Are they OK and comfortable for men's hands also?

Yes. My husband uses it often and says, "it's the best pruner we've ever owned."

Absolutely. We use these in the vineyard as opposed to the Felco 8 because the blade and anvil are easier to get around the canes without hitting the wire.

Hello! Amazonhappy....The Swiss do an excellent job in designing for utility. Unless you have extremely large hands (basketball player?), you will probably find these pruners comfortable for even an extended session of pruning in your garden. I have just compared the handles on my Felco F-6 Classic pruners and my Felco F-2 Classic Pruners...and the handles are the same. The only difference is in the weight of the pruner itself. The F-6 is for lighter pruning, roses, vines, shaping shrubs whereas the F-2 is for larger canes and branches before getting to required "lopper" dimensions. Since I respect my pruners...if I get to a cane or branch too large, I use the F-2 pruner and when I get to the "lopper" sized branch...I stop and get one of my loppers...and I've benefited from that habit, as my pruners continue to serve me well after all these years. [There's an old Chinese Proverb: IF YOU WOULD BE HAPPY ALL YOUR LIFE, PLANT A GARDEN."] Happy Gardening!! "P.S. I love you "name"...I too, am very happy with the retailing miracle of Amazon!!!

Yes they are comfortable. I think they will be fine for larger hands too. The grips have a good ergonomic design

Yes, I would think so. They are my wife's pruners, but I have used them a number of times and found them comfortable. I used to wear a medium glove but with the current common sizing I now often wear a large. Hope this helps.

I have medium sized hands and they are fairly loose to wear. Not so loose they want to slip off, but comfortable.

They are big for my hand, but not SO big they would fall off. I think they made an extra effort to fit men and women.

I'm sure men or women could wear them....I like mine..Worth the buy in my opinion..

Yes, they are large I suppose in order to fit all hands. My hands are medium sized and they're big on me but still easy to use. I like that they have a soft inner lining.

Well, I'm a woman and they fit my hands. They're a bit big but not to the point where they're unusable.

Yes, the gloves are designed to protect your hands from cuts. They work well for my husband.

I would think so. They are pretty lite. I have arthritic hands and I can manage them.

I wear a large in women's gloves and they are not too small for my hands. If anything they are slightly loose, but fine for what I use them for (mostly cleaning kitty litter).

I have fairly large hands and these fit me well. It might fit a little weird in between the bases of your fingers. It's really not that bad though since they stretch. If you are planning on using them solely for typing and not for layering/outdoor use then you might want to get something more comfy like isotoner gloves (drawback would be that they aren't as breathable).

Yes they are and they don't feel uncomfortable to hold either. Hope this answers your question.

Well, not really but they are plenty big enough. I have big hands and they are fine for me.

I wear lg and they allow movement. If you are smaller handed there's some looseness but still very usable.

they are sized for men. I got a Large and it fit ok for my hand, which measures 9 inches around the knuckles...Just to give you an idea.

I'm 5' 11" and of medium build and these gloves are "roomy". Not so much that that I have a lot of space at the ends of the fingers, but they are certainly not a tigh fit. Unless the guys you are buying these for have really thick hands or very long fingers, I can't image that these could be too small. I would be more concerned about them being too big for some women and some men with slender/smaller hands.

I'm an adult male. I wear a size "large" glove. These goleves are too small for me. They would be a good fit on a medium hand
