Review on Tactical Touch Screen Gloves for Men - Enhanced Grip for Shooting, Hunting, and Airsoft by Brock Chisholm

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Could be better with better quality control

I was looking for a good pair of gloves for shooting and airsoft games so I decided to give it a try. I really like the look of these gloves and love that the thumb, index and middle fingers are touchscreen compatible. The fabric feels really comfortable and I was surprised to find that I can still feel objects through the gloves without feeling too thin. I was also happy to see a little extra padding on the knuckles which would come in handy for airsoft games. The fingers seem to articulate very well and don't feel stiff like some other gloves. Unfortunately, these gloves also have some noticeable problems. The first thing I noticed was that the left glove is a bit tighter than the right one. It can still be used but is a little denser. Second: thumbs up! There is half an inch more room in the thumbs. I've seen a few gloves with thumbs that are too long, but these are the longest of them all. Luckily I was able to turn them over and sew on a new strip about 1/2 inch below my thumb and then trim off the excess material and now they fit a lot better! It would also be much better if the thumbs were made from the same material as the rest of the glove rather than the thick, fluffy material used on the top of the thumb. Finally, I noticed that the pinker fingers were much tighter than the other fingers. The pinky on the left hand is actually quite narrow, which I think restricts blood flow a bit (and I have thin fingers). I noticed that my left pinky finger always got cold while wearing them outside (due to lack of circulation) but none of my other fingers were cold. The index, middle and ring fingers match perfectly. I can try putting something in my little fingers to stretch them and loosen them up a bit. Overall I like the comfort of the fabric and the way the gloves fit on the index, middle and ring fingers, but there were some very obvious quality control issues on the thumb and pinky. I believe if I had bought a different pair of gloves they would fit slightly differently as the left and right gloves in this pair were very different. If they improved the quality control of these gloves and made sure the pinky and thumb were properly fitted, I would buy these gloves again and again for the comfort of the fabric and the touchscreen fabric feature on the thumb, index and middle finger. But in their current state, I wouldn't recommend buying them unless you're willing to sew something on to shorten your thumbs and risk over-tightening your pinky fingers.

Pros
