Waterproof glove and boot advice

[Rounder]

I can't take credit for the glove deal, there was a bit about it in "Logger's World" a few years back. One of the best damn tips I ever picked up, and it does work very well with woolies.

Makes the day go by a lot nicer.

I half wonder if that trick will work on Hooded sweat shirts and wool socks too? I already know it don't work on tin hats...

The pitch might add some waterproofing capability. At least your gloves will be grippy.

On the way home at night there's always a row of drying gloves on the dashboard...nothing in the world smells quite like that.

Especially after handling Red Oak :bad_smelly:

buddy of mine told me to wire a coffee can to the muffler on the skidder and when my gloves get nasty toss em in there, kinda like those hot dog cookers for snowmobile exhausts

Just take a small piece of thin wire and tie it to the grill on the skidder and hang gloves on it

Want dry feet, all day, in rubber boots?
Then it's worth the $20 for a pair of XTRATUFF bama sokkets. Fishing salmon in AK, I'd spend the first month of summer, 6 days a week, in my boots from 3am to 9pm!! Turning net in Chalmers sucked!!

I wore cotton socks... Never a wet/clammy foot, until you wear holes in the sokkets that is :msp_biggrin: If I remember right, I'd go through two pair a summer-sometimes three.
