Solidur FRMAGF gloves come from Solidur, a French workwear and protective-equipment maker. They combine a PU and nylon glove with foam pads on the palm, which Solidur says limit machine vibration and prevent blisters, plus a 5 cm cuff with an elastic band and hook-and-loop closure to keep debris out.

Why padded gloves?
A petrol brush cutter’s handlebar buzzes constantly. Padded palms take the edge off that and reduce blisters on long sessions, and a light, grippy glove gives better control of the throttle than bulky leather. The foam isn’t a certified anti-vibration rating, though: what really limits your exposure under UK rules is how long you use the machine — see brush cutter vibration and HAVS.
Where they fall short
Thin PU and nylon won’t stop thorns as well as leather or resist cuts like a rated glove. For clearing brambles, pair them with leather work gloves for the clean-up; for handling blades, use a high cut rating such as the Vgo cut-resistant gloves. Always stop the engine before touching the head.
Fit
Choose a snug fit so the glove doesn’t bunch around the trigger. See the best safety gear for brush cutting for the rest of the kit.
