leather gauntlets? there are also thorn proof sleeves gardeners sometimes wear
but if you want proper thornproof Filson tin cloth is used by ranchers for going through brambles and also putting out barbed wire fencing

Cheers, Filson looks pretty out of budget (and overkill) but searching thorn proof sleeves I ended up here which looks like there should be something that does the job.

thorn proof sleeves
Wish I'd known this a few years ago when we bought our house. We a LOT of hedges and the previous owner had let them grow for 4-5 years. Took me about 5 working days to sort out and my arms looked like I had wrestled a rabid cat.

Any recommendations for a long sleeved top to stop my arms getting scratched? Preferably not too heavy and at the workwear end of the budget rather than the dandy end.
