Don’t get held up by weak gloves.

Cheap gloves tear mid-task. That’s frustrating at best — risky at worst. Humboldts Secret Nitrile Gloves shield your hands from start to finish.

"My old 5 mil gloves would split on me halfway through. These 7 mil ones haven’t failed yet, even when dealing with solvents and tools. They’re the ones I trust."

Yes. They work in the kitchen, too. And other answers.

Are these gloves food safe and compliant for kitchen use?

Yes. Humboldts Secret Nitrile Gloves meet food handling standards and are free of latex and powder. They're an excellent choice for safe, hygienic food prep in both home and commercial kitchens, especially for users with allergies or skin sensitivities.

What thickness nitrile gloves should I buy?

Use thickness as your task guide. 4.5 mil gloves work best for food handling, janitorial tasks, and basic household jobs. Choose 7.0 mil for shop work, garage use, or tasks that require more durability. Go with 8.0 mil if you’re working with sharp edges, heavy-duty tools, or need chemical-resistant gloves that won’t tear under pressure.

Are these touchscreen compatible?

Yes. All thickness levels of Humboldts Secret Nitrile Gloves are designed for touchscreen use — no need to pull off a glove just to check your phone or tablet during a task.

How many times can I use one pair of gloves?

For food or medical use, these are considered single-use disposable gloves. But for dry, low-contamination tasks like gardening or painting, many customers report getting multiple wears from the 7 and 8 mil options without issues. Inspect them before each reuse

How do I choose the right glove size?

Measure across your palm and refer to our size chart. If you're between sizes, size up for ease of movement. Our gloves are designed to provide a snug, flexible fit without bunching or slipping, so they stay comfortable for long wear.

Are these nitrile gloves latex-free and safe for sensitive skin?

Yes. These gloves are 100% latex-free and powder-free, making them ideal for those with latex allergies or skin sensitivity. Many of our customers mention switching to Humboldts Secret Nitrile Gloves after issues with hospital or rubber gloves.

Can I use these gloves for automotive work, gardening, or industrial tasks?

Absolutely. Our Nitrile Gloves are widely used by mechanics, gardeners, tattoo artists, and DIYers for protection against grime, solvents, and abrasions. The 7 and 8 mil options are especially popular for automotive and industrial applications due to their toughness and grip.

What are the best nitrile gloves for household cleaning?

For household tasks that involve chemicals, water, or scrubbing, the 7 mil full-texture gloves offer the best balance of comfort and durability. They're thick enough to withstand friction and provide grip on wet surfaces, while still flexible enough for dexterity.

Gloves that don’t quit mid-task.

Comfortable. Durable. Ready when you need them. Humboldts Secret Nitrile Gloves deliver real protection and performance for real tasks.
