The gloves are solidly made and work well with touchscreens. Unfortunately, they seem to be quite roomy, because even in size XS I feel some looseness. It's worth trying them on before buying!
Mechanix Wear Original Core 3 Tactical Gloves - Wolf Grey
Versatile durable gloves designed to provide basic mechanical protection. Their optimal fit ensures full grip control, allowing for precise tasks without limitations. Ideal for law enforcement officers, military personnel, shooting sports enthusiasts, as well as during survival expeditions, working in automotive workshops, DIY projects, and airsoft games.
Breathable CoolPlus material, touchscreen compatibility, Lock Ring technology
The top layer of the gloves is made from lightweight, breathable CoolPlus fabric that reduces perspiration and promotes air circulation. The construction made from a single piece of fabric minimizes the number of seams, resulting in greater durability. Additionally, the mesh material is tear and snag resistant. The inner part made of 0.8 mm synthetic leather ensures a firm grip and precise feel while allowing touchscreen use without removing the gloves. The wrapped Lock Ring panel reinforces the critical area around the thumb, enhancing glove durability, while reducing seams prone to damage.
Strong, adjustable TPR closure, Freedom-Flex cuff, 2-piece palm construction
The gloves are equipped with a robust closure made of TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber – thermoplastic rubber compliant with standard EN 13594), fastened with velcro. The two-piece interior palm construction and stitched Freedom-Flex cuff prevent material bunching and ensure an excellent fit and freedom of movement. Additional ventilated lining in the lower part of the palm improves airflow and provides injury protection.
norm: ANSI/ISEA 105-3XX and EN388-2121X
The gloves meet the American protective standard ANSI/ISEA 105 at level 3XX in terms of resistance to cutting, abrasion, and puncture, 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 protective standard EN388 at level 2121X in terms of resistance to mechanical risks, which means:
- 2: 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)
- 1: puncture resistance (on a scale of 0–4)
- X: cut resistance – TDM test (ISO 13997) (on a scale of 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 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 puncture the glove surface with a sharp probe (does not apply to needle puncture).
The scales specified in the EN388 standard 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.
When testing using the TDM method (ISO 13997), letter markings are used, where A indicates the lowest level of protection and F the highest.
The X marking indicates that the given parameter was not tested or is not applicable.

These tactical gloves are probably some of the best in their class. They are very durable and well-made. I definitely recommend them to everyone, especially for shooting – they fit perfectly on your hands and don’t slip off. My only complaint is that I received a different color than I ordered, but other than that, everything is fine.
-
I keep coming back to Mechanix gloves, even after trying other brands. They work great for work, at the shooting range, and in the workshop. The affordable price is a big plus for me. The sizes are well-fitted. I definitely recommend them.
-
The gloves work well for light tasks. They provide a good fit if the right size is chosen. Perfect for use at the shooting range and when handling firearms. The price is exceptionally attractive.
-
Decent, basic gloves. This isn't the highest model from Mechanix, but they work well. They are lightweight, comfortable, and allow for precise work where dexterity matters.
-
I wear them as work gloves every day - for tools, small tasks, sometimes at the shooting range. What I like most is that they provide good finger "feel": you can pick up small things, tighten something, unlock your phone - and you don't have to take the gloves off every 5 minutes. They fit snugly but aren't tight, and hand movement is free. The downsides are simple: these aren't gloves for heavy protection, the knuckles are not covered like in the M-Pact models, so if you often hit against metal or carry heavy objects, it's better to choose something with reinforced tops. Also, if you get the wrong size, they may either rub or "float" on your hand, so size is critical. Overall, a very good base option: lightweight, comfortable, and really versatile.
-
As usual, Mechanix provides the highest quality. The gloves are very comfortable, fit the hand perfectly, and grip surfaces well. Their solid construction makes them perfect both at the shooting range and for outdoor work. I highly recommend them.
-
I bought Mechanix Wear Original Coyote gloves, expecting the proven quality of a classic, but I have to admit I was a bit disappointed. At first, they are comfortable and fit well, but after extended use, some flaws began to appear. Especially durability isn't what I expected, although it’s not the worst.
-
Purchasing Mechanix Wear Original gloves in wz.93 Pantera PL Woodland camouflage turned out to be one of the best decisions for my tactical and outdoor equipment. From the very beginning of use, I noticed that the gloves fit the hand perfectly and do not restrict movement, even during prolonged wear or outdoor activities. The TrekDry® material provides proper ventilation, so the hands stay dry even during intense effort, while the synthetic leather guarantees a secure grip on tools and equipment.
-
The Mechanix gloves are very well made. Size L is perfect, they're neither too big nor too small. They fit the hand very well. Your hand doesn’t sweat, even when worn for a long time. Handling weapons and switches goes smoothly. I can definitely recommend them.
-
Great gloves, this is already my next pair from this company. Well made, they fit perfectly on my hand. I use them both every day, and also on trips to the forest or for work. I can honestly recommend them.
-
The gloves are made from a very pleasant-to-the-touch material. So far, I have used them quite intensively several times and have not noticed any signs of wear, so I hope this will remain the case for a long time. As for the purchase process itself, everything went quickly and smoothly as always.
-
I decided to purchase because of the promotion. The gloves are comfortable for everyday use thanks to excellent protection and ergonomics – they absorb vibrations very well and are highly resistant to abrasion.
-
Great as versatile gloves – they work well at home, in the garage, and on off-road trips, providing good protection and wearing comfort. Mechanix really meets expectations.
-
These gloves have strong protection on the fingers and knuckles, which makes me feel safe during demanding tasks or when I'm outside – they work well both for work and outdoor activities.
