The gloves are very professional. I use them for modern shooting and tactical exercises, which makes my hands better protected. The inner side made of leather stands out for its high quality, and the external rubber inserts effectively protect against impacts. The price is quite high, but appropriate for the quality of the product. I definitely recommend them!
Mechanix Wear M-Pact Core 3 Covert Tactical Gloves - Black
Tactical gloves in black, designed for basic mechanical protection of the hands. Thanks to their snug fit, they ensure full grip control and allow for precise movements. They are ideal for law enforcement officers, military personnel, shooting sports enthusiasts, as well as for survival expeditions, car repair work, DIY projects, and airsoft games.
Synthetic leather, Rip-Stop weave, touchscreen compatible
The gloves are made of plastic and synthetic leather, which ensures a stable grip in all conditions. The upper part of the gloves is made of waterproof Rip-Stop fabric, which prevents the fabric from tearing and fraying even after local damage and provides increased abrasion resistance. The cuff is fastened with Velcro, allowing for individual adjustment. The durable 0.8 mm thick synthetic leather used for the grip area ensures a strong grip and control, as well as allowing operation of touchscreen devices without removing the gloves. The Lock Ring panel protects the critical area around the thumb, increasing the durability of the construction and reducing damage-prone seams. Ribbed panels on the index finger and thumb increase the durability of these areas and improve grip precision.
TPR panels, shock-absorbing inserts, AirHammer padding
The outer layer of the gloves features durable panels made of TPR (Thermal Plastic Rubber - thermoplastic rubber compliant with EN 13594) that protect against abrasion and impact of the hand against external elements - ideal for use in buildings and CQB conditions. The panels are divided into segments for easy finger bending. The underside of the gloves is equipped with D3O inserts that absorb impact energy and vibrations in the metacarpal area. Additional AirHammer padding increases protection on the sides of the hand.
ANSI/ISEA 105-3XX and EN388-2121XP standards
The gloves meet the American protective standard ANSI/ISEA 105 at level 3XX in terms of cut, abrasion, and puncture resistance, which means:
- 3: abrasion resistance (scale from 1 to 6)
- X: cut resistance (scale from A1 to A9)
- X: puncture resistance (scale from 0 to 5)
The gloves meet the protective standard EN388 at level 2121XP for mechanical hazard resistance, which means:
- 2: abrasion resistance (scale 0–4)
- 1: blade 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)
- P: impact protection (test passed)
In the ANSI/ISEA 105 standard, abrasion resistance is rated on a scale from 1 to 6 and refers to the number of cycles a 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 pierce the glove surface with a sharp probe (not applicable to needle punctures).
The scales defined in the EN388 standard indicate the level of glove protection: a value of 0 means no protection, while the highest values (4, 5) indicate the maximum resistance level.
In the TDM test method (ISO 13997), letter designations are used, where A represents the lowest level of protection and F the highest.
The symbol X indicates that the parameter was not tested or is not applicable. The symbol P indicates that the glove meets the requirements for impact protection.

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.
TPR, or thermoplastic rubbeTPR, or thermoplastic rubber, is a material that combines the properties of rubber and plastic. It is flexible and durable, and is often used in the manufacture of tool handles, gaskets, footwear, and many other products, as it provides comfort, good grip and wear resistance.r, is a type of synthetic material that combines the properties of rubber and plastic. TPR is characterized by its flexibility and abrasion resistance.
D3O is a modern material with intelligent molecules that move freely during normal use. However, at the moment of impact, they fuse together, absorbing and dispersing energy, then rapidly return to an elastic state. As a result, the material effectively reduces vibration, protects hands from injury and reduces hand strain while working.

These are some of the best gloves available in terms of hand protection. The protectors on the fingers and knuckles are solid yet do not limit freedom of movement. The Panther camouflage variant (wz.93) will definitely appeal to those who like Polish uniforms – the pattern is faithfully reproduced and of very high quality. The gloves provide an excellent grip and precise weapon feel, which is very important during tactical operations.

Size: M
Very good gloves, like most models from the Mechanix brand. An additional layer of material in the central part of the palm clearly increases their durability. The rubber reinforcements on the fingers and knuckles absorb impacts very well.
-
Size: M
Mechanix M-Pact are a classic and they didn’t disappoint in this version either. The rubber protectors on the knuckles and fingers absorb impacts very well, while the gloves still allow full movement and retain good fingertip sensitivity. The MultiCam pattern looks great. They fit exactly according to the size chart.

Size: M
These are already my second gloves from this brand. I got the size just right, so they fit my hand very well. Big plus for the protection on the back of the hand – for rubber gloves, it works really well. The inside also raises no objections.

The Mechanix Wear M-Pact Core 3 gloves in Olive Drab are solidly made and work well for tasks requiring hand protection. The reinforcements effectively protect the knuckles and fingers, while the gloves do not excessively limit freedom of movement. The material is durable, the grip is secure, and the adjustable closure allows for a good fit around the wrist. The color looks very good and matches outdoor and tactical gear. A good choice for work, the shooting range, outdoors, or DIY projects. I definitely recommend them.

Functional and reliable gloves for jobs where your hands need proper protection from impacts. Flexible TPR rubber protectors on the back of the hand and fingers absorb impacts and provide complete protection for your knuckles. High-quality D3O® padding on the palm absorbs vibrations and impacts, reducing hand fatigue when operating machinery, for example. The synthetic leather allows for smooth use of your phone without having to take off the gloves. A comfortable material that keeps your hands cool and dry even during long sessions. These gloves are best suited for mild and dry transitional weather. Highly recommended!

Very good gloves. I use them for work in demanding conditions, they provide very good hand protection and are very comfortable. The Olive Drab version looks very good.
-
Mechanix has already accustomed us to the variety of their gloves – each pair is comfortable, allows you to use touchscreens, and is well-priced. I really recommend this particular model.
-
I am very satisfied with the M-pacts. Although I don't use them for shooting, but for cycling. They have already protected my hands several times, and the impact-absorbing panels do not make everyday use difficult at all.
-
The gloves are carefully made and comfortable to wear. They provide an excellent grip, which is very important for tactical operations.
-
I have the original gloves of the same brand and while they are excellent they don’t really do much to protect your fingers if you use them while playing airsoft so I purchased these and they have worked really well at protecting my hands from BB impacts. I was also worried about the moulded bits getting in the way of the trigger guard but that’s not been a problem. Sizing is great also and the size I ordered after measuring my hand fit perfectly.
-
Very comfortable to wear. Not too thick, not too thin. The knuckles and finger joints are also well protected against airsoft hits. The only thing that personally bothers me is the size. I have somewhat thicker fingers (a cozier build), and while size L fits like a glove, the finger length... there's about a centimeter that's too long on the glove. Maybe it would have been better to offer one or two in-between sizes. Would buy again!

When it comes to hand protection, especially for the back of your hands, these gloves work great. I tested them, and the rubber inserts do an excellent job absorbing shocks. The inside is additionally reinforced. I recommend them for tasks that require specialized equipment.
-
I am quite satisfied with the Mpact Mechanix gloves. They fit well, provide good grip, and the rubber protects my fingers from painful airsoft hits. The only drawback is that the index finger and thumb should also be protected with plastic, but that would probably restrict freedom of movement.
