Mechanix Recon Gloves, Covert

Black tactical gloves for military, law enforcement, and shooting sports. Fits like a glove, providing some hand protection while enabling you to use guns, operate cell phones, and do other things that you cannot manage with thicker gloves. Almost erotically sensual look and feel as a bonus.

• Pinched trigger finger design and flex joints.
• Comfortable stretch spandex on the back of the hand
• Touchscreen-capable 0.6 mm goatskin leather palm and thumb overlay
• Thermoplastic rubber closure
• Nylon carrier loops

Features

The back of the hand is made from comfortable stretch spandex. The palm and thumb overlay feature 0.6 mm goatskin leather, which improves durability but doesn’t interfere with dexterity. These aren’t your trench-digging work gloves though. There are better and cheaper options for very hard manual labor. Instead use them for shooting and other stuff where you need nimble fingers.

The pinched trigger finger design eliminates material overlap and flex joints improve finger mobility. The gloves also allow you to use touchscreens with your fingers. However, don’t try to write Shakespearean tragedies with these. Answering the phone and swiping away your Tinder dates works just fine. Thermoplastic rubber closure creates a snug fit to your wrist. These also feature Nylon carrier loops for easy storage.

Size info

Made according to the usual Mechanix sizes. The fit is on the tight side to get maximum sensitivity and precision.

The packages, at least in the first batch we got, show different numbers than before. Apparently, Mechanix has converted the normal US sizes to "EUR-sizes" by subtracting one, but this conversion does not apply to gloves. Don't get alarmed when you order e.g. size Large (US 10) and it says 9 / Large.

Manufactured by Mechanix Wear

Mechanix Wear is one of the most well-known glove companies in military circles. As the name might indicate, they were originally made for mechanics who value dexterity. However, they quickly found their way into military use since dexterity is also vital when using firearms. Nowadays Mechanix gloves are used by soldiers all over the world.
