PIG Full Dexterity Tactical (FDT) Alpha Gloves
If you’ve ever worn tactical gloves while shooting and wished for something better… your wish is now reality.
The PIG FDT Alpha Gloves offer 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 Gloves are 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 FDT glove
Most comfortable light-weight gloves I've found for me. Consistent sizing order to order. Good deal when I look at all the other gloves in my treasure box that I tried but don't wear for one reason or another. SKD makes it abundently clear these gloves aren't for heavy contstruction work.

PIG FDT-Alpha Gloves
Fantastic gloves, they had great dexterity (hence the name), a nice tight fit, and holes for your skin to breathe in the heat. That said, these aren't winter gloves. I recommend buying a size larger, because even though I have tiny hands, small fit me a little too snugly. Great gloves; BUY THEM!

best fitting gloves I've ever had!
I'm very picky when it comes to gloves, and these are the best pairs I've ever had, bar none. Curling and flexing the fingers feels like there were no gloves on. I still need to try them out in trainings and check the long term durability, but so far they've been great!

Great gloves...Be careful with sizing
I bought two pair of these gloves, one L and one XL as I was between sizes. The L will be great for shooting, but may wear out prematurely due to fingers rubbing at tips. The XL should be fine but are slightly long in fingers. I'm glad I bought both so I could see the difference. They are very comfortable and so far seem of high quality. I would definitely recommend them as they are the best I've found . Hope this helps.

Glove heaven on earth!!
THE best glove!! Unbelievable fit, I usually order XL in general gloves, ordered Large for the tactical app. Perfect fit.

Great glove works well in hot or cold
Not as fancy looking as the Oakley glove, but definitely a solid piece of kit. Very snug fitting and good range of motion. Good trigger feel through the finger pad and seems to allow manipulation of the small parts on a carbine or auto pistol.

So far, so impressed!
I've been a fan of the Mechanix line of gloves for a while now, but was looking to try something different. I came across the PIG FDT-Alpha, and figured for the price, they were worth a try. So far, I'm very impressed! Pros: Thicker & Thinner in the spots where they need to be. Comfortable, lightweight, and breathe well Cons: None really One extra note, I have small hands, and prefer a sz Small in the Mechanix gloves for a tighter fit. The PIG FDT-A's seem to run a bit smaller, so a sz Med actually works VERY well for me.

Overall great gloves/great experience
SKD and my online shopping experience were nothing less than awesome. Other than the incredibly long back-order and wait - once I actually placed my order for these gloves, everything went smoothly. The gloves themselves are awesome too. Quality product - especially for the price they're outstanding. They look good, they're well made. The only thing is that the sizing is tricky. I realize they're supposed to fit "snug" as they are meant to be a "skin sensitive" shooting glove, but they run a tad on the small size. I feel they're the tiniest bit short. My hands aren't particularly long or anything, but they seem to cut more at the palm instead of the wrist. Maybe I prefer a slightly longer glove, but where they cut-off is the slightest bit uncomfortable on my palm. Next pair I'm going to try an XL and see if they're better without being "baggy" or sacrificing "skin sensitivity".... Overall great product/experience!
