Helikon-Tex Makes a Big Move in Innovating Shooting Gear – Check Out Their Brand-New Rangeman Gloves

Thursday, May 30th, 2019

Those plain-looking gloves are made to give you an enormously precise fit, no matter what you do. No sudden movements will knock your weapon loose, as the characteristic, “sticky” kangaroo leather keeps your grip safe and sound.

 

“These gloves were designed for those who appreciate the great features of genuine leather,” said Marcin Jedrzejczak, shooting instructor and the man responsible for developing Helikon-Tex Range Line. “Using natural leather lets us improve the breathability of the gloves while keeping the protection values and durability of the product. As a final result, we have a gear that’ll allow the user to handle a weapon freely, maintaining his safety. Protection and comfort, with no compromises – these are the main advantages of those gloves,” he adds.

The brand-new Helikon-Tex Rangeman® Gloves are there for you when the stakes are high, but you need a discrete – almost low-profile product.

Features:
– Kangaroo leather palm construction for durability
– Durable leather on finger tips for extra protection
– Gripper hook on wrist adjustment
– Elastic and durable external fabric
– Functional loop hanger
– Adjustable on the wrist

Price: $35.90
