Moose, our German shepherd, sheds all year and then blows his coat on top of that, so there’s fur on the sofa, the rugs, my black work pants and the back of the Subaru pretty much all the time. The PurePath Glove is an electrostatic mitt you rub over fabric to pull that hair out, and it’s $24.99 on the US site. I bought one to see whether it could keep up with the whole house. A month in, it’s handling a lot more of it than I expected.
At a glance
What it is
A reusable glove with an electrostatic mesh palm (the site lists the mesh as 5 mm) that lifts pet hair off upholstery, clothes and car interiors.
Who it’s for
Anyone with a heavy shedder and fabric furniture who’s tired of buying lint roller refills.
Verdict
It pulls embedded hair out of fabric better than anything else I had in the house, with more elbow grease than the ads let on.
Price
$24.99 for one glove on the US site when I checked.
The catch
Delivery took longer than I wanted, and the tracking didn’t say much for a while.
First impressions
I found it the way most people seem to, through a video ad of a mitt rolling up what looked like a whole rug’s worth of fur off a couch. I’ll be honest, I rolled my eyes. I’d already wasted money on a gas station rubber brush that did nothing.
Before paying I googled the name with “scam” after it, which I do with anything I see online, and got a real mix. Some people loved the thing. Others were furious about shipping and refunds. I almost never read refund pages, but I read that one before checking out. Checkout itself was normal and the confirmation email came right away.
How it works
You put it on like an oven mitt and rub. The palm is covered in a fine mesh, and PurePath says the friction builds a static charge that grabs hair and pulls it out of the weave. It doesn’t take refills or sticky sheets. When the palm’s full you pinch the clump off and toss it.
Waiting for it to arrive
This is the part people are angry about, and after my own wait I get it. The glove took a good while longer to show up than I’d assumed it would. A tracking number landed in my inbox and then sat there for days telling me nothing useful, and I checked it more often than I’d like to admit. Dale, my husband, started asking about “the magic glove” in a tone I didn’t love, and by the second week I was honestly annoyed.
It did turn up, on a Thursday when I was over at my sister’s in Dayton, and it was in one piece. But if I’d needed it by a certain date, say before a move-out inspection, I’d have been sweating it, because the tracking just wasn’t telling me anything.
The first go on the sofa
Our sofa is a dark gray woven fabric, and Moose’s undercoat works its way down into it so the vacuum just skates over the top. I did one cushion as a test. Within a few passes a gray-brown clump was building on the palm. Disgusting, and also kind of great. The hair came up out of the weave, and the cushion ended up a shade darker, meaning it finally looked like the color we paid for.
It isn’t the ad, though. The video makes it look like one lazy swipe. I had to press. It also grabbed much better pulling toward me than pushing away. After a minute of scrubbing back and forth I switched to short pull strokes. Once I did that, a cushion took a few minutes. The whole sofa took about as long as one episode of the fishing show Dale had on.
Clothes and the car
Black work pants were where I figured it would struggle. It didn’t. A few quick passes down each leg before I left in the morning, and I wasn’t picking sticky paper off my coffee cup all day.
The car was harder. Moose rides in the back of our Subaru, and the cargo carpet is that tight, scratchy kind. The glove pulled hair out of it, but only with real pressure and a lot of short strokes, and my wrist felt it that evening. The cloth back seats went much easier. I’d put the car at “it works, but it’s a workout.”
How it’s holding up a few weeks in
I use it most evenings, usually on the sofa and Moose’s blanket. The mesh grabs the same as it did the first day, as far as I can tell. It lives in the drawer by the back door with the leashes and a roll of poop bags, and it’s what I reach for now instead of the roller.
Price and value
At $24.99 it costs more than a lint roller. The refills were always my real expense, though, and with a shepherd in the house I stopped wanting to add them up. The glove doesn’t need any. What you’re paying for is hair actually coming up out of the fabric.
Pros and cons
Pros
Pulls embedded undercoat out of woven upholstery where my vacuum couldn’t
No refills or sticky sheets to keep buying
Quick on clothes on the way out the door
Cons
Needs more pressure than the ads suggest, especially on car carpet
Delivery was slow, and tracking was vague for a stretch
FAQ
Is PurePath legit?
Yes. My glove showed up and does what it says on fabric. The slow shipping and the refund arguments online are real too, so I’d only order it when you’re not in a hurry.
What does the money-back guarantee actually say?
PurePath’s refund policy, last updated September 12, 2026, gives you 60 days from when you receive your order to ask for a refund. You email support@purepathshop.ca with your order number. The policy says you don’t need a detailed reason if you’re simply unhappy with it, though they may ask for photos or video if an order arrived damaged or wrong, or never turned up. They can offer a replacement instead, but the policy also says you don’t have to accept one if you qualify for a refund. If the return isn’t about a damaged or wrong item, return shipping may be on you, and they say they’ll confirm that before you send anything back. Approved refunds are typically processed within 10 business days, and sale items are still covered. I never needed any of it.
How long does shipping take?
Longer than I expected. Don’t order it the week before you need it.
Does it work on car seats?
On cloth seats, easily. On tight car carpet it works too, but you’ll be pressing hard.
Is PurePath the same company as Pure Path Products?
No, they’re unrelated businesses with similar names.
Would I use it again?
Yes. I already do, most nights, and I haven’t bought a roller refill since it showed up. If this one wore out I’d order another, just earlier than I think I’d need it.
Bottom line
If you’ve got a heavy shedder and fabric furniture, and a slow delivery won’t wreck your plans, the glove is worth the money. Nothing else in our house got the undercoat out of the couch. You can find PurePath’s pet hair glove on their site.
