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.

Best gloves ever worn.
The only gloves I can compare this to would be the Condor shooter gloves; Oranges and Apples! Great fit, awesome flexibility, padding where needed, low profile everywhere else. Bought these medium to replace smalls but came to realize the smalls weren't too bad where the mediums were more comfortable with the minor room.

Unicorn pubis.... Hehe
Great product. Will not use any other gloves. Works on all touchscreens. I couldn't stop laughing after reading the back of package.

Alpha Touch is Meh
PIG Full Dex. gloves are great. You trade durability for dexterity and bare hand feel. I get that. However, the "Alpha Touch" part left me pretty disappointed. First the only difference is a few stitches in the fingers using some kind of conductive thread. Kinda of cheesy but what the heck, if it works whatever. The problem is the the thread they use snags on any rough surface: sand paper, Velcro, tape, etc. After a few uses just handling normal tools and items the thread has almost completely pulled out. Overall the gloves still work but I wouldn't buy the "Alpha" version. Picture after first week of use: http://postimg.org/image/5vg6tuhp7/

As Expected
Don't get me wrong, I want a PIG glove that is 100% impenetrable, water-proof and fire-proof and has the dexterity that PIG Alpha has, but PIG hasn't found the right combination yet. Until then, I'll still buy PIG Alphas (I'm on my 3rd pair) based on their dexterity alone. I've used them in the field, extreme courses, and at the range and they do their job. While I consider them semi-expendable they do the trick and well worth the price... Just don't expect them to survive a rock-climbing expedition. A as shooters glove ,it's almost impossible to find better.

Good feel
The gloves give a good feel and grip. I have small hands for a guy (6.25 ring size for an idea) and the size small gloves fit good. My only issue would be when I spread my hand out flat there is pulling on the material between the thumb and forefinger, to where I would be concerned it would pull stitching or rip. While gripping a gun this is not a problem.

Love them
Gloves fit good and I have great dexterity , the silver threads for use with touch screen work very well and are not bulky.

Best shooting glove i've used
this glove is top of the line for shooting. the design of the glove conforms to bending of the fingers. the glove has a tight, snug fit, but allows hands to breath. fingers fit well, with the forefinger being able to be used for cell phone operation a real plus - no more taking the glove off to answer the phone or text.
