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.

Portwest Oak Chainsaw Gloves Class 0 Buffalo Leather
Description
Description
Chainsaw protection where it counts — and freedom where you need it.
Running a chainsaw means your left hand is always closest to the blade. The Portwest A290 Oak addresses that directly. The left glove carries a UHMWPE guard certified to EN 381-7 Class 0 at 16m/s saw speeds, while the right glove stays unencumbered so you keep full control of the saw. Smart design that matches how chainsaw work actually happens.
Key Features:
-
EN 381-7 Class 0 Chainsaw Protection: UHMWPE guard in the left glove rated for saw speeds up to 16m/s. That's the standard that matters when you're working with a live chain.
-
Premium Buffalo Leather Construction: Tougher than standard cowhide. The reinforced palm handles the daily grind of forestry and landscaping without breaking down quickly.
-
Unencumbered Right Hand: No guard on the right glove — deliberate, not an oversight. You get trigger control and throttle feel without compromise.
-
Knuckle Padding: Extra impact protection built in for when branches push back or tools slip.
-
Knitted Cuff: Keeps debris out and holds the glove securely at the wrist. No fussing with it mid-job.
-
EN 388:2016+A1:2018 Rated 3123X: Solid mechanical protection across abrasion, cut, tear, and puncture resistance.
-
CE Category III: The highest CE category — independently verified for life-risk and irreversible injury scenarios. This isn't a box-ticking exercise.
-
Built for Outdoor Industries: Rated for construction, landscaping, agriculture, and forestry. Available in high-visibility orange so you're easy to spot on site.
If you're working with a chainsaw regularly, the Portwest A290 Oak is a serious piece of kit built around how the job actually works. CE Cat III certified, EN 381-7 Class 0 compliant, and constructed from materials that won't let you down on a long day in the field. Order yours at Glovesnstuff.
