PIG Full Dexterity Tactical (FDT) Alpha Glove
If you’ve ever worn tactical gloves while shooting and wished for something better… your wish is now reality.
The PIG FDT Alpha Glove offers ground-breaking gun-handling dexterity and features that set them apart from the competition. And like ALL PIG Glove models, the PIG FDT Alphas feature Touch Screen conductive synthetic suede on the index finger and thumb for full compatibility with all your favorite devices.
FEATURES (* indicates industry firsts for a tactical glove):
- Conductive Thumb and Trigger Finger material - Maximum reliability for touch screen use without losing tactile dexterity.
- Single Layer Multi-Piece Palm - Designed specifically so that only one layer of material contacts your shooting grip.
- Sensitized and Isolated Trigger Finger - The thinnest available AX Suede material available, only on the trigger finger for ultimate sensitivity.
- Selective Fourschette Material - Inside fourschettes are ventilated for maximum wicking. Outer forschettes are AX Suede for durability.
- Low Profile Hook Closure - Reduces abrasion on clothing.
- Flex Joints - Enhanced flexibility and ventilation on each finger.
- Dual Flex Joint Trigger Finger - Providing maximum flexibility where you need it most.
- Bar-Tacked Para Cord Pull Loop... YES, NOW BAR-TACKED..
- Short Cuff - Lightweight comfort and convenience.
- Micro Suede Nose Wipe* - Fights against cold-weather drip. *Multicam/Multicam Black models do not have the Micro Suede Nose Wipe in deference to having more Multicam patterned material.
- Ventilation holes in Palms and Fingers - Increased wicking.
- Isolated Edge Padding - Protection without compromising the shooting grip.
- Wrap-Over Finger Tips - Provides additional comfort and protection for finger nails.
- Stretch Ballistic Nylon 1000D Padded Knuckles - Stretch ballistic nylon reduces pressure on the seams, thin padding takes the edge off of impacts.
At the end of the day, the PIG FDT-Alpha Glove is a consumable product that will provide the user with the best tactile dexterity available in a tactical glove, and should be worn to destruction, then discarded and replaced. The selection of super sensitive materials and extremely tight seams mean that these gloves will eventually wear out, and there are no warranties implied. Please try them on and inspect them thoroughly for fit and finish before removing from the hangtag, but be forewarned, you will not want to take them off.

Great Design! Will be my go to glove!
This is a very well designed glove for shooting. I like how they fit more like driving gloves around the wrists. There is no extra fabric to get hung up on anything (fits almost like spandex around your fingers). The two things that I do not like are these: 1. The webbing between my thumb and index finger doesn't seat all the way down into my hand... I wear the smalls, and the mediums fit between those two fingers (which means my hands are probably between sizes). However, I did an immersion weekend with these gloves, and it did not seem to affect my grip on the gun at all (just more of a small annoyance). 2. If the fabric catches on the velcro, it starts to bead up a little. Unfortunately, any pair of gloves like this will have this issue (unless it's leather or some material with a ridiculously tight weave). I would definitely recommend this glove, and I will be reordering whenever this pair bites the dust.

Haven't had a chance to test out yet. Feel very nice. Finger dexterity is fantastic. Should perform great.

Pig alpha touch gloves
Awesome gloves feels great feels awesome when holding the firearm. But they can do better on the stitching coz the velcro is a little loose.

Pig Gloves
Very good gloves the fit is perfect and the touch screen function works will. Only dig is the seams are a little rough nothing that wont break in soon.

So far so good
Snug fit, excellent dexterity for trigger manipulation. Time will tell if they have a long service life. Most shooting gloves that have good dexterity are usually pretty light duty and end up with holes and tears after just a few matches...I'm really hoping the PIG is the exception. If they last then the rating would move to excellent...

Alpha Touch
Thin, sized small but proportioned perfectly for my hands. I often find the thumb is to short in many gloves but these fit like a custom glove. Well made. Great dexterity.

Great gloves, tight fit
These gloves fit like a glove. So if you are on the border of s/m or m/l I would recommend going with the larger size. Aside from that, like I said early, super tight fit for maximum dexterity, easy to manipulate things. Haven't worn them for all that long, so we'll see if they stand up to stress from use and if they wear out like Mechanix. (if they don't, I'll come back and increase the star rating)

Nice Glove, As advertised
The best part about this glove is that all fingers work on my iPhone, not just the ones with the stitching. That said; they're snug but wear in well. I wouldn't work on your car with these, but the durability is reasonable for every day activity. I can see heavy use wearing down at least the touch screen threat, if not the rest. They're definitely mild weather gloves, don't expect to keep your hands warm with them. SKD shipped it quick, as promised. Some fun stickers with the product. Overall a great shopping experience for a nice solid product.

awesome dexterity
Gloves fit ,well, like a glove! Great dexterity,feels like a second skin. No excess material to get in the way. Time will tell on how long they hold up but I guess its a trade off between durability and dexterity. I have mixed feelings about the holes/vents in the gloves. They at times let material into the gloves ... but again its a trade off
