Was dubious about buying, a bag, of the beeswift mp1 gloves, as I was actually looking for an alternate brand, I've had gloves before that were all bundled together, where the rubber was too hard and the material like an old rope, the company sent them out really fast delivery, individually wrapped, premium gloves, really happy, top drawer, as these will be stored in the garage, no damp or spider issues, big thanks to George @ gloves & stuff.

The Portwest FR81 Modaflame sweatshirt brings serious multi-standard protection to hazardous environments where flash fires and arc flashes are real risks. Built with inherently flame-resistant Modaflame Knit fabric, this hooded sweatshirt maintains its protective properties wash after wash – the protection is in the fibres themselves, not a coating that fades over time.

-
