  • One of the best camp tools ever: Welders gloves

    In case you have not discovered this yet, consider adding a pair of welders gloves or lined leather gloves to your camping gear.

    A pair of lined leather gloves or welders gloves allow you to handle any kind of hot pot and even pick up burning branches and hot coals. You can arrange a live campfire with leather gloves.

    In addition, they are good for carrying firewood and logs without scratching your hands.

    In a pinch, lined leather gloves will keep your hands warm in a cold day.

    Finally, leather gloves make pulling tent stakes a cinch.

    You can pick up scorpions and even handle poisonous vipers if needed. (Hold still darling, you are sitting on a water-mocassin. Let me get that for you...)

    Yep. Also handy if you are cooking with Cast Iron. Or at home, using a smoker.

      Welders gloves are good for some people. To me they are combersome. I like to handle hot stuff with tools like pot lifters or a pair of pliers.

        I always bring a pair of mechanics gloves. They're not nearly as bulky, yet are still padded enough to do most of what you said.

            I usually always have a pair of leather gloves with me. Awesome for handling hot pots and cups as well as clearing brush and handling firewood. Also great for rope handling.

              My husband just bought a pair of welder's gloves for work, so now we'll have some for our camping trips - Yay! :D Friends of ours also use welder's gloves at their permanent campsite to take wood from the woodpile to the fire, to avoid spider bites.

                Would you believe I had a beloved pair of heavy hide gloves stolen at a campground ?!!!

                      Yes we use ours all the time. Works perfect for getting foods off the grill.
