[FEATURED PRODUCT] Dirty Rigger’s Venta-Cool™ Summer Rigger Gloves

Before the summer heat kicks in full force, be prepared onsite with a pair of breathable rigging gloves. Our featured product is Dirty Rigger’s Venta-Cool™ Summer Rigger Glove. Production calls require long hours and a lot of hands on labor, which can take its toll throughout the day. Dirty Rigger’s Venta-Cool Summer Rigger Gloves allow for hand cooling airflow via high ventilation materials on the backside of the glove. This results in heat being pulled away from the core, keeping your hands cool and ready to work. The Venta-Cool Summer Rigger Gloves provide roughly 80% more airflow than the other gloves in Dirty Rigger’s inventory.
