Hatch Releases Task Specific Glove Line

Tuesday, August 18th, 2015

Hatch launches a new task specific glove line providing key innovation features for law enforcement and military personnel

ONTARIO, California – Hatch announced today that it has released its new Task Specific glove line, comprised of nine distinctive models with an emphasis on functionality for a variety of specific uses. The five innovative features on each model are the hallmarks of the line, including the Hatch Ergo-Cut™ Floating Thumb and patented Cut-Ring, which are signature innovations of the renowned Hatch brand. The Task Specific line is designed to meet the demands of law enforcement, military, shooting enthusiasts, and industrial uses alike.

“While gloves may not receive top billing in terms of gear attention, their ability to either help or hinder an officer makes a significant difference in the field,” said Scott Carnahan, Vice President, Equipment. “We factored all those subtle nuances into each glove – from how the glove interacts with an officer’s watch, to more complex features like the Ergo-Cut pattern. Every detail matters and we could not be more excited about bringing this line to market.”

Rather than a general-purpose police glove, this new line provides nine task-specific models each designed to address the specific nuances of an officer’s tactic in the field. Additionally, every glove in the line contains Hatch’s Five Points of Innovation:

Touchscreen-compatible knuckle to use with electronics in an effort to help keep an officer’s touchscreen uncontaminated from interactions in the field.

All-soft compression cuff is lightweight, comfortable and allows the glove to flex around a watch

Patented trigger finger Cut-Ring that provides for optional removal of index finger without unraveling the remaining edge of the glove

Signature Ergo-Cut Floating Thumb allows the glove to conform to the natural curvature of the hand and offers greater dexterity and freedom of movement than traditional designs

The articulated strap offers personalized adjustability as it is angled away from the wrist to accommodate a larger watch

The nine new models listed below – ranging from traffic, patrol, and special teams’ task – are available now and range in MSRP, based on model, from $29.99 to $79.99.

Triple Aught Design – CORE

Tuesday, August 18th, 2015

CORE is Triple Aught Design’s training arm, consisting of multiple unique training experiences that you won’t find elsewhere.

Take for example Field Forecasting, Disaster Dentistry and Edged Weapons Overview. Diverse as they are, the titles are straight forward and give you a good idea of what skills you are going to pick up. But I’m intrigued by an offering named Becoming Oddysseus which promises to be an in depth course in Red Teaming.

Sure, Edged Weapon training is quite common, but this one is from ShivWorks. There’s nothing average about that, and once you get into the various course descriptions you realize that rare opportunities like these are worth a trip to San Francisco.
