Ultragloves

True Blues are the Rolls-Royces of rubber gloves. They are made of cotton-lined vinyl, which feels nice on the skin and prevents moisture build up and clinging. These gloves are designed to fit the hand snugly, allowing for control and flexibility when working. Another plus is that they have a textured exterior, which allows for good gripping and no slipping. The gloves are machine washable in warm water and drip dry.

True Blues rubber gloves in three sizes, $10 from Bed Bath & Beyond stores, Linen ‘N Things stores, Williams-Sonoma stores and on the Internet at https://www.cooking.com.
