The gloves are very comfortable for everyday use – they're light, fit the hand well, and are easy to put on thanks to the elastic cuff. The materials are a plus, providing a secure grip and allowing for precise work, even on a phone without taking them off. They work well both at the shooting range, in the field, and during garage work. It's important to remember that they're better suited for light work – they may wear out more quickly during heavy-duty tasks. For this price, however, they are a really cost-effective option and can be easily recommended.
Mechanix FastFit Tactical Gloves - MultiCam
Versatile heavy-duty gloves designed to provide basic mechanical protection. Their optimal fit guarantees full grip control, allowing you to perform precise tasks without restriction. Ideal for uniformed service officers, military personnel, shooting sports enthusiasts, as well as during survival expeditions, auto repair shop work, DIY and ASG games.
Breathable TrekDry form-fitting material, touchscreen support
The upper part of the gloves is made of a light, breathable Form-fitting TrekDry material that effectively reduces hand sweating. The grip part is made of durable synthetic leather, ensuring a firm grip and excellent feel, also allowing operation of touch screens without having to take off the gloves. The thumb and index finger are additionally reinforced with a layer of material for greater durability.
Cuff with ribbing
A wide cuff equipped with ribbing guarantees additional protection and a stable fit of the glove on the wrist. The generous entrance allows you to put on the glove easily and quickly.
EN388-2131X protection standard
The gloves meet the protective standard EN388-2121X for mechanical resistance, which means:
- 2: abrasion resistance (scale 0-4)
- 1: cut resistance (scale 0-5)
- 2: tear resistance (scale 0-4)
- 1: puncture resistance (scale 0-4)
- X: cut resistance - TDM test (ISO 13997) (scale A-F)
The scales given in the EN388 standard define the level of protection of the gloves: the value 0 means no protection, while the highest values (4, 5) indicate the maximum level of resistance.
In TDM (ISO 13997) testing, letter designations are used, where A indicates the lowest protection, and F the highest.
The designation X informs that the parameter was not tested or is not applicable.

Camouflage MultiCam
MultiCam is a state-of-the-art camouflage pattern developed in 2002 by US company Crye Precision in cooperation with the United States Army Soldier Systems Center (Natick Labs) as part of the Objective Force Warrior program. Its goal was to create a versatile camouflage pattern that is effective in varied terrain and changing environmental conditions. The MultiCam pattern consists of seven colors, creating gradient transitions between shades of green, brown and beige. As a result, it dynamically adapts to the background, adopting shades of green in forested areas or browns and beiges in desert regions - in Central and Eastern European environments, it works particularly well in autumn and among dry vegetation. MultiCam has gained worldwide recognition and is used by numerous armed forces and special units. In 2010, the camouflage was officially adopted by the US Army as the camouflage pattern for soldiers stationed in Afghanistan, replacing the earlier Universal Camouflage Pattern (UCP). The pattern is also available to civilian users, making it a popular choice among military or airsoft enthusiasts.

Apart from getting the wrong colour and the updated version they're a solid choice for a basic glove. I don't mind the darker brown rather than coyote but it was a surprise. I've used FastFit as my "go too glove" for many years and they usually wear out in a season (bushcrafting/hiking/dog sports). Fair prize for a fair product.
-
The gloves are comfortable and fit quite well on the hands. As for durability, it all depends on our expectations. They're great for the shooting range, but I wouldn't choose them for service because they're too thin and prone to puncture. However, the price is also very affordable.
-
These gloves work great during bushcraft or similar activities, mainly thanks to the durable artificial leather on the inner side. However, it's a pity that real leather was not used. The outer material does not provide good ventilation, even on hot days, and does not protect against sparking or similar hazards. However, they fit the hand very well and are comfortable to wear.
-
Very nice, lightweight glove. I use a total of five pairs in different colors and am very satisfied with each one. They fit very well and are meaningfully compatible with touch displays. For harsh winters, they are rather unsuitable, but otherwise, they are really great gloves with an excellent price-performance ratio.
-
Mechanix is synonymous with high quality – the company produces solid, durable gloves that work great both at the shooting range and during tactical operations. The material is resistant and dries quickly. I highly recommend them.
-
These are my first gloves, but I am somewhat disappointed; they don't fit perfectly even though the size is correct. The absence of velcro is also a letdown, and it feels like they might slip off. I think they won't last long.
-
They look great, and are very easy to put on and take off. However, I don't recommend them for heavier tasks. I used them for about a month and a half while working on furniture delivery, and unfortunately holes appeared in five fingers. I recommend them rather for lighter duties.
-
The shoes fit perfectly to the foot, the color matches my expectations, and kept in a fanny pack they work perfectly as part of my gear. At this promotional price, they are definitely worth buying. I highly recommend this model.
-
Putting on and taking off these shoes is extremely easy. The quality of the materials and craftsmanship immediately impresses and inspires confidence. I already own other shoes from this brand, but I tried the FastFit model for the first time, and from now on I will only buy this version because they are exceptionally comfortable.
-
In my opinion, these gloves work great for basic tasks at a forest campsite, provide a bit of warmth in winter, and their material allows you to use a touchscreen with any finger, not just the thumb and index finger — though typing in them is rather out of the question.
-
Mechanix Wear FastFit in Olive Drab are comfortable, fairly thin gloves. They provide a good grip, but I wouldn't choose them for handling firearms.
-
For the first time, I decided to buy Mechanix gloves (previously, I read opinions about their durability-to-price ratio), choosing them along with the Original model. Interestingly, although they are thinner than the Original, they performed better at protecting my hands from the cold while walking my dog at -5°C.
-
This is already the third pair of gloves of this type that I have bought. They work great for moderate outdoor activities, such as walking the dog or hiking in the forest. I definitely recommend them!
-
Great gloves. This is already my second purchase of this pair. The weapon stays stable in them, yet they allow for precise actions. Of course, nothing replaces bare hands, but where hand protection is necessary, these gloves are worth their price. I definitely recommend them!
