String knit gloves are general purpose gloves that offer moderate protection from both heat and cold. They are also known as a "Roping Gloves".
Poly/cotton blends are commonly used in string knit gloves because of their comfort, durability and excellent laundering characteristics. By mixing polyester with cotton, shrinkage can be minimized. Certain nylons have a high resistance to abrasion and provide a synthetic string-knit glove that is lint free.
