I want you to know that these digitS' have never worn anything like those gloves!

They might help with weeding ...

Personally, I like to wear hospital gloves but getting some larger than "one size fits all" is a problem. I see Amazon has them in x-large ... painter's gloves are okay but more expensive for no longer use.

Yeah, weeding in soft soil doesn't take claws even if gravel tears up the gloves!

You wouldn't want to absently scratch that itch you always get on your nose when your gardening with those on!

My favorites and the only gloves I'll wear (glove snob!) are the Atlas nitrile palmed gloves.
I've been having a hard time finding them locally. All the usual places don't carry them anymore. I looked online and all the vendors that had them said the manufacturer was discontinuing them. :(

I usually don't wear gloves. I do wear leather gloves when doing outside things like building fence, building stuff, anything with splinters or wire.

Oh, I found them on Amazon, and ordered 3 sets of 6 gloves! 18 gloves should take me through to the end of next year. They are by far the best gloves for gardening.

I envy those of you that can get away without wearing gloves, but my skin cracks badly whenever I do. Even with wearing gloves my hands still look best in my pockets.

Here they are. You can get them in black too for more formal occasions.
I'm not actually crazy about most of the colors, I like the apple green and the blue, but you don't get a choice so it doesn't really matter.
