The document contains quotes from customers praising the KONG gloves for preventing injuries in various work situations, including when a grinder hit a worker's hand, a sharp piece of tin sliced through another glove, and when a burr lodged in a glove without cutting the wearer. The gloves are said to be durable, comfortable, and able to be washed or dried. The back of the gloves contains impact-absorbing ribs and the fingers and thumbs have flexible rib protection as well.
