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.

Quality Product
I have used them for several days of practice and training. They are nice and tight with good feel and dexterity offering a very tactile touch and range of motion. You can feel the trigger and also identify objects in your pocket better than other gloves. They provide good protection that helps with confidence and comfort during drills and does not impede or complicate same drills. They are almost like wearing nothing, like a second skin that protects your hand. I haven’t had time to fully test them, don’t know how they will do in the cold, but for shooting and range days they are perfect. Touch Screen use is great they actually place the threads where you need them so use feels natural. They are not waterproof; they have breath holes in the palm and fingers to reduce sweat. Also does not say how they fair for flame and blast resistance. All together great buy for the price, they are made well and I plan on putting them through their paces.

Best Gloves ever!
After having these gloves for only a short time I can say they are the best I have ever tried. As a retired soldier and have spent many hours with weapons in hands and using what the military issued or allowed us to use nothing comes close to these. Granted they are not for extreme conditions but for every days use on the range these glove are the answer.

PIG FDT - Hell of a pair of gloves!!
I have small hands. The PIG small sizes fit best out of most I have tried. Hell of a pair of gloves, very well made. Puts my old pair of UA's to shame. Nice thing about small hands is they make my "weapon" look huge.

Hot rifle!!
Competed in the Arkansas National Guard TAG Matches this weekend and most of my important gear came from SKD. These guys definitely have a legit no shit universal chest rig, water pouch and the gloves came in handy. When throwing hundreds of rounds down range in a matter of minutes with the M16 and various other rifles, machine guns the gloves cam in handy to keep the heat away. The chest rig is high speed, lightweight and durable. Part of the tag match was a bianchi 3 gun and the vest triumphed over standard army issue gear and at the speed at which you can grab on the run can possibly save your life. No fumbled mags here or fighting with bungee cords. SKD hasn't let me down one these past three days helping secure a 3rd place in overall Tag match of 30 teams, 1st place bianchi match and 3rd place M240L.

FULL Dexterity is right!
I own some heavier 5.11 gloves that make it difficult to maneuver your trigger finger, but these were just what I was looking for - they fit like a second skin and are barely noticeable while still offering a solid amount of grip and protection. They're light, breathable, and you can actually feel what you're doing (like pulling a trigger). There's no loose, bulky extra material at the end of the fingers and the touch feature works well. You definitely get the impression that the gloves are made to use and replace - not because the material feels cheap (it feels very high quality), but because it feels so thin and tight that I would compare it to wearing a latex glove. I'd have no problem buying another pair of these gloves and planning on doing so long before my current ones actually wear out.

great gloves
Awesome, awesome gloves! I wear extra large gloves, and this is one of very few that actually fit my long fingers. Very good dexterity, sensitivity, and comfort. I haven't really put them through their paces durability wise, but I'm not expecting them to be bullet proof. Great Job guys!

Great Gloves
Worn many different gloves at work as a LEO, these are the best. Being able to use my phone w/ them on is a huge deal, but the construction is also top notch too.
