PIG (FDT) Alpha Glove

I have about 7 other gloveS that I have purchased trying to find just the right ones for tactical shooting events. My search is over...best fit and feel. Just have to use them more to see how long they will hold up to my abuse. My biggist complaint for gloves has been the stitching. Most are thick and uncomfortable and then they come undone. Hope these hold up.

I initially purchased a set of PIG gloves in 2012 and had some bad luck with them during a VTAC class I attended. I returned them and obtained a second pair with some revisions. I ran my new pair HARD at two Costa Ludus classes. (HE01 and CE01) Where the stitching came apart in the fingers in my first pair and they began to fall apart, the improved version had none of these issues. I abused the gloves and ran them hard for 6 days and the gloves held up. I've been in search of a high quality glove that didn't take too much away from the 'feel' of shooting. (Manipulating buttons, levers, safeties etc..) The PIG glove is the perfect glove to shield your hands from cuts, scrapes and abrasions while offering protection from high heat buildup from shooting carbines. (AK and AR) The fingertips offer enough protection yet still maintain their You don't have to suffer with thick Mech gloves any longer. Score yourself some PIG's today; they are worth every penny.

These goves were worth the wait, received them in the mail today (which was a quick turnaround from purchase). I put them on out of the package, immediately picked up my smallest carry firearm and the feel was incredible (like a second skin). Looking forward to first workout on range and they are in the bag as part of my duty equipment in armed security. Oh yeah, placed another order within hours, literally. Well, since, I have some space left... SKD's customer service is outstanding, thanks.

First I'd like to say that I love these gloves and don't plan to buy anything but these. They feel amazing and are hands down the best gloves I've owned. That being said I wouldn't buy these gloves for a deployment or for harsh situations, unless you plan on buying more than one pair. I've gone through 2 pair in 2 months. I probably would have gone through more if they weren't sold out. If you plan on using them in harsh conditions, I would suggest you buy 1 pair per month or bring a sewing kit with you. These gloves are worth buying though.

Compared to issue nomex flight gloves or Mechanix, these are amazing, almost like you don't have on gloves at all. Definite must buy.

The gloves are outstanding and fit perfectly thanks to the online sizing chart. Super fast shipping too, as they were in my hands (no pun intended) in just a few days.

I bought these for work gloves, but I liked them so much I only use them for range gloves. I will buy them again, but I would like the palm to be a little thicker.

Nice features for pulling on and off. Articulated joints keep them comfortable for long-term wear. I haven't used them while shooting yet, but the trigger fingers seem to offer plenty of sensitivity.

So, I initially bought a pair to replace the Hatch gloves I've been using for years to train and work with. These gloves have been great. I've put them through quite a beating, and they're still holding up great. They've held up so well I decided to buy a pair to wear while I work with my Search and rescue group, and those have also held up great! SKD has done us all a solid by making such a great quality, low priced glove.
