Free crew sample kits · The Carolinas

Six gloves.
One week.
Your crew decides.

Two free kits for one crew: six different work gloves side by side, numbered G1–G6, plus the jobsite basics. Your guys use them for a week and tell us which one they'd keep. No order, no catch. We deliver it ourselves.

What's in the box

Two kits. Everything numbered.

The glove lineup is the test. The essentials kit is the thank-you. Every item is also a product we quote, so if the crew wants more of anything, it's one message away.

How it works

Zero extra work for your crew.

  1. 01

    We drop two kits at your yard

    Hand-delivered across the Carolinas where the route allows, shipped otherwise. We call first to confirm the address, the glove sizes and the day.

  2. 02

    Six guys, six gloves, one week

    Each glove is bagged and tagged G1–G6. Hand them to different crew members and let them work.

  3. 03

    Text us the number

    Which glove did they fight over? Which one didn't hold up? One text. That vote decides what MAYS stocks and what we quote you first.

Straight answers

What does it cost?
Nothing. Both kits are free, and there is no order to place. If a glove wins, we'll quote it next to what you pay now. If we can't beat that on price or on never running out, keep your supplier.
Who gets a kit?
One crew per company, for crews working in North or South Carolina: roofing, concrete and masonry, sitework and paving, framing, restoration, electrical and mechanical, and general contractors with field crews. Kits go out in small monthly batches starting December 2026, so requests are queued in the order they arrive.
Are the gloves rated?
Each tag shows the manufacturer's rating (for example ANSI/ISEA 105 cut level A4). Nothing goes on the MAYS shelf until a crew has field-tested it and the third-party test report is on file. OSHA does not approve or endorse products; your hazard assessment decides what your crew wears.
What happens after the vote?
We offer one case of the winner at an intro price, delivered. Say yes or no. Either way, your crew's vote goes into what we stock, and you get first call on the next field test.
Can we do this in Spanish?
Yes. The kit card is printed in English and Spanish, the WhatsApp line answers in both, and the person who delivers the kit speaks both.
