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.

FDT-Alpha Glove Back-order
I think that these gloves are exactly as advertised. They are a second skin and are priced appropriately. However, make sure to use the sizing chart and measure your hand several times to determine your size. If you must return a pair because of improper fit be prepared for a LONG, LONG wait for the new pair. I waited 8 months for them to become available initially and they were back ordered again the following day. Buying from SKD Tactical is like purchasing from a vending machine. You cannot communicate with a person except through e-mail and even then you will probably get a reply along the lines of "read the FAQ". The serious shortage of these gloves may be a ploy by the company to make the gloves more valuable in the future, you know, supply & demand? One would think that they would have a better handle on the supply side. Enough said. Carry on!

Bad Ass Gloves
Solid gloves. I'd been waiting a while for them to become available and they are definitely worth the wait. I definitely recommend these gloves for any type of law enforcement individual who's looking for an everyday glove. The gloves offer a snug, secure fit. Almost all dexterity remains while wearing these gloves. I'm able to type on a keyboard and even perform basic tasks on an iPhone (texting is a little tricky). If you're looking for a well made, quality gloves then you can't go wrong with these. *The only issue that I've noticed so far with these gloves is when activating a small flashlight one handed (Surefire G2X in this case) with your thumb it becomes uncomfortable to hold down as the fabric in the thumb region doesn't have too much play and places pressure on the distal thumb joint. Other than the thumb issue, great gloves!

PIG Gloves
Bought these because I'd read so many good reviews on them. Well, those reviews were all right.....these are great gloves. The don't restrict your movement at all, they fit my hand perfectly and none of the seams are in the wrong place to cause any discomfort. They are well worth the money.

Holy Fuck
Ive owned a metric shit ton of tactical gloves over the years. Oakley, Blackhawk, Mechanix, issued nomex, etc. Nothing comes close to the attributes these bad boys bring to the table. Basically, if these gloves were a female body part in another world, they would be the best pair of boobies you ever let your eyes on.

Pig FTD gloves.
Picked up three at the SKD discount. Between training and running carbine classes I go thru a pair about once a year. I'm currently using the ORCrossbow. The Pig FDT's are about 1/4 the price and I'm hoping to get good wear out of them. Initial fit is just as good as my OR gloves, snug but not restrictive in movement. The Clarino synthetic leather is thinner but dexterity is improved. I feel SKD made the correct choice with the cordura backed nuckle padding. It offers good protection without the annoying hard plastic. I find the plastic offer poor fit and restrict movement. I'm still at a loss as to why some manufacturers use them. These gloves have a lot of usefull, well thought out features. Space limits me on this review but overall I would rate them a solid 4stars. It would be 5 however, they are not US made, but the price point would be much higher as well.
