The gloves are really very comfortable and fit the hand perfectly. Nothing squeezes or causes chafing. The additional strap at the wrist makes the glove sit more securely on the hand, which convinced me to give up on the basic Mechanix models.
Mechanix Wear Original Core 3 Tactical Gloves - Leather
Universal durable gloves designed to provide basic mechanical protection. With a proper fit, they enable full control of grip and do not restrict performing precise tasks. Suitable for law enforcement personnel, military, individuals engaged in shooting sports, as well as during survival expeditions, automotive workshop work, DIY activities, or airsoft games.
Breathable CoolPlus material, touchscreen compatibility, Lock Ring and Snag-Guard technology
The upper part of the gloves is made from a breathable, lightweight material CoolPlus, which reduces hand sweating and ensures optimal ventilation. The one-piece material construction reduces the number of seams and increases the durability of the gloves. The model features Snag-Guard technology, reducing the risk of snagging and tearing the gloves when working in tight spaces. The durable DuraHide leather, used for the gripping area, provides high resistance when working with heavy tools or various tasks, e.g., on construction sites. The Lock Ring panel protects the critical area around the thumb, increasing the durability of the construction and reducing seams prone to damage.
Strong, adjustable TPR closure, Freedom-Flex cuff, 2-piece palm construction
The cuff is secured with a TPR strap (Thermoplastic Rubber as per EN 13594 standard) using Velcro. The 2-piece inner palm and stitched Freedom-Flex cuff minimise material rolling and accumulation, improving glove fit and ensuring full freedom of movement. The palm's lower part is equipped with ventilated lining, which improves air circulation and protects against injuries.
EN 388-3122X Protective standard
The gloves meet the EN388 protective standard at level 3122X for mechanical resistance, which includes:
- 3: abrasion resistance (scale 0-4)
- 1: cut resistance (scale 0-5)
- 2: tear resistance (scale 0-4)
- 2: puncture resistance (scale 0-4)
- X: cut resistance - TDM test (ISO 13997) (scale A-F)
The scales specified in the EN388 standard define the level of glove protection: a value of 0 means no protection, whereas the highest values (4, 5) indicate maximum resistance.
In TDM (ISO 13997) testing, letter notations are used, where A represents the lowest protection, and F the highest.
Notation X indicates that the particular parameter was not tested or is not applicable.

Great gloves, you can immediately see they are well made. Although the price is not low, it's worth investing – they fit well on your hands, don’t cause discomfort and don’t make your hands excessively sweaty. They are lightweight and have practical loops for attaching them to a backpack. I definitely recommend them.
-
These gloves are really great. Very well made! I also have a few other models without the Velcro fastening, but I must admit that from now on I will only choose those with the strap, because they fit better on the hand.
-
Mechanix gloves are truly top tier in themselves. This particular model fits the hand very well, even despite the short cuff and fastening on the underside. It's also a big advantage that if, for example, size M is suitable, there's a high probability the same size will fit in other models (in about 95% of cases).
-
Excellent quality gloves which are true to size. I own multiple pairs of these gloves and I have never been disappointed with them and I use them for playing airsoft, DIY, and bushcraft stuff.
-
The gloves fit perfectly on the hands, they are breathable, so your hands don't sweat and don't have an unpleasant smell, even though they are made of synthetic materials. They are characterised by great precision and durability. They even perform well when digging in the ground. I definitely recommend them.
-
Traditional tactical gloves that fit well on the hands and do not hinder precise movements. They provide protection against abrasions when using equipment, and the MultiCam camouflage matches well with the rest of the gear.
-
After losing the first pair, I bought them again. They practically have no flaws, only according to the description they have weak protection against cuts, but I haven't checked this personally. They are versatile, durable, and do not get damaged.
-
The gloves were selected according to the indicated size chart. They are a bit too narrow, and the fingers seem too long. However, perhaps they will adapt during use. The Velcro looks like it might wear out quickly.
-
I think I already have three pairs of these gloves and they have never let me down. They are well made, fit nicely on the hand, and are comfortable to wear. They allow air through and dry quickly after getting wet, and even when wet they still work well during work.
-
Great gloves, they work well during use in the field. The size is perfectly matched. With very intensive and demanding use, they may wear out quickly, but despite this, they are still worth recommending.
-
The gloves present very high quality, which is clear at first glance. Their price is not the lowest, but they are worth the money. They fit the hand perfectly, do not pinch, and your hand does not sweat too much. They are lightweight and equipped with practical loops that allow you to conveniently attach them to a backpack. I definitely recommend them.
-
They are Mechanix, after all. Outstanding workmanship and stitching as usual, very comfortable to wear and a perfect fit if you choose the right size. Even back in my service days, they were my favourite.
-
Great gloves – they have already protected my fingers from mechanical injuries several times, so they fulfil their function perfectly. I think I'll have to order another pair, they're really worth it.
-
The gloves are really very comfortable and versatile. The range of tasks you can do in them is huge: from heavy stone, bricks and unloading shipments to working in the garden, with cars and various tools. The size L was a bit stiff and tight at first, but literally in a couple of days the leather softened and fit the hand perfectly. The protection is excellent, sensitivity is normal, except that it is not convenient to tighten very small nuts – you'll have to try hard not to drop them. The main downside is the factory glue. I started working in them, and after 5 days the black pad between the thumb and index finger had already begun to peel off – there's no stitching at the edges there at all. And the gloves are new, I haven't even washed them yet. I had to glue it back myself to prevent it from falling off completely (in the attached photo, the glove is already after I re-glued it myself). When buying, I recommend paying close attention to the model photos: it's better to choose an option where this black pad at the bend is NORMALLY STITCHED with threads, not just glued. Then you won't have any problems. For this money, a flaw with the gluing is very unpleasant, and the quality control at the factory disappointed me.
