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.

My first shooting gloves
I have wanted a good pair of shooting gloves for a long time. I don't normaly were gloves any time except when it's real cold out, but when I shoot, some of my handguns downright hurt my hands. So when I saw that these were made expressly for shooting I decided to give them a try. I wore them around the house for a while to get used to them and the sizing chart helped me get the right size and when my new local indoor gun range opened up I went and tried them out. They did a fine job of keeping the guns from hurting my hands and I used them for everything while there, they were very comfortable and I never took them off. I was able to load my guns and get stuff out of my pockets and hang targets just fine, I even adjusted my sights with them on so I think I can safely say that they are well worth getting. I cannot compare them to any other gloves since they are my first other than winter gloves but I like them and can safely recommend them to you.

Without Equal
I've been using tactical gloves for the past ten years or so, first in the military then in law enforcement, for every activity from shooting to searching to keeping my hands warm in the middle of the night. These gloves are superior in almost every way to previous pairs I've owned- including name brand Mechanix, Oakley, Blackhawk, etc. Will definitely be ordering more when my size is back in stock. Speaking of which- excellent job on the email notifications. I got the email and pulled the trigger about 5 minutes later on my iPhone. Gloves were on my doorstep 3 days later. Outstanding customer service!

These are gloves you're looking for.
I hate wearing gloves when I shoot or go hunting; I like to feel the firearm in my hands. So when I go out in the woods I don’t wear gloves no matter how cold it is.... until I found these. Nothing can describe how great these gloves are, there probably is but I can't think of it. They have dexterity and you don't lose too much of the feeling in your hands... and there kinda warm too.

VERY Good Gloves
Best gloves I have had by far. I can see them wearing out eventually but seem like they are going to outlast all the other gloves I have used.

Great
Fit and finish are outstanding. The way they feel when worn is similar to a good pair of military style nomex gloves (although much better quality and dexterity) Only shot with them once but they work as advertised, only gave 4 stars since I'm not sure how long they will last with heavy use. Will be ordering more when they get more in stock

Just WOW!
Got these gloves (3 pair) in the mail about a week after I ordered them. They all fit "like a glove" (pun intended) right out of the package. I conducted a few dozen weapons manipulation drills with my AR, 1911, and Glock, did some pushups, zipped and unzipped a jacket, buttoned and unbuttoned a collared shirt, tied my Asolo's, etc. In a word: Flawless. I thought that my Oakley tactical gloves would be as close as I could get to having some real manual dexterity in a user-glove, but man, was I ever wrong! I even played an hour of COD wearing them, and didn't have any issues manipulating the controller (or drinking my beer), other than getting PWND by some 10-year old kids. LOL Thanks again for making these gloves. The thought and effort that was put into making these is apparent, and I will definitely recommend them to all of my fellow dirty contractors and MIL/LE buddies. :D

PIG Full Dexterity Tactical (FDT-Alpha) Glove
Measured hands as per site instructions and accordingly ordered size small. Gloves arrived expeditiously but did not fit. Gave to a friend but now mediums are out of stock. Wrist width should be figured into measurements. My wrists measure 8.5" and I could not close the Velcro wrist closures.

Glad I got my order in before these sold out
Wow..considering most decent tactical gloves are twice the price, these are by far the best I have ever worn! They are so well designed that you forget you have gloves on after a while. I bought these after a friend reccommended them and can vouch for their durability. I'm stil not sure if I'm a L or an XL but ordered a L and they are right on the cusp of being to small. Hopefully the will break in. Add you name to the email list and get these damn things.

Believe the hype...
It's justified. There's a reason these sold out completely within 72 hours of being restocked. I'm a LEO and a Firearms Instructor and I've tried most of the competitor's offerings in this category over the years. In my not-so-humble opinion, these might actually BE the ultimate shooting gloves. They aren't particularly warm - not what they're designed for - but they fit perfectly, one might say skin-tight, yet allow for full flex and range of motion, without binding or compressing. They are VERY comfortable. And after prolonged exposure in the weeds at night working an operation, the nose-wipe is a very welcome feature as the temperature drops! Durability remains to be assessed; time will tell, though they seem as well-built as any. Do yourself a favor, right now: Put in a request to be notified by email when they're restocked. When you get that email, jump with both feet (quickly; the window closes fast!). You won't be disappointed. I wasn't
