PIG Full Dexterity Tactical (FDT) Charlie - Women's Glove
PIG FDT Glove Sizing Chart
Ladies- tired of wearing men's tactical gloves that aren't the right fit? If you’ve ever wanted something better… your wish is now reality. Over 2 years in the making, the PIG FDT-Charlie Glove (Patented) uses gender-specific patterns to bring the perfect tactical fit of the FDT-Alpha gloves to the female shooter or operator. The FDT-Charlie offers ground breaking dexterity while providing much needed protection from the rigors of tactical work.
Developed by a Rogers Shooting School“Advanced” graduate with over a decade of experience in instructing Military and Law Enforcement personnel, the FDT-Charlie Gloves were designed to minimize impact on the female shooter’s grip. Instead of following the tired old routine of reinventing the Aviator Flight Glove, or making a “cool-looking" glove with padding and layers in all the wrong places, the PIG design team partnered with a sports-glove industrial designer to ensure that all the sizing benchmarks for women's gloves were met while maintaining the functional tactical design features of the PIG FDT-Alpha glove.
Featuring several industry firsts, the FDT-Charlie allows unfettered access to all your firearms controls and manipulations, without the overwhelming bulk of unnecessary padding and layers. When it comes to gloves you can shoot with, contrary to most of the other tactical gloves on the market, less IS more… the less you feel your gloves, the better you can shoot with them. As with ALL PIG Full Dexterity Tactical Gloves manufactured after summer 2015, the trigger fingers and thumbs feature conductive material to work with your touchscreen devices.
FEATURES (* indicates industry firsts for a tactical glove):
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. Priced competitively for the non-FR women's utility glove market, the PIG FDT-Charlies are the latest in a ground-breaking line of tactical gloves from PIG.

Woman's Charlie Pig Glove
I love the styling and material but sizing is WAY off. They run extremely small. You need to include more info about how to order correct size. Might have reordered 3 times (from XS to M) hoping to get correct fit. The extras fees in shipping are making these very expensive . Rating would be higher if I didn't have to go through this

Fantastic Gloves
I am new to PIG gloves. I've used several varieties of Mechanix as well as Oakley. Really happy with these. They fit like they were personally tailored. The function of touch response to electronics work without a hitch. They were super snug when I first put them on, but are pretty comfortable now. I sized them according to the size chart measurements and they fit exactly how I want them. I've since purchased a second pair in black. Heck ya

Much better but not quite perfect for me
As a man with very feminine hands, it is very difficult for me to find gloves in this segment that fit my hands well. Usually if the fingers are right, the palm is comically loose. Earlier I purchased a medium sized pair of the pig alpha gloves. While the palms on those fit well, i blew out the fingertips within three weeks. The charlie gloves retain the best qualities of the pig alpha gloves while being sized to fit my hands better with smaller palms and longer fingers. an XL charlie model glove is roughly equivalent to a medium alpha model in my experience I do wish that the fingers on the charlies were just 3/32 of an inch longer in size XL though. A little bit of thicker material right at the very tip of the fingers (not the pad of the finger but the tip right where a person's finger nails end) because on my alpha gloves, it was almost as if my fingernails cut though the leather in the fingertips and i'm worried that will be the point of failure in my charlies as well.

They fit my tiny ass fingers!
I had given up on looking for gloves, sunglasses, and other items that are too huge for my tiny body. My gardening gloves have Mickey Mouse on them cuz they're for kids. Seriously these gloves are the shit and I can move my lil hands around no problem😭. thank you for catering to tiny women who like to shoot guns and are law enforcement/military. Seriously I love them, they fit like a glove! 😅

They finally fit her hands....
I train with a female that has extremely petite hands. She can't find gloves that fit properly ANYWHERE else. I bought a pair of the coyote women's extra small Pig gloves in the hopes that they'd fit her tiny digits. When they arrived we were both incredibly happy to find they fit like a..........glove. I've been running men's large Pig gloves for nearly two years and they are still holding up great. Read the sizing instructions and then BUY THESE GLOVES.

best glove todate
My wife and I have tried both Mechanix and 5.11 gloves (I don't recall the 5.11 model right now) but these are better than those. Comfort and dexterity is better.
