Why is your glove blue while others are gray?
Blue is the pro kitchen standard for food-safe prep and handling (used by top chefs, pro kitchens & butchers daily to avoid cross-contamination). Gray is typically a cheaper option for general construction and engineering, not food safety.
ANSI A6 vs old Level 5 Cut Protection—which is better?
Level 5 is an outdated standard, it roughly matches ANSI A2–A3 (500–1,500 grams of force) A6 offers 2–3x higher protection (3,000–4,000 grams of force), meaning it withstands significantly more cutting pressure, ideal for sharp knife work in kitchens
Stainless steel vs glass fiber—why choose steel?
Glass fiber can break and shed particles that contaminate food. Stainless steel is the pro food-industry standard—it rarely breaks, never sheds, and keeps food 100% safe - zero contamination risk.
Can the gloves be washed and worn again?
Yes – fully washable & reusable. Wash by hand in warm water or machine wash (gentle cycle recommended). They maintain full A6 cut resistance after washing, unlike glass fiber gloves where repeated washing can break fibers & reduce protection.
Can I use these gloves for tasks other than food-related work?
Yes – absolutely. They excel at protecting against sharp blades/edges in any task (gardening, DIY, crafting, workshops, etc.). Built food-safe first, but works anywhere cut protection is needed. Highly versatile beyond the kitchen.
