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.

Tactically Sound
"Full Dexterity" is definitely an accurate description. The gloves are extremely snug, similar to the feel of a new Under Armour compression shirt, but still offers full mobility with your hand/fingers. Whether it's firing, loading, or assembling/disassembling your weapon, these gloves will deliver performance! Although these gloves provide tactical functionality, they did not offer any real protection in cold temperatures.

Good Kit
Picked up a pair of PIG FDT Alpha Touch gloves to replace the worn out Mechanix pair in my range bag. I usually go through a pair every 18 months or so as they get ragged. So far, I'm pretty impressed with the FDT gloves. Great dexterity and plenty warm enough for the weather around here. The touch system works fine with my iPhone. Any glove is going to be something of a compromise between longevity and dexterity. We'll see how these wear over the long haul. On sizing: My hand measurements came out on the cusp between XL and XXL. I decided to go with the XL. They were a little tight at first, but broke in very quickly. I'm happy with my choice of size and with these gloves overall. This was my first order with SKD and it was a no drama experience. Buy with confidence.

SKD Products
Once again, SKD has delievered my products on time and as promised. I cannot stress how well SKD has provided me with what I need, when I need it. Also, anytime I've sent them an e-mail asking questions about a product or an order, they have responded ASAP. These folks are "squared away" and know their stuff.

Exactly what I was lookin for
Police. I've been using mechanix for years while shooting and have been looking for something better... I just found it. Gloves hug the hand and greatly improves feel and dexterity while operating the rifle and transitioning to pistol. Fingertips are a little thin to protect from needles in pockets on searches, but an EXCELLENT shooting glove.

PIG FDT Alpha Touch (Black)
Gloves fit perfectly. Make sure you use the sizing chart. Used them this weekend and they were great. No problems operating my Glock 22 Gen 4. I was even able to load my magazines while wearing them! Hands remained warm enough to shoot comfortably in 24 degree weather.

Great gloves- no extra bulk
Sizes run a little small (short) for those with long fingers. Touch feature works, have to get used to touching screens a little harder to make the capacitance register, but no big deal.

Excellent Product!!
I bought these for my husband and he absolutely LOVES them!! They feel like a second skin not like regular gloves, keeps your hands warm and you can use your iphone perfectly while wearing these gloves. Also really enjoyed the stickers that SKD sent with my shipment ;)
