Pyrohide Palm
Pyrohide leather is exclusively manufactured in the UK by Southcombe and is ideal for resistance against heat, fire, water, salt-water, liquid chemicals (including sulphuric acid, hydrochloric acid, caustic soda, ethanol) and Man Made Mineral Fibres (MMMF). The Firemaster Wildland Gloves utilise Pyrohide leather on the palms for greater protection. Pyrohide is used by 51 out of the 61 fire brigades in the UK and retains tactile properties in dry or wet weather.
Kevlar Lining
Each Firemaster Wildland Glove has a Kevlar lining that provides high levels of resistance against cuts or slashes and also prevents abrasion from damaging the glove. The Kevlar lining also features a Viloft yarn plate that helps to wick away moisture from your hands.
Sizing of the Firemaster Wildland Gloves
The Firemaster Wildland Gloves are available in six sizes that should suit the hands of most users. Please measure the circumference of your hand around the knuckles (excluding the thumb) with your hand open and your fingers together, and the length of your hand from the tip of your middle finger to your wrist.
| Size | Circumference (mm) | Length (mm) |
| Size 7 | 178mm | 171mm |
| Size 8 | 203mm | 182mm |
