 Great glove, but not for hard repetitive work. Jan 01, 2010
By R. Painter
"Hellfish777"
I bought these gloves about a weekago. I work in a garage that specializes in tire installations etc...I thought these would be perfect. They fit great. I could type wearing them...lugnuts were no problem. The problem is they wore away on the fingers where i grip things. I'm very surprised the rest of the glove looks brand new. I tried the other mechanix gloves with the padded palms but those are just slightly too bulky, which is unfortunate. Imight try these again but im very leery about them wearing away again.. I might just cut away the fingers, but that seems like a waste to me. Oh well I suppose these gloves would be excellent for things such as raking, maybe gardening, or maybe engine work. But my overall impression it's a very good fitting, tight, workable glove, just don't work them too hard!

 Excellent for working/shooting Mar 19, 2010
By Jason S. Foist
"Artistic14"
I actually first got a used pair of Mechanix gloves from my neighbor that he had laying around his garage... tried them and even with holes worn into the fingers in a few places I liked the fit and the velcro closure. Wanted a "pure" black pair for use when I go camping and shooting - just a good idea for saving those fleshy grippy things at the end of each arm from cuts, scrapes, pinches, etc. In fact, I patched up the original pair when my neighbor didn't want them back & those are still working great around the house here!
These Large Stealth (remember that the last 3 digits are the size - so 009 is Medium, 010 is Large, 011 is X-Large, etc.) fit great (see below). I am a little leery of the "thinner" velcro (doesn't look like the traditional velcro we've all come to know & love...) but so far it's holding & working great. If they had the "normal" velcro, I probably would've bumped up to all five stars. Now to order & try a tan pair and maybe a cold-weather pair too.
For some additional detail on the fit - these almost feel like a 2nd skin. I can pick up nickles & quarters with my fingertips in these - and that just doesn't happen with a lot of gloves out there. Can't pick up dimes though. I can break branches or change mags in my Ruger 10/22 by touch and still have excellent protection for my digits, knuckles, and the rest of my hand. Get them - for the price, they have good durability and excellent fit & feel.

Great set of gloves and I would highly recommend Sep 23, 2010
By J. Dang
I originally heard about these gloves from a guy called, "nutnfancy" (guy that does a lot of knife and firearms review on youtube). I have to say that these gloves were one of my best purchases - so good that I ended up buying 2 sets for myself and a few as gifts to friends and family! I keep one set of gloves in my range bag and another set in my car for winter driving.
Pros:
They fit very well and almost feel like a second layer of skin
Provide great tactile feel - very important when working with firearms
Have great build quality and construction - the stitching is superb
Well priced
Great placement of the velcro strap
At this time, I cannot think of any cons about this product. Simply put, these gloves simply work! If you're interested in a video review, I suggest you youtube these gloves and look for the review by nutnfancy.
[UPDATE Feb 8th, 2011]
My opinion of these gloves have not changed. I just wanted to update the review to reflect something that I think is important. I wear these gloves to drive during the winter time. What I came to find out was that the fabric on the palm will wear away at a leather steering wheel. The fabric used on the palm of the glove does not feel like it is abrassive but it will eventually wear on the leather. I'm glad I found this out sooner than later before the wear got much worse.

One of the best protective gloves you can buy Jul 15, 2010
By Charlie
I've used Mechanix Original gloves for years, and have also bought less expensive clones from various hardware stores. The Mechanix Original gloves are made the best in terms of fit and overall quality. However, in terms of durability it is all about the same and I have to explain this. First off, the palm and finger surfaces are made of some nylon/polyurethane material that is highly resilient against abrasion and wear. The weakest link is the fake suede material on the sides of the fingers. This material first starts to pelt up and eventually wears into large holes. This is accelerated when you wash the gloves. Make sure you to wash it in COLD water only, and do not put it in the dryer.
The bulk of the glove is made of synthetic materials: polyurethane, nylon, spandex, etc... Although they don't have fancy knuckle protectors, I found these are more than adequate for protection. The M-Pact gloves are unnecessarily bulky and the knuckle protectors actually hurt my knuckles!
The less expensive Mechanix clone gloves last about as long as the Mechanix gloves at half the price. The only major difference is the overall fit and quality, and the Mechanix name. I make sure to wear the Mechanix gloves when working in the shop area with other mechanics, engineers, etc... but I use the clone gloves when I go shooting or when I work on my own vehicles because I put a lot of wear/tear and abuse on the gloves at home.
The best selling point of Mechanix gloves is how they feel like part of your hand when you wear them. You can pick up small objects with the greatest of ease, and it never feels cumbersome. The M-Pact gloves and other variants of Mechanix all feel bulky and thick. Just make sure not to use the Mechanix gloves around fire because they are not flame retardant.
Pros: Stylish, the brand is easily recognized, good quality and fit, excellent dexterity with good protection, affordable, easy to clean
Cons: Needs to be improved in some areas like the suede material on the sides of the fingers, and more reinforcement on the index and middle finger surfaces due to wear
Overall: 4/5 stars - not 5 only because a lot of clone gloves are just as good if you can look past minor quality deviations and the lack of the Mechanix brand
