Portwest Waterproof Cut D Impact Gloves
If you're after work gloves that genuinely stand up to demanding conditions, the Portwest Waterproof Cut D Impact Gloves deliver exactly what you need. These aren't your standard protective gloves, they're engineered for professionals who work with sharp materials and wet environments where grip and safety can't be compromised.
The real standout here is the TPR pod technology across the palm and knuckles, providing maximum impact protection without sacrificing feel or movement. Combined with Level D cut resistance and an 18 gauge knitted construction, you get exceptional dexterity alongside serious protection. The completely waterproof nitrile coating keeps your hands dry whilst maintaining a reliable grip in both wet and dry conditions, which makes a real difference on site. There's thoughtful reinforcement between the thumb and index finger too, an area that typically takes a battering. The breathable seamless lining means your hands stay comfortable even during longer shifts, and they're touchscreen compatible so you can operate devices without removing them.
Key Features
- TPR pod technology delivers maximum impact protection across knuckles

Recommendations from our Unishore Expert
For roles involving both cutting hazards and water exposure, these gloves genuinely earn their place in your kit. The combination of impact pods and cut-resistant capability means you're covered whether you're handling sheet materials, working in wet conditions, or dealing with both. The palm coating delivers consistent grip performance, so your confidence with tools and materials stays high throughout the day. The reinforced thumb crotch is worth noting, as this takes real punishment in practical work environments, and the reinforcement here extends the working life considerably. They comply with strict safety standards, giving you the assurance that protection meets professional requirements.
