Review: Cut the side tab inside. - A great fit. Inside, on the side, you'll need to trim the side label. Mine was ever so slightly, poking out, and catching the side of my hand. A quick easy trim, and all's fine. A good fit. I have decent sized hands, but hate gloves that are large with extra long fingers... Not these. The finger length is perfect. I went for size large. PERFY FIT. I didn't rate durability, cos I've only had a week or so.... SEE UPDATE. Comfy to wear Good price Quality gear Look good on. Definitely cuts out the wind, but not declaring windproof. So far it's kept my hands warm, even in the current cold winds. Worth it. Go get some. Widely worn by those in the services, and I can see why. UPDATE I still love these gloves. 4 weeks on, and these are my go to gloves Will add waterproof spray later to make them perfect. Not particularly quick drying (couple hours in ambient conditions), but do comfy. even on cold blowy days, my hands are kept warm. If I put them on after getting cold, my hands are quick to warm up. 4 weeks on from purchase, and I love them, and will be buying more.
Review: Great gloves - Awesome gloves, fit great, durable, look great and are very high quality. Price is great too considering the quality of the product

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these bulletproof? Will they block 7.62×39mm and 5.56×45mm nato rounds?**
A: Mine stopped a 20mm round fired at me from an A10.
The dexterity was exceptional. So good in fact, it helped me to pick up my entrenching tool which I hurled at the plane literally knocking it out of the sky.
Oh, they also protect your hand from heavy objects. An Abrams tank ran over mine and except for a little pressure I didn’t feel a thing.
They can also withstand a bite from a 18’ Great White. 
Seriously, some of these questions are ridiculous. Stop eating Tide Pods you bunch of morons....

**Q: HOW DO I FIND OUT MY HAND SIZE?**
A: I tried the hand size chart, and it tells me "Large", except I have trouble fitting into a 2X (XXL) glove. Take it with a grain of salt, and go find a store, try on various maker's sizes to actually find your size.

**Q: Would the 2X-small fit a 13 year old**
A: There really is no right answer for this. I've seen a 13 yr old that was 6'2" & 240lbs who used size XL gloves. I'm 18 yrs old 5'8" & 140lbs and I usesize small.

**Q: Please, what is difference between XX-LARGE and 2X-Large? I need size 12" (28cm-30cm) and what do you think that is the right size?**
A: Hi, Since I am not a seller, don't know why you are asking me about the size but here is a link that might helps you to find right size for you.http://www.mechanix.com/mech_download/76cd7a04f05ed8bd88e173cb0379ea9eIf the link does not work, please visit www.mechanix.com and see the bottom of the page. There is a link for glove sizing chart under the 'store' section. I hope this helps you.

Awesome gloves, fit great, durable, look great and are very high quality. Price is great too considering the quality of the product

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Finger savers
*by J***E on 26 March 2025*

Probably the best pair of gloves I’ve had. Quite protective, as they saved my fingers from my bench planer a few times. The grip isn’t the best, but they did the job for me perfectly. They look great and have lasted me almost 2 years before finally wearing through and having to order a new pair. Very comfy and easy to clean in a washing machine.
