Fifth Pulse Disposable Nitrile Gloves M [100] Latex & Powder Free Gloves - Blue

I swap gloves frequently with sweaty hands. rarely do I need to add powder. Durable. I can use my phone while wearing them, including unlocking with biometrics.

I initially purchased these gloves (size XS) and was extremely satisfied. The first four to five boxes I bought were excellent—durable, reliable, and perfectly suited for my needs. Context and Sizing Note: These gloves are a necessary product for me, as I have OCD and my doctor specifically advised me to wear disposable gloves for cleaning tasks. I must use size XS because kids' gloves are too small for me, and size S is too large. Even the XS size is still slightly too long in the finger length. Given this is my only viable and medically necessary option, the recent, dramatic decline in quality is extremely frustrating and unacceptable. Unfortunately, the quality has deteriorated significantly in subsequent purchases. I have encountered two major issues that make these gloves unusable and represent a serious drop in manufacturing standards: Splitting and Tearing: I have had multiple gloves split open right at the fingertip during standard use, and sometimes, even just while putting them on. This never happened with the earlier batches and completely compromises the glove's barrier integrity. Missing Cuff Elastic: I have pulled several gloves directly from the box where the elasticated rubber band at the cuff/opening was completely missing or broken. Without this intact band, the glove tears immediately when attempting to pull it onto the hand, rendering it useless. It is frustrating to see a once-great product decline so rapidly in quality. I sincerely hope the manufacturer addresses these quality control issues immediately, as reliable small sizing is crucial for users like myself.
