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.

    Decent Gloves, Touch a Little... touchy

    Posted by JHP on 8th Dec 2013

    The gloves themselves are great. They are comfortable, very dexterous. Easy to manipulate the knob of either a 148 or 152. The touch portion of the gloves though leave a little to be desired. First, the location is on the pad of your fingertips, so it's hard to make precise adjustments. To turn on a phone or answer a call it would be fine, but to enter a password or a grid or to hit an icon on a map (like an EUD for a 154), it's difficult at best. Second is durability. I've worn them on 4 patrols and so far, the thread is already fraying. Not sure how well they will hold up, but I'll re-review if possible for continued durability.

    Cheap Stitching

    Posted by Unknown on 8th Dec 2013

    Silver stitching on index finger came out almost immediately. Other than that they work great.

    Alpha Touch-Pretty good but...

    Posted by JTAC1789 on 8th Dec 2013

    Run a little small compared to regular FDT Alpha. I have several pair of the standard FDT Alpha's in XL and by far are the best shooting gloves i have used (i got issued some Hatch goatskin gloves in the military that come close). However, i need to order the XXL Touches, they are a little smaller for some reason. Other than that they are the same as the Alphas and the touch screen feature works great

    Touch disappoints

    Posted by Chuck on 8th Dec 2013

    Love the PIG gloves, these are my second pair. The touch feature is rather disappointing. Three little stitches on two fingers is not enough. You finger has to be pushed hard against the screen and at awkward angles to work. Extra cost is not justified.

    USPS Shipping Not Great

    Posted by Unknown on 5th Dec 2013

    I haven't had a chance to try out my PIG FDTs yet because SKD shipped using USPS with Signature Confirmation, and since I wasn't home, the post office didn't deliver the gloves and still haven't redelivered despite making me jump through the hoops and forms to get it redelivered.
