Ejendals Tegera 295 Waterproof Thermal Work Gloves
The Ejendals Tegera 295 Waterproof Thermal Work Gloves are fully waterproof and promise to keep your hands warm with contact temperature resistance that reaches as low as -30°C, perfect for tackling winter environments or for use in the cold store. Despite their warm and waterproof properties the Tegera 295 do not lose out on grip or dexterity, allowing you to work safely while retaining the grip and movement needed to handle tools, grip materials and carry heavy goods.
What Size Should I Choose?
The Ejendals Tegera 295 are available in seven different sizes, meaning that you should be able to find the size that's right for you. To measure your hand, measure the circumference of your hand around the knuckles (excluding the thumb) with your hand open and your fingers together as seen in the image below.
SIZING ADVICE: We would recommend selecting a size larger than your measurement, as the Tegera 295 Gloves can often be found to be quite tight fitting.
Size | Circumference (mm) | Length (mm) |
---|
Size 6 | 152mm | 160mm |
Size 7 | 178mm | 171mm |
Size 8 | 203mm | 182mm |
Size 9 | 229mm | 192mm |
Size 10 | 254mm | 204mm |
Size 11 | 279mm | 215mm |
Size 12 | >279mm | >215mm |
Will the 295 Tegera Gloves Keep Me Warm in Cold Environments?
The short answer is again yes. The Ejendals Tegera 295 will keep your hands warm because they use an innovative material called Thinsulate, something that is a proven success in allowing gloves dexterity and comfort, but also in allowing for heat retention. In fact, the Ejendals Waterproof Thermal Gloves can be used to handle materials as cold as -30°C.
What is Thinsulate?
Thinsulate, a portmanteau of thin and insulate, is a synthetic fibre developed by 3M that acts as a form of thermal insulation to trap body heat while allowing moisture to escape. It's the microfibres in Thinsulate that prevent the air from escaping, making it an extremely efficient insulator. The gloves feature 40g of Thinsulate, ensuring comfort and warmth.
HOW WATERPROOF ARE THE TEGERA 295 THERMAL GLOVES?
To put it simply, the Ejendals Tegera 295 Waterproof Gloves are fully waterproof. Their outer waterproof lining is as good as it gets, meaning that you can work with buckets of water, in the rain, or with damp materials and the gloves will ensure that your hands stay as dry as a bone!
Don't believe us? Take a look below and see how these gloves fared in the cold water bucket test. See the cardboard afterwards; completely dry!
How Much Dexterity Will I Retain?
You will retain far more dexterity than you would expect from a thermal glove, because the Thinsulate lining is extremely thin despite the warmth that it offers. This means you will be able to continue most manual outdoor work, and unless your work is tactile, your ability to grip tools, carry materials and use machines will not be compromised.
The thin material helps you to retain full use of your hands
Am I Getting My Money's Worth?
The Tegera Waterproof Work Gloves are durable because they use full grain goatskin that can withstand knocks, scrapes and friction. This makes them highly affordable, coming at a far cheaper price than you'd expect for gloves that offer flexibility, protection and warmth. This durability means that there is a less chance they will become damaged in winter and cold environments, perfect for use throughout the year.
Will the Ejendals Thermal Gloves Protect Me From Risks at Work?
We would recommend the Ejendals Thermal Gloves for medium risk applications at work. They are certainly no push over, as they use reinforced thumbs and fingertips to ensure your hands and fingers will stay protected from blisters and other injuries associated with manual work. We would recommend these gloves for most general use, outdoor applications, including:
- Agricultural work
- Airport security
- Arborist
- Building
- Carpenter
- Cold store
- Construction
- Driving
- Forestry
- Gardening
- Greenkeeping
- Hardware
- Ice handling
- Installation
- Logging
- Machinist
- Machine operation
- Public transport

Where the Ejendals 295 Gloves are recommended doesn't stop there, and they promise to work well across most medium risk outdoor environments. They offer a professional and reliable performance across a wide range of outdoor, work based environments, but they are useful should you want to use them for work around the house, garden and yard too.
Handling is a Big Part of my Job, Will I Keep My Grip?
The Ejendals 295 Thermal Gloves feature a goatskin leather palm that works to offer an impressive level of grip. These gloves are designed for use in the wet, cold and slippery conditions that cold weather brings, and as a result there is a focus on providing enough grip that you can confidently handle goods, materials, tools and equipment when completing a task.
WHat do the Ejendals 295 Thermal Waterproof Gloves Feel Like to Wear?
The Ejendals 295 Gloves are extremely comfortable to wear, featuring a synthetic fleece like lining that keeps your hands warm and cosy without restricting movement. As the fit is snug you retain sensitivity in your fingers, enabling you to have total control over the items and tools that you are holding and using. It is worth noting that the gloves are tight fitting in order to provide warmth and dexterity, and as a result it is recommended that you select the size above should you prefer a looser fit.
Do The Tegera 295 Thermal Waterproof Gloves Protect my Arms and Wrists?
The Ejendals are shorter in length than most gloves in order to provide more dexterity to your hands. So if you're looking for some thermal waterproof gloves that have the same qualities as the 295 Gloves while also protecting your wrist, we would recommend you try the Ejendals Tegera 296 Insulated Waterproof Work Gloves. They feature the same impressive features of the Ejendals 295 Gloves, however are slightly thicker with a longer cuff that protects the wrist.
What Happens if my Ejendals Gloves Get Wet and Dirty?
Your Ejendals 295 Gloves will get wet and dirty as that's their job, to protect you from the mud and water that comes with cold weather and outdoor work. If they do get wet, they can take some time to dry out, but don't worry, they will continue to keep your hands dry, warm and clean throughout use.
If your gloves are dirty and you want to clean them, we would recommend washing them on a light wash without tumble drying. Please be aware that this may affect the overall performance of the gloves.

What is EN 388?
You might have noticed that this product adheres to EN standard EN 388. EN standards ensure that the product you are buying meets the safety standards of the European Committee for Standardization (CEN), the highest standards organisation recognised by and working on behalf of the European Union. To pass any EN standard, a PPE product must undergo some of the most rigorous safety tests around.
There are many EN standards that our gloves adhere to. However, the EN standard that we’re concerned about here is EN 388. EN 388 stands for Mechanical Resistance, and informs you of your gloves' resistance to abrasion, cuts, tears and punctures.
How Do I Read the EN 388 Score?
Simply speaking, the higher the score that this product achieves, the better the product will be at resisting that hazard. Products will score between Level 0 and Level 4 for abrasion, tears and punctures, and if they weren’t tested for that hazard you will see N/A written instead of a number.
Cuts are a little different and, with the EN 388 standard rewritten in 2016, it means that gloves will either be tested to cut resistance or ISO cut resistance (sometimes called TDM cut resistance). Gloves tested to cut resistance will score between Level 0 and Level 5, and gloves tested to ISO cut resistance will achieve a score between Level A and Level F with the higher letter offering better cut protection.

What is EN 511?
You might have noticed that this product adheres to EN standard EN 511. EN standards ensure that the product you are buying meets the safety standards of the European Committee for Standardization (CEN), the highest standards organisation recognised by and working on behalf of the European Union. To pass any EN standard, a PPE product must undergo some of the most rigorous safety tests around.
There are many EN standards that our gloves adhere to. However, the EN standard that we’re concerned about here is EN 511. EN 511 stands for all things cold, and means that your gloves have been tested for their convective cold resistance, contact cold resistance and water permeability properties.
How Do I Read the EN 511 Score?
Simply speaking, the higher the score achieved the better the product will be at resisting the hazard tested. For the first two tests (convective cold resistance and contact cold resistance), the product will achieve between a Level 0 and a Level 4. The higher the score the better the resistance, with a Level 0 score meaning that it failed and an N/A score meaning that the product wasn’t tested for this hazard.
For water permeability the product will achieve either a Level 0 or a Level 1. Level 1 means that the product is waterproof, and Level 0 means that it isn't.
