NATURALLY GOOD FOR HANDS & PEOPLE.
If You Care Household Gloves are made from FSC Certified latex —a natural rubber sourced from a responsibly managed plantation. Furthermore, the rubber tappers who cut the bark to get the raw material flowing, have received a fair trade premium, and it is their decision how to spend their extra income.
Unlike other brands, If You Care Household Gloves are reusable, made from 100% latex and contain no fillers so they are dependably strong and perfect for a variety of uses like dishwashing, house and bathroom cleaning and gardening. If you're allergic to latex, try 100% nitrile gloves.

BORING (BUT USEFUL) STUFF
Use & Care: After each use, rinse outside of gloves with soap and water. Let air dry. Do not put in dishwasher. Avoid contact with fuel or other corrosive chemicals (wait you're an eco warrior... you don't use chemicals!).
Disposal: You can compost these gloves by cutting them into small pieces with scissors.
Approximate Sizing: Measure across palm
3" = small
3.5" = medium
4" = large
Note: Jennifer's hand is 3.25" and both the medium and small work. If you're on the line, you could go up a size.
