Mechanix Wear Original MultiCam Tactical Gloves, Medium | Secure Fit & Flexible Grip for Multi-Purpose Use, Durable Touchscreen Safety Gloves Designed for Men

These gloves fit great and provide excellent grip, protection, and dexterity. They're comfortable enough for extended wear while still being tough enough for work, outdoor activities, range use, and general tasks. The materials feel durable, the stitching is solid, and they allow for precise hand movements without feeling bulky. Excellent quality and performance at a great price.

There is a strong debate in my field around whether these are superior to the Oakley gloves. I'm an SF (Army, not Air Force) operator, and you can find my comparison between these and the Oakley gloves (bought from the SI website at www.standardissue.com) below. In the end, it all comes down to shooter's preference. My preferences and my I prefer them are found below. A little about me: I'm an SF (Army, not Air Force) medic with eight years' team time and almost four years of deployed time, 31 months of which have been in Afghanistan, the rest of which have been in South America. Tactile Feedback: This is a huge consideration for me. I like being able to feel, as accurately as possible, what is going on under my gloves (think handling an M-9 with gloves vs bare hands). This is a draw. The Mechanix gloves have a similar but less pronounced palm feel and response to the Oakleys. You can just feel minor details better with the Oakleys. You can wrap a piece of coarse (100-200 grit) sandpaper around a cylindrical object and rub the gloves against it to increase the tactile feedback to improve the tactile feedback of the Mechanix gloves (recommended) to that of the Oakleys. This will significantly reduce the life of both sets of gloves, however if you do it to the Mechanix gloves to the point that there is a similar feel between these and (new) Oakleys you will only reduce these to the effective lifetime of a fresh pair of Oakleys. The Oakleys come with additional padding under the fingertips on the index and middle finger along with some (I think) useless dots that are meant to increase grip. I find this Oakley feature to be superfluous and I cut this part of the glove off. *Caveat - I DO take my gloves off any time I perform medic duties. Neither glove, sanded down or not, allows me to accurately assess a casualty as well as I can with bare hands or with latex gloves. Protection: The Oakleys win here. The Oakleys have knuckle protection; these do not. There exists a version of Mechanix gloves with knuckle protection, however, those come with a double layer on the palm that reduces tactile feedback. As far as protection goes, the Mechanix with the additional padding on the knuckles have more protection, but you sacrifice tactile feedback to get the protection. The beefed up Mechanix gloves have extra layers in the palmar area which significantly reduces tactile feedback. The problem is that the knuckle protection on the beefed-up Mechanix is soft whereas the knuckle protection on the Oakleys is hard, and when I say hard it's like brass knuckle hard. I have literally had to punch people in the face to protect myself and my teammates; the Oakleys with their "brass knuckle" effect easily win the battle against the Mechanix's knuckle protection. This brass knuckle feature isn't strictly necessary (in my experience) as I could have simply punched them in the face again, and again, if necessary. Durability: Mechanix win. These Mechanix gloves have a slightly thicker palm and underside of the finger area. The Oakleys have a better "out of the box feel", but only by a slight bit; the Mechanix gloves break in quickly to the same feel as the Oakley gloves (especially if you use a pipe lined with sandpaper) and they have almost twice the life (in my experience) as the Oakley gloves. Other Factors: This is where Mechanix win by a long shot. The Oakley gloves have a tendency to, when subjected to repeated wear in hot environments where your hands sweat profusely, stiffen up after wear which reduces the tactile feedback received through the glove. This stiffening isn't relieved the next time you wear them until several hours have gone by and gets worse the more sweat you pour into them. The Mechanix gloves do not suffer this malady, and they somehow retain their feel despite months of hard use. The Mechanix gloves also (to me) fit better and more consistently; the Mechanix gloves seem to have a more elastic back of the hand area and a palmar area that doesn't constrict after it has been sweated into which hugely improves the overall comfort and usefulness of the glove over time. It also seems like the quality of construction is better as I have had multiple pairs of Oakley gloves that had stitching that was off (especially in the thumb and the inside of the index finger) which caused me to render those gloves unserviceable. This inconsistency alone is enough for me to choose the Mechanix gloves without going into the price difference which is significant. TL;DR: I prefer the Mechanix gloves because they are cheaper, better made, more durable, comparable in regards to tactile feedback, and, unless I'm punching through brick walls, don't offer a whole lot of improved protection; that being said, I would strongly prefer a version with hard knuckle protection.

I love these gloves I bought them many times over Very durable mechanics make Very good gloves these are good for multipurpose whether you're a mechanic a contractor or an operator or you just need some gloves for around the house I highly recommend these We'd definitely buy these again

Bought these for shooting. Feels really good when gripping the gun. Secure. Heat resistance is ok, I wouldn't recommend grabbing your suppressor though. Fit is decent. I bought a large and the fingers were tight all the way to the ends, but the thumb had just a slight bit of extra looseness right on the tip. Really bugged me so I went with a medium pair (returning them was no problem). That fixed the thumb issue but now they are overall a bit tight. My hand is 7 3/4" from tip of middle finger to that crease in your wrist. Hoping they will stretch out some. Still love them. Not too short on the wrist either, which I was worried about. They seem very durable, but more time and use will tell.

Use these for work and after breaking them in, there is no glove more comfortable. They usually last 4-6 months for me before they tear on a finger seam and need replaced, making them a much better value than single use gloves. Velcro strap holds well around the wrist and allows for easy adjustment. I would highly recommend giving these a try.

Great gloves, really love them! Mechanix are a popular glove in the tactical and shooting communities. I have heard people talk crap about them sometimes but those people are probably gear elitists who think if it's not uber expensive then it must suck. These gloves are affordable, relatively tough and are pretty comfortable. I use the medium sized gloves since I'm a smaller dude (150 pounds; 5'10") and they fit great. There is some play in the finger tips but very little. You'll never find gloves that fit perfectly though, just like you will never find boots that fit perfectly. We all have unique dimensions so just get the glove that fits you the closest. In terms of quality, they do have great features and materials. The are somewhat synthetic so that's great for when they get wet and need to dry out by the fire. They seem tough too but like all other apparel that gets used heavily, they will wear out. That's just the nature of using something though. Eventually it will wear out. If you get 6 months of REALLY hard use out of them, that would be a great value. If you use them for a couple years with just moderate strain on them, that again would be a great value since the black gloves are only 18 USD. Be warned though, these are NOT winter gloves and your hands will get cold in the winter time. I recommend these gloves covered in a very thin fleece winter glove to protect you from the cold. Or you can just get a quality pair of winter gloves then just use these for indoor tasks or during warmer seasons. I usually shoot with these gloves so they are great for that. Protecting your hands is crucial and folks often underestimate how important their hands are until they loose a finger or slice their finger to the bone. These gloves will protect you as well. If you get the M-Pact version they protect even better. I love the style of these gloves as well. They come in camo, black, red, blue, yellow, coyote tan, you name it. A very quality product and highly recommended to anyone who needs to protect their hands but doesn't want to spend a fortune.

I was so happy to find these again. They make excellent GARDENING Gloves; give protection from small briars,etc but you don’t loose dexterity for finer work. You may need a heavier pair for large thorns. My last pair lasted me 2 yrs and I laundered them pretty often. Fit is ideal.

Soy un admirador de esta marca y en concreto de este modelo pero estos en concreto salieron malos en una semana las costuras de los dedos se abrieron y los dedos quedado al descubierto haciéndome daño.

Wanneer je Europese maat 9 hebt, neem je best medium. Deze kan in het begin wat nauw zitten maar rekt nog een beetje. Goede kwaliteit en afwerking.

Ich nutze die Handschuhe seit fast 4 Jahren im Outdoorbereich, um meine Bürohände vor Schäden zu bewahren, da verletzte Hände bei mehrtägigen Kanutouren zum großen Problem werden können. Sie helfen mir vor allem beim Tragen von Holz und Steinen. Da bieten sie ein gutes Tragegefühl und auch feinere Arbeiten sind möglich. Ich schreibe die Rezension grad mit den Handschuhen an. :D Es ist nicht perfekt, aber es geht. Schnitt- und stichfest sind die Handschuhe leider nicht, aber dafür werden sie ja auch nicht beworben. Dafür bieten sie etwas Schutz vor Hitze, falls man mal am Feuer hantiert oder etwas Heißes anfassen will. Und auch wenn das nicht Bestandteil meiner Kaufentscheidung war, bekomme ich regelmäßig Komplimente dafür, wie professionell die Handschuhe aussehen. :D Bisher habe ich sie ein paar mal in der Waschmaschine bei 30° C gewaschen und die Handschuhe sind immer noch tadellos.

Gute Handschuhe,die zum Waffenhandling ein gutes Gefühl bieten und dennoch eine gewisse Dicke/Polsterung haben.Man hat das nötige Feingefühl um auch dümmliches Arbeiten, wie z.B. das Befüllen des Magazins, durchzuführen. Und noch dazu kommt der bei vielen wichtige Faktor „tacticool“ durch die graue Farbe. Die Nähte sind bei meinen Modellen gut verarbeitet,so dass sie nicht stören und ich auch nicht die Befürchtung habe,dass sie sich schnell auflösen. Touchdisplays lassen sich leider nicht damit bedienen,aber auch bei schwitzigen Händen geht das An-und Ausziehen gut und die Schlaufe am Handgelenk eignet sich als Anzieh-Hilfe und zimmer aufhängen an einen Karabiner o.Ä. zur Aufbewahrung. Zur Reinigung kann ich noch nichts sagen,da bei diesen noch nicht die Notwendigkeit bestanden hat,aber von anderen Modellen des Heratellers kann ich auch da positiv berichten.Sie lassen sich in der Waschmaschine waschen und zerfallen dabei nicht.Trocknen tun sie sehr schnell. Ich würde sie mir wieder kaufen.

Da ich als Pferdewirt arbeite, habe ich mir diese Handschuhe besorgt. Vorher hatte ich bereits ähnliche von Mechanix und war damit auch super zufrieden. Der Stoff ist nicht zu dick, schützt aber und hält lange Zeit. Ich habe mir diese Handschuhe ausgesucht, da sie nicht über das Handgelenk hinausgehen und somit wie eine zweite Haut sitzen und nicht stören.
