Mechanix Wear FastFit Core 3 Tactical Gloves - Covert Black

Universal durable gloves crafted to offer basic mechanical protection. Their snug fit ensures complete grip control without restricting precise movements. Perfect for law enforcement officers, military personnel, shooting sports enthusiasts, as well as for survival trips, auto repair tasks, DIY activities, and airsoft matches.

Breathable CoolPlus fabric, Rip-Stop weave, touchscreen compatibility, Lock Ring technology

The upper section of the gloves is crafted from breathable, lightweight CoolPlus fabric, effectively minimizing hand perspiration and ensuring optimal ventilation. The back of the fingers features Rip-Stop material, which resists tearing and fraying even when locally damaged, offering enhanced abrasion resistance. The grip area utilizes durable 0.6 mm thick synthetic leather, providing a strong grip and control, while allowing the use of touchscreen devices without needing to remove the gloves. The Lock Ring panel safeguards the critical area around the thumb, enhancing the durability of the construction and reducing seam damage.

Cuff with drawstring, 2-piece palm construction

A wide cuff equipped with a drawstring offers enhanced protection and ensures the gloves stay firmly on the wrist. The opening is quite spacious, facilitating easy putting on. The 2-piece inner palm design minimizes curling and gathering, enhancing the gloves' fit. The lower palm section includes ventilated padding, which boosts air circulation and guards against injuries.

ANSI/ISEA 105-3XX and EN388-2121X standards

The gloves meet the American safety standard ANSI/ISEA 105 level 3XX in terms of cut, abrasion, and puncture resistance, which means:

  • 3: abrasion resistance (on a scale from 1 to 6)
  • X: cut resistance (on a scale from A1 to A9)
  • X: puncture resistance (on a scale from 0 to 5)

The gloves meet the safety standard EN388 level 2121X in terms of mechanical performance, which means:

  • 2: abrasion resistance (on a scale from 0 to 4)
  • 1: cut resistance (on a scale from 0 to 5)
  • 2: tear resistance (on a scale from 0 to 4)
  • 1: puncture resistance (on a scale from 0 to 4)
  • X: cut resistance - TDM test (ISO 13997) (on a scale A-F)

In the ANSI/ISEA 105 standard, abrasion resistance is rated on a scale from 1 to 6 and refers to the number of cycles the material can withstand before wearing out. Cut resistance is classified on a scale from A1 to A9 (from the lowest to the highest level of protection). Puncture resistance is rated on a scale from 0 to 5 and indicates the force required to puncture the glove surface with a sharp spike (not applicable to needle punctures).

The scales provided in the EN388 standard indicate the level of protection of the gloves: a value of 0 means no protection, while the highest values (4, 5) indicate the maximum level of resistance.

In the TDM test method (ISO 13997), letter designations are used, where A represents the lowest level of protection and F the highest.

The X designation means that the given parameter was not tested or is not applicable.

Rip-Stop feature
Rip-Stop

Rip-Stop weave protects the fabric from abrasions and tears. It is characterized by additional threads woven in at regular intervals, forming a mesh-like pattern. It provides high strength to the fabric, increases resistance to mechanical damage, especially tears.

CoolPlus feature
CoolPlus
CoolPlus is a technology used in gloves designed for high-temperature work. It involves the use of breathable mesh fabric that effectively wicks away heat and moisture. It provides better ventilation and increases wearing comfort during intense exertion. This solution works well in environments with higher temperatures and humidity.
Lock Ring feature
Lock Ring
Lock Ring is a technology that reinforces the thumb area of the gloves through a welded panel without seams. It increases resistance to abrasion and mechanical damage. Elimination of seams reduces the risk of tearing in sensitive areas. As a result, the gloves are more durable and perform better in harsh working conditions.

Review summary

Automatically prepared based on reviews

Mechanix FastFit gloves are most often praised for their comfort, lightweight feel, and secure fit, making them well suited to everyday use, shooting, outdoor activities, bushcraft, cycling, and light workshop or garden tasks. Users value the reliable grip, good dexterity, easy pull-on design with the elastic cuff, and touchscreen compatibility. They are widely seen as offering strong value for money, especially when discounted, though sizing needs careful attention because this model can fit narrower or differently than other Mechanix gloves. The most common drawbacks are that they absorb water quickly, are less suitable for heavy-duty work, can show wear or seam issues under intensive use, and provide limited protection from heat and fire. Overall, they are a solid choice for buyers who want comfortable, versatile gloves for light to medium tasks rather than maximum protection.

    Size: S

    The gloves are lightweight and flexible, without feeling like bulky protective gear, which makes them well suited for outdoor activities. The elastic cuff keeps them securely on the wrist, and the synthetic leather on the inside of the palm provides a reliable grip. You can also use a touchscreen without any problems. It is worth choosing the right size in a physical store.

    In the category of tactical gloves, the FastFit by Mechanix is already a classic choice. They don’t have unnecessary reinforcements or protectors – they’re simply solid gloves. Inside, there’s synthetic leather, and the outside features a breathable material, which makes them perfect for summer. They fit well, so compared to wider models like M-Pact or Original, I recommend those with larger hands consider a bigger size.

    These gloves work great for trips and during ASG games. They also provide good hand ventilation. For this price, they are made from solid materials, so I definitely recommend them.

    Outstanding gloves! The leather material ensures excellent grip and great durability, while the FastFit design allows you to put them on quickly. They are very comfortable, fit the hand perfectly, and do not reduce tactile sensitivity. This is truly an excellent choice!

    For this price, they are really very good. Time will tell how they hold up with longer use and whether I will lose them quickly, as used to happen with most of my gloves. A big advantage is also the comfort, because they fit the hand really well.

    These are lightweight gloves, great for summer and very well suited for shooting. For heavier tasks, such as working with rough wood, they perform only average, because the material wears out fairly quickly. They fit well on the hand, and if you have doubts about the size, with the Fastfit model it is worth choosing the larger one.

    These are good gloves — if the size is chosen correctly, you can hardly feel that you’re wearing them on your hands. Compared with the M Pact line, they are much more comfortable for everyday use.

    Size: XXL

    These are basic gloves available at an attractive price. Compared with the older version of this model that I use, they are more comfortable, although I liked the previous edition better in terms of appearance.

    Size: XL

    I find this glove model to be a great choice for outdoor activities. I use them for single or multi-day mountain hikes, especially on rugged terrain where a fall could result in hand injuries. They also provide protection when handling ropes, firewood, or rocks. Furthermore, they offer moderate insulation against the cold without becoming uncomfortably hot in the middle of summer. Mechanix has a solid reputation for quality, and this is evident in the construction of these gloves. The material used on the palms and fingers ensures a secure grip and allows for touchscreen use. They are lightweight and flexible, making them easy to stow in almost any pocket. The elastic cuff keeps them securely in place on the wrist, although I would have preferred a velcro strap for a more adjustable fit. They feature a loop that allows them to be hung from a carabiner or ring. At the sale price of €9.30, I think they are hard to beat. Regarding sizing, I normally wear a size 9 in work and household cleaning gloves; for these Mechanix gloves, I chose XL, and they fit well, albeit a bit snugly.

    Very good gloves — they are comfortable and fit well, although it is worth choosing the size carefully, preferably by comparing several pairs, because they may differ slightly. Additionally, they work flawlessly with touchscreens.

    Size: L

    I needed gloves in a matching color for Multicam Black clothing/gear. Since we already have several pairs of Mechanix gloves, there was never really any question about what I’d choose. The size fits too, and they were not uncomfortable to wear even in very hot weather.

    I bought the "Mechanix Wear FastFit - MultiCam Tactical Gloves". Comfortable and practical. I’m thinking of getting another pair in a different color. I’m satisfied with the product. They arrived in 5 days. I recommend buying them.

    These are basic Mechanix gloves that perform great for any hard work at the shooting range and in the field. However, you have to keep one drawback in mind — they soak up water very quickly, and just a moment of contact with a wet surface is enough for them to get soaked right away.

    Size: S

    The gloves are well made, suitable for both off-road riding and cycling – they provide good protection against cold in spring and autumn. The size is appropriate, although to be really comfortable, they needed to break in for a few days.

    Size: M

    You can not go wrong with Mechanix gloves. These are not my first pair. My first lasted years of medium use. The durability is good, fit is good too, they are comfortable to wear. Especially for the price you get a good dependable product, available in plenty of colors. Since these are often sold at discounted prices on the Military site, they are really a no brainer.
