These fingerless mechanics-style gloves have a synthetic leather palm. Synthetic leather is a durable, abrasion-resistant fabric that is lighter and easier to clean than leather. Fingerless gloves protect the palm and back of the hand while leaving the fingers free for better dexterity and sense of touch than full-finger gloves. Mechanics-style gloves have good dexterity and are often worn when performing basic tasks in general maintenance and repair operations.
