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.

- 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.

These gloves are awesome
I have pretty normal hands. I'm 5'9 inches tall, and my hands are bigger than everyone shorter than me and the same as everyone my height, so it suprised me when by SKD's sizing chart, I was recommended the small-size glove. PAY ATTENTION TO THEIR SIZING CHART. I was really worried that when these gloves came in they would be too small, and I might not have enough time to exchange them before my "deployment" to Iraq coming up. These gloves are really, really nice. I never paid attention to how inhibiting my old issue gloves were, but there are seriously some high-speed, low-drag mfers. Feel like a straight ninja wearing them. I haven't field tested them yet, so I can't such much on durability, but unless they explode on first use, I will continue to get these over and over again. And I got the black gloves, they look awesome.

Pig Alpha Touch Glove
Gloves so far work great. Ordered medium and I feel that they fit true to size, no need to order a size up or anything. The touch feature is perfect and works well on my iPhone too. Stand out feature is definitely the padded knuckles and no-seam finger tips for a little extra dexterity. Only downside is they're definitely not cold-weather proof, but hey that's not why I bought them nor did I expect it to be. Great glove all around, glad I bought them. Allows me to maintain good grip and control of my pistol when drawing from duty holster on calls-for-service.

Awesome gear just what I wanted
I have tried a few other gloves to shoot with and just could not decide if I liked them. I wore these once and I am speechless. I love these gloves. I would recommend and did to my nephew and he now is hooked as well. Nice job SKD

Excellent patrol gloves. Great dexterity; I use them every day on patrol, and they are also perfect shooting gloves!

Tight fit, Perfect design.
When I first got the gloves in the mail and tried them on they felt to small. I had ordered small gloves, according to the chart they should fit "like a glove" which they do very well! It took a few minutes to look at one hand out of the glove and look at the other in the glove. the design was incredible, I have never worn gloves that fit so well. They are very snug but Im glad I didnt send them back to get a size larger. They fit "perfect" on my hands, will take a little getting used to the way they feel on my hands for the soul reason i have never worn gloves so well formed to the human hand. The shipping from SKD was amazing as usual, took 2 days to get to my house from MO to MT. SKD is the bomb! PIG gloves are amazing, Im gunna buy a few extras ;) for wife and me! Gunna be like a wife and her shoes, only With gloves! Hellz Ya!

Wearing the PIG
This is my second set of PIG Gloves, this go around I got the Touch added. The original pair of gloves are actually doing quite well and I wanted to get at least one more pair as a spare. These gloves are great! Flexible, a bit of padding over the knuckles. I will be buying yet another pair when one of these two pair I have goes the way of the Dodo.

why I bought these gloves
I initially bought one pair of these gloves on the recommendation of Kyle Lamb in a magazine article on gloves. I liked them so much I then purchased two more pair of them. When my wife tried and liked them, I had to order two more pair to replace the ones that she appropriated. The gloves are extremely thin and offer great sensation for handling small items, yet protect my hands from dangerous conditions. I recently completed a tactical shotgun class and managed to get my fingers caught between the magazine tube and the shell lifter numerous times. The gloves protected my hands and I was able to keep all of the blood in my hands where it belongs.
