cuts, tears, or compromised seams that could reduce protection. Replace gloves when wear-through is observed in reinforced zones. When working near energized electrical components, verify that gloves meet applicable OSHA and NFPA 70E requirements for the task at hand, as leather work gloves are not rated as arc flash or electrical insulating PPE on their own.
