Mechanix Wear Tactical Specialty 0.55mm Black Gloves

Thin-Palm Shooting Glove

The Mechanix Wear Specialty 0.5mm Covert is a lightweight shooting glove for people who need to feel the trigger, the magazine release and the slide through what they wear. Its palm is a single 0.5mm layer of synthetic suede, so your hands get a layer of protection while keeping most of the feel of a bare hand. Mechanix lists shooting sports, law enforcement and military use as its intended roles, and the all-black Covert colorway keeps it low-key on a duty belt or at the range.

Features

• 0.5mm AX-Suede Palm — AX-Suede is Mechanix's synthetic suede, and at 0.5mm thick it gives precise trigger feel and fine control over small controls.
• TrekDry Back Of Hand — The breathable TrekDry mesh on the back conforms to your hand and lets heat and sweat escape during long range sessions.
• Expandable Flex Joints — Stretch panels over the knuckles move with your fingers, so the trigger finger bends freely instead of fighting the glove.
• Anatomical Stitch Darts — Shaped seams follow the natural curve of the hand for a close fit with little loose material bunching in the palm.
• Low-Profile TPR Closure — A thermoplastic rubber (TPR) tab with hook-and-loop fastening cinches the wrist securely without adding bulk under a sleeve cuff.
• Nylon Carrier Loop — A loop at the cuff lets you clip the pair to a belt, pack or plate carrier when your hands are free.
• EN 388 Rated 1121X — Tested to the European standard for mechanical hazards, it scores at the light-duty end for abrasion, blade cut, tear and puncture, which suits a dexterity glove rather than a work glove.
• Machine Washable — You can wash the gloves in a machine after a range day.

Fit, Sizing And Care

The Specialty 0.5mm Covert comes in five sizes, Small through XX-Large, under Mechanix model number MSD-55 for the black colorway. It is cut close to the hand, so the thin palm sits flat against the grip with no folds under the trigger finger. Because the palm is so thin, treat this as a feel and grip glove for shooting and handling gear, not as protection from sharp edges or heavy abrasion.
