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):
- *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.

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.

Amazing second layer of skin
As a woman with very small hands, even for a woman I was skeptical about purchasing these gloves, but I went ahead an made the leap. I will say they fit "tight" slightly extra tight but I feel they will break in a bit after awhile. (Much rather them tight then loose). Fin gers are bit long but fit perfect on thumbs an trigger finger (those are the important ones) There is no hands completely alike so finding gloves that are 100% is a stretch but these gloves are a solid 97% match for me, an to me that's amazing. The only gloves I'll use from now on.

PIG FDT CHARLIE GLOVES
These gloves are absolutely great! Glad to have found a women's version that fit so well, instead of having to buy men's gloves. These are very comfortable even if worn for hours and hours. For reference, I normally fit into Men's gloves size small and the women's version Medium is a perfect fit. You get what you pay for and these are absolutely the best gloves I've worn.

Perfect gloves
I've always worn men's small gloves and they are always still too long or fat for my fingers. I purchased these gloves basing my size off of the size chart (size Medium). I was a bit hesitant that I purchased the wrong size but they fit perfectly! They feel as if they're a second skin (closest glove feel would be those skin tight winter glove liners like the North Face etip gloves) which allows you to use your hands as if you're not wearing gloves. There's two thing in addition to the second skin feel of the glove that I like most, the ventilated palms and the touch screen finger tips (thumb and trigger). I don't think I ever had any gloves with ventilated palms and it was the weirdest yet most satisfying feel when I first felt the breeze hit my palm as if I was not wearing any gloves. The touch screen finger tips is a plus considering everyone knows how troublesome it is to remove gloves just to use any touchscreen devices. You won't go wrong purchasing these gloves, I guarantee it.

Very comfortable, very sensitive
Extremely comfortable. Finally a shooting glove for women that doesn't suck. Very flexible, allows the user to retain more tactile sensation than any other glove I had tried. Posted by Ian on behalf of his mother

Finally PIG Gloves for the ladies!
I have been wearing Men's PIG gloves in small for years. Although they have been ill fitting and loose I continued to wear them anyway as other gloves gloves never had the same quality and comfort. I have been waiting so long for the day SKD would make PIG gloves in my size. Upon receiving these I immediately tried them out at the range. I was pleasantly surprised by the stretch and flexibility of the gloves, a feature I never noticed before with gloves too large for my hands. Next, I enjoyed that the ladies gloves have a few stylish features that the men's gloves did not. The cut made this gloves feel like an extra layer of skin as it followed the contours of my hands perfectly. I also love that these gloves have ventilation built into the fingers and palms. While shooting I noticed that I didn't even feel them. Having gloves on that you can do all the necessaries with is such a plus. Did I mention both the trigger finger and thumb are touchscreen compatible! Huge bonus!
