My hands aren’t the size of snow shovels and I’m no Sasquatch, but I am a man of decent standing at 6 feet tall, and I have man-sized hands.

And you know what they say about men with big hands…. They need big gloves.
So why oh why can’t I buy a pair of extra large Marigolds?
I’m serious, I’ve been to all the major supermarkets and I can’t find a pair bigger than a ‘large’. There are no XL gloves anywhere. Tell a lie, Marks & Spencer sell XL gloves but they’re just large gloves branded as XLs.
Come on! My hands are shot to shit from the constant contact with fluids of all kinds but especially grotty dish water. I need XL gloves STAT!
It was never important to me before, but then the skin on my hands never looked like someone had taken a bastard file to it.
If the world wants men to do the washing up, we need man-sized gloves!
Preferably in a macho camouflage pattern. Hell yeah!
