FELCO 705 - Premium Leather Rose Pruning Gloves - Long Suede Gauntlet - Thorn-Resistant Forearm Protection

FELCO 705 - Leather Rose Pruning Gloves - Long Suede Gauntlet - Thorn-Resistant Forearm Protection

Rose gardens, bougainvillaea, and dense brambles punish unprotected forearms as quickly as hands. The FELCO 705 combines premium top-grain cow leather hand enclosures with an extended genuine suede gauntlet and adjustable cuff buckle, delivering thorn resistance with the suppleness needed for prolonged deadheading and structural trimming.

Certified to EN388:2016 (2.1.2.2.X), the gloves balance flexibility and mechanical protection for light cuts and abrasive bark contact. The adjustable nylon strap and buckle at the cuff prevents debris ingress when reaching deep into thorny canopies across five sizes from S to XXL.

Best For: Rose growers, landscape gardeners, estate managers, and floriculturists who need flexible, puncture-defending leather gloves with extended forearm protection for roses, bougainvillaea, and brambles.

Key Features:

• Premium Top-Grain Cow Leather: Soft, flexible grain cowhide maintains tactile sensitivity and excellent tear resistance.
• Extended Suede Gauntlet Protection: Heavy cow leather suede cuff shields forearms against scraping branches and hidden thorns.
• Adjustable Nylon Strap and Buckle: Locking buckle secures the gauntlet and blocks leaves, twigs, and dirt from entering.
• Certified Mechanical Protection: EN388:2016 rating 2.1.2.2.X for reliable protection against light cuts and abrasive contact.
• Ergonomic Professional Fit: Contoured design eliminates stiff pressure points during all-day pruning tasks.

Primary Cultivation Applications

• Rose & Bramble Pruning: Deadheading and shaping roses, raspberry canes, and blackberries without thorn punctures.
• Dense Shrubbery Clearing: Bougainvillaea vines, timber stakes, and overgrown shrubbery with forearm coverage.
• Estate Maintenance: Weeding, planting, and maintenance where vertical forearm scratches are common.

Pro Tip & Maintenance: Brush thorns from suede gauntlets after each session to prevent fibre damage. Condition leather periodically and avoid soaking; wet leather stiffens and shrinks. Tighten the cuff buckle before reaching into deep canopies to keep debris out.

Oversized Item Delivery Options

Since oversized items require special handling, we may need to provide a custom freight quote for your order and will contact you with an updated shipping rate.

Available options include:

✔ Delivery to your closest depot for pickup - default method
✔ Direct delivery - requires forklift on site
✔ Direct delivery with tailgate lift truck (extra fees apply)
✔ Forklift loading at our warehouse (no extra charge if you arrange your own freight)
✔ Direct truck delivery (available in Victoria)

Important Notes:

• Shipping costs vary by location and method
• Because of the forklift requirement, delivery to the nearest depot is the default option and will be the method used unless you contact us to request otherwise.

Business Delivery:

• Business delivery is available for commercial customers only
• If you select business delivery and your products are bulky, it is your responsibility to ensure you have appropriate equipment (including forklifts) to unload products from the delivery truck
• If you select business delivery and you are not a business, you risk your product not being delivered and may incur additional fees to retrieve your order
• Business delivery customers must provide a valid business address and contact information
• Additional fees may apply for failed delivery attempts due to lack of appropriate unloading equipment

Let us know your preference, and we'll arrange the best solution for you!

Important Note on Availability & Shipping

Our warehouse serves as our office and logistics centre rather than a retail showroom. Because we ship from multiple locations and manage high-turnover stock, not all items are available for immediate pickup.

Lead Times:

• In-Stock Items: Usually ready for dispatch the same day.
• Supplier-Dependent Items: Usually take 2–8 weeks to arrive, depending on supplier availability. Products from Adloheat may take 8–12 weeks to manufacture—they are made to order in Australia by a small business, and longer lead times reflect the care put into quality.

While we strive for fast delivery, some timelines are subject to supplier availability and are beyond our control. We appreciate your patience as we source the best quality gear for your project.

Biosecurity & Interstate Shipping Restrictions

Due to strict state biosecurity regulations, we are unable to ship some products to certain states and territories:

• Potting Mixes cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA), the Northern Territory (NT), or Tasmania (TAS).
• Seeds cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA).

Orders placed for these items to restricted states will be cancelled and refunded. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that the items being ordered can lawfully be delivered to their state or territory.
