Caiman 1878-5 MIG and Stick Welding Gloves
These gloves are built for MIG and stick welding tasks using a full deerskin construction on both palm and back. The Gunn cut with a 3-D Kontour pattern follows the hand shape for a natural fit. Premium Grade A leather and a wing thumb design support comfort during extended use. Extended cuffs add 21 inches of overall coverage.
Suited for Welders Needing Full Deerskin Coverage
The left-and-right sizing and large size fit users who prefer a single glove model for both hands. The cowhide cuff extends protection up the forearm for overhead or deep-reach work. Buyers who require a shorter cuff or a split-leather back should look at other styles. This pair is not intended for precision TIG work that demands thinner fingertip sensitivity.
Grade A Deerskin Leather Construction
The palm and back both use Grade A deerskin, a single material choice that determines durability, heat resistance and feel. No other leather grades or synthetic layers are included in the specification. This leather grade is the deciding factor when matching the glove to daily MIG or stick welding demands.

Questions about this item
Will the 21-inch gauntlet cuff still cover my forearm if I keep wearing my current welding jacket with shorter sleeves?
The 21-inch length extends well past the wrist, so it overlaps most jacket sleeves and protects the forearm even when the jacket cuff sits higher.
How can I confirm the 3-D Kontour pattern is giving me the right finger alignment during a weld?
The pre-curved wing thumb and shaped palm should let your fingers close naturally around a torch without forcing the leather — if the glove feels neutral at rest, the pattern is working.
Does the single pair include both left and right gloves, or do I need to order a second pair for the other hand?
One pair contains a left-hand and a right-hand glove, both made from Grade A deerskin with cowhide cuffs, so nothing else is required for a complete set.
