Hi everyone!
This my first time posting so bear with me. I'm a college freshmen lighting designer who had been working in theatre since freshmen year high school. But now that I'm freelancing over the summer I'm starting to buy a lot of my own gear to take to load-ins and things of the like.
I'm currently hoping to find a singular pair of gloves that meets all my needs. I am primarily an electrician and lighting designer but I also do carpentry and work in the shop on campus. If I can't find a good pair of gloves that would work for both I am open to buying two pairs as long as we keep in mind that I am a starving college student and would like the least expensive option possible but am not afraid to save up for quality if that's what is needed.
If we could find 1 pair I would want them to be heat resistant enough for focusing and operating a follow spot but also thick enough that I could use them in the shop for safety and loading and unloading wood as well as heavy lifting during load-ins.
I am also curious what people like the fingerless gloves for as I've never tried one before. Any direction as to what you guys like would be great!
Thanks!
Kyle
