Description
Vespid Extrication Gloves EVO & NEO – Lightweight Firefighting & Rescue Gloves
The Vespid Extrication Gloves EVO and NEO are made for firefighters and rescue crews who need strong protection without losing movement. These gloves are lightweight but tough. They protect the palm from mechanical risks and contact heat while the back of the hand gets extra impact protection. You can work with confidence in demanding, high-risk conditions.
Built for Flexibility and Control
Vespid extrication gloves are designed for easy movement.
They bend with your hand, not against it.
The ergonomic shape:
- Reduces restriction
- Increases comfort
- Helps you keep a strong grip on tools and equipment
They are ideal for firefighting, vehicle extrication, and technical rescue work where hand dexterity is critical.
Durable Pigskin Palm & Reinforced Back
The outer shell is built to handle heavy use in tough environments:
- Palm and fingers: Highly durable pigskin for strong grip and abrasion resistance
- Back: Polyester with durable decorative silicon printing
- High-wear zones: Reinforced with robust silicon printing for longer life
- Between index finger and thumb: Natural leather reinforcement for extra strength
This design helps the gloves last longer while staying reliable on every call.
Impact and Heat Protection
Vespid EVO and NEO gloves provide layered protection where it matters most:
- Back-of-hand impact protection:
- EVA foam anti-impact padding over the knuckles helps absorb shocks and bumps
- Palm lining:
- Para-aramid / polyester / fiberglass blend adds cut and heat resistance
- Contact heat protection:
- Certified to EN 407:2020, Level 1
They can withstand contact temperatures of 100°C (212°F) for at least 15 seconds without a dangerous temperature rise inside the glove.
This makes them suitable for work around sharp edges, rough surfaces, and hot materials.
Comfortable, Functional Cuff Options
You can choose between two cuff styles based on your job and preference:
- Vespid EVO:
- Elastic cuff with an inner wristband to help keep out dirt and debris
- Vespid NEO:
- Elastic cuff made of laminated neoprene with a Velcro closure for an adjustable, secure fit
Both cuff designs help keep the gloves in place and improve comfort during long shifts.
