I used the Bold gloves for a while and they were just okay. This time I ordered the Bold Max and Ignite gloves. I used the Bold Max for heavy construction work, drilling with a hammer drill in cement and stone, and digging and carrying soil and debris with my hands, for hours. I only used one pair of gloves and not only did they not tear at all, but I took them off and put them back on twice, and when I finished, I thought about not throwing them away so I could use them again another time!! If I think that the Bold Max gloves are 6 mil and the Ignite gloves are 7 mil, I can imagine how good those will be. A purchase with closed eyes.
