Mechanix Wear Cold Weather SUB20 Tactical Gloves - Realtree Edge
Winter tactical gloves SUB20 feature realistic Realtree Edge camouflage. They provide excellent protection against cold, abrasions, and cuts.
Synthetic leather with Padlock coating
The palm side of these gloves is crafted from synthetic leather and features a silicone, anti-slip Padlock coating to boost grip security. The embossed trigger finger with extra reinforcement allows for precise firearm manipulation.
3M Thinsulate insulation and Hipora membrane
The 3M Thinsulate 100 g inner insulating layer excels at retaining warmth for superior thermal comfort. Equipped with a waterproof Hipora membrane, it ensures breathability while preventing excessive perspiration. Additional cold protection is offered by the HotHands thermal pocket sewn inside the gloves.
Extended cuffs, snap fasteners and loops for easy carrying
A snug cuff ensures it fits well around the wrists and has been lengthened to improve defense against cold air. Snap fasteners and loops on the wrist make it easy to secure the gloves, simplifying transport and storage.
Touchscreen compatibility
The touchscreen-compatible feature enables the use of mobile devices without taking off the gloves.
EN388-3122XX and EN511 120 Standards
The gloves meet the EN388 protective standard at level 3122XX in terms of resistance to mechanical hazards, which means:
- 3: abrasion resistance (on a scale of 0–4)
- 1: cut resistance (on a scale of 0–5)
- 2: tear resistance (on a scale of 0–4)
- 2: puncture resistance (on a scale of 0–4)
- X: cut resistance – TDM test (ISO 13997) (on a scale of A–F)
- X: impact protection (test passed)
Cold protection complies with the EN511 standard at level 120, which means:
- 1: resistance to cold air penetration (on a scale of 0–4)
- 2: resistance to contact cold (on a scale of 0–4)
- 0: water penetration resistance (0 or 1)
The scales specified in the EN388 and EN511 standards define the level of glove protection: a value of 0 indicates no protection, while the highest values (4, 5) indicate the maximum level of resistance. In the case of water penetration resistance, 0 indicates penetration and 1 indicates no penetration.
In the TDM (ISO 13997) test method, letter markings are used, where A indicates the lowest level of protection, and F the highest.
The X marking indicates that a given parameter was not tested or is not applicable. The P marking indicates that the glove meets the impact protection requirements.

Camouflage Realtree Edge
Realtree Edge is a lifelike camouflage design that blends intricate depictions of foliage, branches, and bark with an abstract backdrop, ultimately breaking up the user's outline both at close range and from afar. Its muted color scheme of grays and browns makes this pattern suitable for year-round use in diverse woodland settings, particularly in environments typical of Central Europe.

Thinsulate is a high-tech insulating material from 3M with a special construction based on synthetic microfibers that provide high thermal insulation at a low weight. Its lightweight, elasticity, and ability to retain heat even in humid conditions make it widely used in clothing and footwear. Thinsulate fibers are durable and abrasion-resistant, resulting in long-lasting durability.
Hipora is a high-quality, waterproof and breathable layer used in gloves, protective clothing and footwear. It is composed of a microporous structure that effectively blocks water penetration from the outside, while allowing moisture and perspiration to escape from the inside, keeping you comfortable and dry. Hipora® is often used in products designed for harsh weather conditions such as rain or snow, offering excellent moisture protection while maintaining the breathability of the material.
Padlock is a technology used in Mechanix gloves, based on hexagonal-shaped silicone elements with non-slip properties, designed to provide optimal grip. The silicone on the gripping side of the gloves improves control over the tools handled and objects carried, increasing user comfort and safety.
