Milker's Helpers milking gloves from Summit Glove.

Provides superior dexterity, form-fitting comfort and supports hand muscles against stress and fatigue during milking. Uses rice starch powder to reduce hand irritation and soften skin. 10" length; 5 mil palm, 6 mil finger; blue. Box of 100.
“Durability is the main thing I like about Milker’s Helpers. We’ve used these gloves almost two years. They save us time, money and aggravation. Instead of going through 3 or 4 pairs during a 2.5 hour milking, one pair of Milker’s Helpers lasts the entire milking. They don’t tear like other brands. Even though they’re a little thicker than other gloves, there’s no weight to them. I don’t even notice I have them on. I definitely recommend trying these gloves.”

"We can go a whole milking on one pair (of Milker's Helpers gloves), where before everyone was using three to four pairs to get through a milking. Since we're not going through as many gloves now, we're saving money. Plus, we don't want to be messing with gloves when we're trying to milk. These are great gloves for daily farm usage. I even wear them while doing the hoof trimming. Milker's Helpers are also easy to take on and off. They go on nice and they don't tear."

"These gloves last a lot longer and our milkers really like them. They are more comfortable and more durable. Before we started using these gloves, we were wearing two gloves per hand. But with Milker's Helpers, there is no doubling up on gloves. They fit really snug, so it almost feels like you're not wearing a glove at all when milking or doing chores. Before, we'd go through 100 nitrile gloves in a week's time. Now, we're down to half that much, even better than that. There's a great cost savings in a more durable glove."

"We were once on a farm with a 360,000 SCC, but for the past two years in a row, we averaged 125,000. The quality bonus is money on the table and we take pride in producing quality milk. To achieve it, we're aggressive on details, like making it mandatory that everyone wear gloves - all eight full-time and three part-time milkers, including myself. Milker's Helper's gloves are the only gloves we use. We've had other gloves given to us to try, but the guys really like the Milker's Helpers. They like them a lot and so I get no resistance at all to wearing them. My wife and daughter also like wearing them to feed calves. Once they're on, you don't even know they're there. They are durable gloves that fit snug, so we don't get them caught in milkers."

"Our milkers are really happy with the way Milker's Helpers gloves fit and the way they stay on while milking. The durability of these gloves has also made a difference in our savings."

"No other gloves come close to the Milker's Helpers. They last longer, work better
and are more comfortable to wear."

"The nitrile gloves we used before ripped real easy. We milk 6 hour shifts, 3
times a day in a double-8 parlor, and I had noticed the help was going through
gloves left and right. They were switching pairs 2 or 3 times per milking.
With Milker's Helpers, now we get through a whole milking on one pair. These
gloves are really saving us money."

"Milker's Helpers last a lot longer than other gloves. We save $1500 per month in
glove costs. Other gloves would tear so often. Our employees would constantly
change or double-up on gloves because of the tearing. But the Milker's Helpers
really hold up. They make the milking go much smoother."

"We like the fit and we don't have to double up on gloves for milking and other chores. Even the guys in special care love the Milker's Helpers because they have a better feel for their tasks. We cut down on wasted gloves and save money."

"In Milker's Helpers we have found a glove that pleases everyone at our three dairies, including the calf ranch. These gloves simply fit better and last longer. They are competitively priced and allow us to manage a simple inventory."

"Good grip, good feel...These gloves work as hard as I do."

"I like the thick finger and durability of the Milker's Helpers gloves. They withstand the daily demands of hoof trimming. These gloves are not just for milkers."
