Mechanix Wear: M-Pact 3 Tactical Work Gloves, Touchscreen Capability, Synthetic Leather Gloves, Finger Reinforcement and Impact Protection, Work Gloves for Men (Black, Medium)

I use these for just about anything. Mostly I wear them while on the ranch, construction, anything under the sun. They can get some wear and tear on them depending on how much use, and what you're doing. I am very satisfied with quality, and it's good for the price. Make sure you get the right size, that is the most important part of selecting gloves like this.

Well made and comfortable

These are nice gloves, but they run small. I always take XXL, but these were really hard to put on. If the wrist was just a big larger, they would be fine. I will be wearing them quite a bit in hopes they break in after a bit. I purchased them for shooting, but they could be used for heavy wrenching. The dexterity of the gloves are not good enough to do fine mechanic work. They may not have enough dexterity for shooting but we shall see. I sure do wish they had been just a bit bigger though. Oh well, I guess I will keep looking.

My son loved them he wore and washed them.

OJ would be jealous of these fine, well constructed,easily hidden gloves. They work great protecting my hands from debris, sharp objects and guilty verdicts.

Great build and very comfortable

As an EMT, any tool that'll make my job a lot easier without being cumbersome is a ok in my bag; most especially when it comes to utility gloves. I need a glove that is light, easy to put on, and can grip like a lobster, this glove does it and then some.I've chosen Mechanix since a lot of my crewmembers swear by it and often carry two pairs at work. I figured, "why not? If it works, I'd give it a shot.Eventually I got mine as shown and in medium. The glove fits, perfectly! Not a flaw on the glove and I don't even feel any heft on this. The gloves also has a breathable area behind the fingers; making it relatively comfortable to wear in hot weather. What I like most about this glove is that it has a hard, plastic-like shield on the knuckles. Super handy when reaching into something surrounded by sharp glass or when things go "Code 5" on that one 911 call. It may also be great for paintball as well, though I have yet to try it out.The grip on this one is not to be underestimated, either. I use this a lot when carrying patients using either a stairchair or the Reeves. It never let's me down and it GRIPS. I 'm only about 5'4" with short legs and even shorter arms....kind of hard getting any leverage lifting patients out of a house and into a stretcher. Having extra grip certainly helps a lot and this glove does it well. That and being durable doesn't hurt, either. Still looks new after several months use. And I like the fact that it is completely in tactical black unlike the other Mechanix gloves I've seen so far, where the logos are contrasted in white or other super bright colors. The blacked out glove gives that "I mean business" look, and it is awesome.If there's any drawbacks to this, it's not a substitute for disposable gloves. You cannot use these gloves to handle bodily fluids for other hazmat. Check with your local protocols first. Also, it's not insulated for cold weather use and it is not waterproof. And just like most gloves, precision work is limited unless you either purchase the fingerless versions or cut the fingers yourself.Other than that, it's worth the investment. While it is primarily tailored for LE/military duties, it certainly works great for almost any job you can think of. If I ever lose this for any reason, I will gladly buy these again.

I'm not sure who was in charge of the thumbs on these gloves, but they are oddly long. Maybe it's just me, but I'm fairly sure I don't have stubby thumbs... not so much that there is about a half-inch of of material just flopping around. The rest of the fingers fit just fine, but that thumb though.
