I have had mine for a few years and they're holding up great. They are especially handy for those of us that are flat rate techs that can't always keep a customer waiting while their car cools off. This model does a excellent job of protecting your arms from hot exhaust manifolds. However, your fingers still get to touch hot stuff. I'm told that lisle has a version with a built in glove. I haven't seen those but, I would be concerned about losing dexterity. The Mechanix heat sleeves are definitely worth the money compared to the price of skin. Although it is true that chicks did scars, burn scars aren't real popular. These are alsmost as good as sliced bread. I have had mine for a few years and they’re holding up great.
