After over a decade in business, we're getting ready to close the store.

Our specialty has always been high quality goatskin work and garden gloves made in the USA

but the person that does our sewing is retiring and there are no replacements. So that's the end

of American Heritage gloves.

We don't want to sell only imported gloves so we've decided it's

time to close shop and move on.

 

We appreciate all the loyal customers we've had over the years.

We will be having a going out of business sale as soon as we complete an inventory. You can be 

notified when the sale will start by signing up for our newsletter here.

Wishing you all the best from all of us at Bear Wallow Gloves!

 Normally Sell For $57.95 and Now On Sale for Only $37.67!

 That's a 35% Savings!

 Limited to Stock on Hand... When they're gone, they're gone...

  This is a discontinued item... the Protector Comforts are so much more popular than the Original Protectors that we can no longer justify stocking them. They are being sold without the "Snaps, Straps and Rivets"... just a plain cuff (NOT what you see in the photo). You can add the Velcro Cuff Closure Straps as an option for $5.00 when ordering.

  • You'll never have to worry again about your hands and arms when pruning your Rose Bushes or Berry Vines... not as long as you're wearing your "Protector" Rose Pruning Gauntlet Gloves from American Heritage. Yes, they're made right here in the USA!

  • These beautiful gloves are made from soft, yet durable goatskin long considered by the experts to be the longest wearing and have the best puncture resistance of any natural material. You get real protection ...

  • The 12" gauntlets protect your whole forearm, not just part of it and are made from split cowhide that's just stiff enough to stay in place but soft enough to flex with your arm to make working with these gloves a real pleasure.

  • Huge range of sizes ...
    Nowhere else will you find rose gauntlet gloves in sizes ranging from 6 all the way through 13 (that's equivalent to XX-Small through XXX-Large) and half sizes too!

  • Here's a growing list of what our customers are using them for:

  • Pruning Roses
  • Attacking Berry Vines

    Hands down best value for fit, price, quality

    Posted by CCC the workwear eater on Jul 25th 2013

    I completely love the Protector gauntlet gloves I ordered a few months ago. I work at the local riverkeeper district in South Louisiana, constructing wetlands, doing vegetative bank restoration, cutting removing fallen trees & more-- my arms were torn up by briars, sedges, switchgrass, barbed wire & mattresses dumped along the banks...you name it. Now I fear nothing! The gloves dry well after being soaked and are perfect again after a light cleaning and conditioning. The crew I work with are jealous of my gloves and looking forward to the next gear allotment so they can snag a pair, too. I have small hands (sz 7) and HATE when gloves fit poorly, as it makes my job not only harder but dangerous. These gloves fit perfectly from day 1, and put all the other work gloves I've gotten to shame. I have already ordered a pair of "ranch hands" for general use, and they are perfect as well, and a great deal for the money. I was pleasantly surprised at the speed I received my order, the personal note included, and the ease with which I was able to get a question answered directly by Wes. Thanks for making truly great products at a great price.

    Posted by kay on Jun 18th 2013

    We were delighted with our order. It arrived in 7 days and beautifully gift wrapped. A little bit of America in New Zealand now. Thank you so much. Have not tried the gloves yet but they look great. Pruning time soon.

    Original Protector gloves

    Posted by Chip on Dec 31st 2012

    Purchased as a gift for my fiance, who loves the quality and fit. He will no longer get attacked by thorns from locust trees and the like. Thank you for making such a fine product, here in the U.S.A.! Will definitely purchase here, again. Sizing assistance was most helpful, and purchasing form this company is very easy- no Pay Pal, no passwords, no hassles. Delivery was extremely rapid and packaging was very thoughtful!

    These are amazing gloves!

    Posted by Linda gardener on Oct 4th 2012

    I bought these to deal with some wild blackberry bushes in my yard. I decided today to just remove them completely since they weren't very obedient. Not a single scratch on me! These gloves are nothing less than magical when dealing with nasty thorns! I highly recommend them.

    perfect blackberry gloves

    Posted by john maloney on Aug 25th 2012

    i bought these 1 year ago and this year i finally got to use them. they are the most perfect tool for thorn bearing brush i have ever used. i have spent many hours cutting and dragging the cut branches out of dense underbrush. once in a while a slight tip of one thorn may touch your hand slightly, while 99.9% never do, even while squeezing and pulling the thorny stalks vigorously. the measuring instructions are spot on. measure carefully and get the next larger size if you are not absolutely positive you do not need to go larger. i went up to the next size and these fit like an expensive pair of dress gloves. the gauntlets are brilliant, they could not work better. an american made product that shines. i bring these to work just to show my co-workers what i am using for seattle's ever thriving blackberry population.

    Fabulous product

    Posted by M Smith on Apr 5th 2012

    I ordered the American Heritage Protector Gloves, earlier this week and they had arrived by yesterday's mail. I've already used them pulling Thistle from my yard and if I could remember to slide my hand from the bottom up I wouldn't have had any thorns. I'm going to recommend them to everyone.

    Best Gloves I've Owned

    Posted by RichWa on Nov 23rd 2011

    Let me start off by saying I hate gloves; I prefer my hands free. However, my wife and I are in a continual battle against blackberries on our 4 acres. We don't spray, we cut the stem and paint it. This is a task not to be done without gloves if one values his/her skin. I found these gloves about a year ago and have been using them constantly since. I have nothing but praises for them. They give me 98% protection again the thorns; this is way better than any other gloves I've use. They are still in excellent shape unlike other brands I have tried. And they are made in the USA. If I have to wear gloves, these are them. About the only complaint I have is that I wish I knew the leather came from animals who were not maltreated or abused (eg from a CAFO)

    Love the Gloves!

    I volunteer at a Master Gardener Community Rose Garden in Phoenix twice a month. These gloves are wonderful. No more gashes and scratches on my arms and hands. I highly recommend them.

    Exceeded my expectations

    Posted by Patrick on Oct 1st 2011

    The American Heritage Protector Gauntlet Gloves exceeded my expectations as far as quality is concerned, however; although I measured as instructed, the gloves were too small for my hands. I exchanged for a size larger.
