Which Size Should I Choose?
The Ejendals Tegera 517 are offered in seven different sizes, the dimensions of which can be found below. To measure your hand, measure the circumference of your hand around the knuckles (excluding the thumb) with your hand open and your fingers together.
| Size | Palm Circumference | Hand Length |
|---|---|---|
| Size 6 | 152mm | 160mm |
| Size 7 | 178mm | 171mm |
| Size 8 | 203mm | 182mm |
| Size 9 | 229mm | 192mm |
| Size 10 | 254mm | 204mm |
| Size 11 | 279mm | 215mm |
| Size 12 | Over 279mm | Over 215mm |
We would recommend selecting a size larger than your measurement, as the Tegera 517 Gloves can often be found to be quite tight fitting.
How Warm Are the EJendals Tegera 517 Waterproof Work Gloves?
The Ejendals Tegera Gloves are snug and warm. They can protect your hands when you're handling materials that are around -10°C, helping you to retain comfort without feeling the bite of the cold. They are particularly good at retaining warmth over long periods, which is why they are so popular among shift workers who work in cold store and outdoor environments.
How Waterproof Are the Ejendals 517 Waterproof Work Gloves?
They feature a synthetic leather polyester liner that will keep out the majority of water. They are however, designed more for entry level waterproof tasks, so if you want to use these gloves for constant wet conditions such as in window cleaning, we would recommend opting for some of our other waterproof gloves such as the Ejendals 295 Gloves.
How Dexterous Are the Ejendals Insulated Work Gloves?
These gloves are advertised as precision gloves because of their thin synthetic leather liner that helps you to retain most of the dexterity. In combining dexterity and sensitivity, these gloves are the perfect tactile handling gloves, ensuring that you can retain productivity even in cold and wet conditions. Users say that although the thickness comprises dexterity a tiny bit, the majority of their handling skills are retained.
Why Should I Trust the Ejendals Tegera 517 Insulated Waterproof Work Gloves?
You can trust these gloves because they are certified to a number of EN standards, which ensures that they say exactly what they say they do. They are tested to EN 388 (which measures their resistance to abrasion, cuts, tears and punctures) and EN 511, which measures their resistance to cold air, cold handling and water. They achieved the following results:
EN 388
- 1121X
| Hazard | Level of Resistance |
|---|---|
| Abrasion Resistance | Level 1 |
| Cut Resistance | Level 1 |
| Tear Resistance | Level 2 |
| Puncture Resistance | Level 1 |
| ISO Cut Resistance | N/A |
EN 511
- 111
| Hazard | Level of Resistance |
|---|---|
| Convective Cold Resistance | Level 1 |
| Contact Cold Resistance | Level 1 |
| Water Permeability | Level 1 |
What Does This Mean?
The two charts above allow us to understand how the gloves will react to different hazards. Firstly, the gloves all achieve an okay score against mechanical hazards. This means that while the gloves won't protect you against a high level of risk, they will perform extremely well in lower risk tasks such as handling materials, gripping machinery and using tools.
Secondly, the gloves achieved good scores in relation to their resistance to cold. The level 1 in convective cold and contact cold resistance hazards means that they should protect you in conditions as low as -10°C. For more information on EN 388 and EN 511, you can see the tabs at the top of the page.

Why Are the Ejendals Tegera 517 Gloves So Comfortable?
The first thing you notice when you wear the gloves is the comfort. The inner fleece liner feels quite thick (although it isn't), meaning that you retain an incredibly level of warmth. Along with the incredible comfort, the gloves are designed to be quite snug and flexible, which helps to reduce any discomfort after a long day of wearing the gloves.
How Grippy Are the Ejendals Tegera 517 Waterproof Gloves?
The Ejendals Gloves feature a palm that will increase in grip when the gloves are wet. Perfect for outdoor work, freezer work and cycling, these gloves ensure superior grip even in difficult conditions.
How Easy Are the Ejendals Tegera 517 Insulated Precision Work Gloves to Wear?
The gloves are quite snug, but not overly tight. As they are so warm and comfortable, it means that you aren't too concerned about how snug that they are. They are easy to take off and put on too, which is perfect for working long hours when you might have to don and doff your gloves repeatedly.
How Do the Ejendals Tegera 517 Gloves Behave When Wet?
If you're wearing the gloves during winter weather, then you can expect that they might start to get a little wet. There's no need to worry in this case, the fingers will get quite wet and a little thicker, but it shouldn't compromise any dexterity, protection and most importantly, your warmth!
How Long Is the Wrist on the Ejendals 517 Gloves?
The knitwrist is quite short, covering most of the wrist but none of the arm. The wrist is tight meaning that water can't get up and make your hand wet. However, if you do require something with a little longer wrist, then we would recommend that you take a look at the Ejendals Tegera 296 Insulated Waterproof Work Gloves.
How Durable Are the Ejendals Tegera 517 Insulated Gloves in Winter?
The Ejendals 517 Gloves are designed for lighter tasks and wearers have reported that for heavy duty tasks that the fingers can start to fray a little. If you'd like gloves that will last for heavier duty work, then we'd recommend the Ejendals 295 Waterproof Thermal Work Gloves.

If you're handling materials or operating machinery, then the last thing you need is a thick pair of work gloves. These gloves are really quite thin, with a high level of sensitivity that means you can feel the items that you are holding. The fleece liner inside feels a little thicker, but that doesn't mean that it compromises your dexterity.

You might have noticed that this product adheres to EN standard EN 388. EN standards ensure that the product you are buying meets the safety standards of the European Committee for Standardization (CEN), the highest standards organisation recognised by and working on behalf of the European Union. To pass any EN standard, a PPE product must undergo some of the most rigorous safety tests around.
There are many EN standards that our gloves adhere to. However, the EN standard that we’re concerned about here is EN 388. EN 388 stands for Mechanical Resistance, and informs you of your gloves' resistance to abrasion, cuts, tears and punctures.
How Do I Read the EN 388 Score?
Simply speaking, the higher the score that this product achieves, the better the product will be at resisting that hazard. Products will score between Level 0 and Level 4 for abrasion, tears and punctures, and if they weren’t tested for that hazard you will see N/A written instead of a number.
Cuts are a little different and, with the EN 388 standard rewritten in 2016, it means that gloves will either be tested to cut resistance or ISO cut resistance (sometimes called TDM cut resistance). Gloves tested to cut resistance will score between Level 0 and Level 5, and gloves tested to ISO cut resistance will achieve a score between Level A and Level F with the higher letter offering better cut protection.

You might have noticed that this product adheres to EN standard EN 511.

To pass any EN standard, a PPE product must undergo some of the most rigorous safety tests around.
There are many EN standards that our gloves adhere to. However, the EN standard that we’re concerned about here is EN 511. EN 511 stands for all things cold, and means that your gloves have been tested for their convective cold resistance, contact cold resistance and water permeability properties.
How Do I Read the EN 511 Score?
Simply speaking, the higher the score achieved the better the product will be at resisting the hazard tested. For the first two tests (convective cold resistance and contact cold resistance), the product will achieve between a Level 0 and a Level 4. The higher the score the better the resistance, with a Level 0 score meaning that it failed and an N/A score meaning that the product wasn’t tested for this hazard.
For water permeability the product will achieve either a Level 0 or a Level 1. Level 1 means that the product is waterproof, and Level 0 means that it isn't.
