Disposable nitrile gloves are much tougher and more puncture resistant than latex, and have good tactile feedback. They are becoming widely used in auto and heavy equipment repair, health care and a whole bunch of places.
Really great for avoiding stained hands or any dirty job, real dirt or grime, that is. Some chemicals will eat them up, paint stripper for example. Fewer people are allergic to nitrile rubber than to latex, a bonus.
