What you'd use it for
The Pro Leather is Setwear's full leather work glove, the one they build for grip, rigging, staging and set construction. Leather runs through the whole glove, with a second layer over the index finger, thumb and palm where a rigger wears a glove out fastest. Crew reach for it when the day is all steel, rope, stands and road cases and they want protection ahead of fine dexterity. The thumb is left smooth so an object still handles cleanly, and the padded mesh top keeps the back of the hand breathing.
Setwear publishes the Pro Leather in two leather colours, black and tan, across six sizes. Both colours carry the same specification, so the choice is crew preference rather than a difference in the glove. Note that these are not touch screen compatible.
