Gloves get serious: new task-focused glove range from Burgon & Ball

This autumn Burgon & Ball is launching a curated collection of six essential gardening gloves. Covering core gardening tasks without overwhelming shoppers with choice, the new range has been designed to present must-have gardening gloves in an easy-to-shop format.

The range has been created to complement the top-selling Love The Glove and Dig The Glove collections. The new designs have been developed to outperform everyday gardening gloves, using materials including puncture-resistant leather, organic cotton and recycled fabrics.

For lighter gardening tasks, a versatile Seed & Weed glove and a General Purpose glove offer dipped palms for good flexibility and grip when handling small tools and delicate plants – even when wet. Extended cuffs give good wrist coverage. Taking olive green as a base colour, both designs are available in an understated stripe, and a softer, more decorative floral design.

Next, a Rigger glove features a puncture-resistant suede leather palm for the toughest garden jobs. This glove incorporates recycled materials. This glove offers both stripe and floral options.

Two variants of leather glove give the shopper choice without overwhelming. A Leather Palm glove features a soft neoprene cuff for comfort, with backs in recycled polyester. Palm and key wear areas are in premium leather, and a wrist tab gives a snug fit. This glove is available in both stripe and floral options. For more demanding jobs, a Leather Workwear glove in plain olive green is a full leather design with a soft fabric gaiter to keep out debris.

Completing the line-up, a Leather Gauntlet gives reliable protection for tackling roses and other thorny shrubs. Puncture-resistant leather protects the hand, while a deep striped cuff in organic heavyweight cotton gives maximum forearm coverage.

This task-focused range aims to simplify buying gardening gloves, both for the retailer and for the shopper. The carefully curated range of essential gloves makes it easy for the gardener to choose the right glove for the job. The combination of advanced performance, premium quality with contemporary design hold compelling shopper appeal. The surprisingly affordable price points make the range irresistible.

RRPs range from just £5.99 up to £17.99, and comprehensive sizing options take the range to over 40 SKUs. A bespoke stand solution increases visibility, simplifies product selection, and clearly communicates each glove’s purpose, supporting stronger in-store engagement and trial.
