What features should I look for in strimmer gloves?
Consider grip, protection (from cuts and impacts), comfort, and durability. Touchscreen compatibility can also be useful.
Are cut-resistant gloves necessary for strimming?
While not always mandatory, cut-resistant gloves provide an extra layer of safety against flying debris and accidental contact with the strimmer line.
