MAPA ProfessionalTrident 286 Natural Latex Glove, Chemical Resistant, 0.040' Thickness, 18' Length, Size 9, Black

I bought these gloves simply because they looked like the perfect candidate for lab gloves at a reasonable price, and they did not disappoint. I was a little hesitant because I am more of a size 8, but the gloves still fit relatively well. As a matter of fact, I find myself periodically stretching the gloves back while wearing them, which helps the mad scientist vibe even more. The cuff covers my entire forearm, and the grip felt good as I tried going about many mundane tasks that are dependent on grip, such as turning a door knob or unscrewing a bottle cap.Some things to watch out for, though: The gloves are not breathable whatsoever, so if you wear for extended periods of time your hands and forearms will get sweaty. Also, since these gloves are a bit thick and the latex is not as flexible as cloth or leather, your sense of touch is almost useless without visual guidance (To clarify what I mean, I put on a pair of goggles and attempted to tighten the straps, which were out of eyesight, whilst wearing the gloves and spent a considerable amount of time fumbling about). Of course, hopefully people who intend to use this in a laboratory setting will actually be looking at what they're doing, but you never know. Lastly, washing it with tap water leaves a slight discoloration pattern. I don't know if there is some special washing solution I should be using, but the discoloration is mildly bothersome.

Great gloves. But couldn't get rid of the awful chemical smell inside them.

Smallest size arm-length rubber chemistry/science gloves on amazon. Most others are too large and make wearing them difficult. These don't fit that well, but there is far less extra space compared to a one-size-fits-all pair. I am an adult female with larger than average hands.

Good gloves for both industrial use and for costumes. :) If you want a pair of "Mad Scientist" or Ghostbuster gloves then these are the ticket.

No me agrado que cuando se lavan con agua caliente se ponen grandes

They're the perfect length but a little awkward with the fingers. They're just a bit too short. Other than that, great gloves.

Great gloves. Would be nicer if they were just about .03 thickness, otherwise, perfect.

Looked amazing but was disappointed with the performance. Right glove immediately ripped between the forefinger and thumb. Fortunately, I was just using them I’m water at the time.
