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.

Chainsaw Protection That Doesn't Cost You Control
Working a chainsaw means one hand needs serious protection and the other needs to feel everything. Portwest's A291 gets that balance right. The left glove carries UHMWPE chainsaw protection certified to EN 11393-4:2019 Class 1 (20 m/s), while the right glove stays completely unlined so you can handle the controls exactly as you need to. Built for forestry, arborist work, landscaping, and construction — anywhere a chainsaw is part of the job.
Key Features:
-
UHMWPE Chainsaw Guard (Left Glove): High-performance UHMWPE lining on the left glove, certified to EN 11393-4:2019 Class 1 at 20 m/s. Serious chainsaw cut resistance without turning your hand into a clumsy brick.
-
Unlined Right Glove: No lining means maximum feel. You stay in full control of the chainsaw, switches, and tools — exactly what you need when precision matters.
-
Goat Grain Leather Palm: Goat leather's natural grain gives you a confident grip even in tough conditions. It's durable, abrasion-resistant, and breaks in well over time rather than falling apart.
-
Reinforced High-Wear Zones: Extra leather reinforcement in the thumb crotch and finger areas — the spots that take the most punishment. These hold up where cheaper gloves give out first.
-
Knitted Cuff: Snug, secure fit at the wrist. Stays in place during active work without digging in or restricting movement.
-
CE Certified: Tested and certified by RICOTEST (Notified Body No. 0498). You're not guessing at compliance — it's all documented.
-
Full Size Range: Available in XS through to XXL, so the fit is actually right, not just close enough.
Portwest's A291 is a well-thought-out chainsaw glove that doesn't force you to choose between protection and control. CE certified and tested to EN 11393-4:2019 Class 1, these are ready for professional use from day one. Order yours at Glovesnstuff today.
