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 Clarino™ material available, only on the trigger finger for ultimate sensitivity.
- Selective Forschette Material - Inside forschettes are ventilated for maximum wicking. Outer forschettes are Clarino™ 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.

PIG Alpha glove
The glove is more comfortable than my Mechanix wear gloves, especially in the fingers as the seams on the Alpha gloves are not at the tip. They fit very snug but are not too tight. Very comfortable. I have not tested their breathability in hot, humid Midwest summer yet. Highly recommended!

Great Gloves
These gloves are just what the doctor ordered for fare weather shooting. Not good for the cold. They are a ittle pricey, but I hope they are worth it.

Purchased these a birthday gift for my son.
I purchased these gloves for my son for his birthday. I can't really comment on the gloves but the shipping time was excellent. I woukd definitely order from SKD again. And he is extremely happy with his new tactical gloves.

Excellent gloves
When it comes to shotting gloves, It's important to find the right size for you, mine is always large, I decided to try the medium and it fitted me properly.

Great fit, perfect feel/dexterity
I go through several pairs of gloves a year since I work on a motorcycle. Typically I use leather 'roper' style gloves, but after seeing a bunch of good reviews on the PIG glove, I had to give them a try. The fit is perfect. No space at the ends of the fingers or too much material on the back of the glove. These gloves have enough dexterity to allow me to easily manipulate the motorcycle controls, and also maintain enough 'feel' to let me write and use my smartphone without any hassle. The leather is fairly thin, so I expect I will have to replace them in several months. That being said I understood when I purchased them that they were not built to last forever, they were built to maintain the qualities I have outlined above. SKD has his another home run with these gloves as far as I am concerned. (Even though I didn't get an SKD sticker in my package! LoL)

Solid shooting glove
The gloves provide a great feel for positive control. My only complaint is that the touch screen thread frays out of the fingers almost immediately under firing conditions.

Nice but runs kinda small.
The gloves really do allow a full range of motion, however... I feel they run a bit small and are a little thin. I ordered an XL and even though they fit reasonably well I will probably return for a refund to go with what I know or exchange and give them another chance. Also, the Alpha touch tip version kinda needs to be angled a specific way for my iPhone. I havent attempted to try it without my lifeproof case on it so that might be part of the problem.

pig gloves
great lightweight gloves look and feel awesome. the only thing is my left hand glove is a bit over sized on the pointer finger enough that you can notice, but the right hand glove fits perfect, well its either made in the USA or its not lol. still can not wait to see what comes next SKD.

Great shooting gloves
I don't like wearing gloves while shooting, but it is just too damned cold, so i bought 2 pairs of these. one regular and one touch. thought the touch would be more sensitive, but when I got them, the touch was just so you could use your cell phone. I dont even have my cell phone when shooting, so I would not pay the extra for that option. otherwise, these gloves are great. use the fit chart as you want them to be snug. they feel great and i still have a lot of feeling in my hands of the weapon. surprisingly, they actually give me a better grip. so i would recommend.
