All New PIG FDT Executive Glove

Saturday, March 26th, 2022

Launched on Thursday, SKD Tactical’s new PIG FDT Executive Glove is very well executed.

This leather glove features a thin, premium sheepskin leather back of hand from Pittards. It’s very supple with just the right amount of stretch.

Buy your normal size. These dress gloves are quite snug at first but will give slightly over time and feel like a second skin.

They feature a short cuff and Grippy TPR pull tab to get them on. I used the touchscreen compatible synthetic suede thumb and forefinger this morning and they work great. Additionally, the palm and fingers feature grip printing for enhanced tacky grip.

In order to achieve this amazing level of peak performance, the OG utilizes extremely light, thin materials which by their very nature will not stand up to extremely long periods of hard abuse but will perform through several mission-focused cycles.

Magpul Flight Glove 2.0

Thursday, January 13th, 2022

Magpul has updated their popular Flight Glove to a 2.0 configuration. The change is mainly due to the addition of touch screen compatible fingertips (three fingers) due to the wide proliferation of digital screens in cockpits and the use of touch screen enabled End User Devices by ground forces. However, they’ve also beefed up the construction a bit without sacrificing dexterity.

They feature Flash-resistant Nomex and Kevlar back of hand for flame and anti-static protection along with durable and soft one-piece goatskin leather palm and finger construction for enhanced feel and control of firearms.

Black, Coyote, and Sage in sizes S-2XL.
