How do these "Mechanix" gloves stand up to getting oily/greasy? Is the material OK with this?

i wore a pair once while installing a transmission into a vehicle and even while getting completely soaked in burned tranny fluid they still held up and the oil helped loosen them up alot since they were new gloves when i tried them and kinda stiff.i think my dad still has them i borrowed them from him and also they can be a pain when it comes to things like loosening bolts by hand.
