Outstanding gloves for work and funDecember 10, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I wear these gloves for work, where I am constantly digging with a shovel, pick, or bar and they are outstanding. They endure as long as any good pair of work gloves should. I also use them to operate heavy equipment which requires dexterity from a glove and they perform well there as well. More interestingly however is that I wear them skydiving. While skydiving it is necessary to use a glove that allows you to feel so that you can find your hacky used to deploy your main parachute... and if necessary so that you may feel your emergency handles. It is also desired to have somewhat of a sticky texture for the very same reason, as well as to maintain a good grip on other skydivers when doing "relative work". Despite the fact that these are "fast fit" they do not come off in the air, though they do allow me to remove them quickly if necessary. I have recently been jumping in cold weather as well. I add silk liners when jumping in cold weather but they are the only gloves I can use with the liners and still maintain very good dexterity and feel, and are plenty warm when combined with the liners.
nice comfortable protectionNovember 10, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
these gloves continue my good experiance with mechanix line of gloves I like the fast fit because I fuel aircraft and need to put them on and off, I also liked them for the color this allow better hand signals to be used. there fairly warm on frosty mornings but handling wet ropes they get pretty wet I don't count this against them though.

Keeps hands warm when working on the car during winterApril 21, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought these for my husband for use in his wood shop (1 pair) and a second pair for use when he works on the car. We have an unheated garage and minimally heated wood shop. During the winter months (in Wisconsin) it allows his hands to be warm when working!
