I have another pair of these gloves. By another, I mean my 4th pair. I’ve been using them for the 2nd season already. For a dirt bike. And for a fast scooter. In short, they’re fantastic. I’m waiting for a sale :). Best regards.
Mechanix Wear M-Pact Tactical Leather Gloves
Highly resilient and multifunctional gloves crafted specifically for professional military personnel and special forces operatives. Mechanix Wear gloves are an excellent option for users who value hand protection that is lightweight, comfortable, and ensures a reliable grip.

Hand protection, D30 material, TPR plastic panels
Superior protection for the palm, metacarpus, fingers, and knuckles is ensured through the use of D3O® material combined with TPR panels (Thermal Plastic Rubber, meeting EN13594 standards). These materials offer excellent defense against abrasions and impacts from external sources. Segmenting the panels facilitates smooth finger movement and flexibility.

- 1: tear resistance (rated on a 0–4 scale)
- 1: puncture resistance (rated on a 0–4 scale)
- X: cut resistance – TDM test (ISO 13997) (measured from A–F)
- P: impact protection (requirement fulfilled)
Scales defined by the EN388 standard indicate the level of glove protection: a score of 0 signifies no protection, while 4 or 5 represent the highest resistance levels.
During TDM testing (ISO 13997), letters denote cut resistance, with A as the minimum protection and F as the maximum.
X designates an untested or non-applicable criterion, while P confirms compliance with impact protection requirements.

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.
TrekDry is a modern material characterized by high breathability. It effectively wicks moisture away from the surface of the skin, which helps to keep it dry and thermally comfortable during intense physical activity. It fits to the shape of the hand, ensuring freedom of movement and increasing precision during various activities.
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.
Durahide DRY is a technology that uses specially treated Durahide natural leather. The treatment makes the leather waterproof while maintaining high breathability and flexibility.

Review summary
These gloves receive very positive feedback for comfort, solid build quality, secure grip, and a close fit that still allows precise hand movement. Users especially value them for shooting, airsoft, workshop tasks, outdoor work, and everyday use, praising the protection on the back of the hand and fingers without sacrificing much dexterity. Many reviews also highlight good durability and touchscreen support, although phone use does not always work perfectly. The most common drawbacks are faster wear or tearing on the palm side, noticeable inner seams, fingers that may run slightly long, and protective rubber panels that can slightly reduce flexibility for some users.

Good gloves but they don't effectively protect the palms and against sharp objects/vegetation. But for shooting and working with sensitive tasks these are great.
-
The gloves are very sturdy and comfortable. They fit the hand well, provide excellent protection, and at the same time do not restrict finger movements. They work well both in the field and for technical tasks. The quality of workmanship is very high.

In May this year, I also bought new MPact 1 gloves in black. They are exactly what I needed. I plan to use them together with my new service uniform.
-
I am satisfied with the purchase. I used them at the shooting range, for handling a camera, for grabbing chains in the mountains, and as summer gloves on a motorcycle. They performed well everywhere. Very comfortable, good grip, and great protection for the back of the hand. You can easily pick up a BB pellet and load it into a magazine or operate a phone with them.
-
The gloves themselves are very comfortable, the back is excellent, but the front was full of holes after less than a month and the gloves weren't used in tough conditions. You could say the front will last maybe not even a whole summer. Overall, they're good, just the front could be better.
-
The best gloves I've had so far, they protect the outer part of the hand perfectly and offer really good grip on any surface while protecting the hand. The thinner version offers truly good sensitivity on the inner side—I would buy them again. I recommend.
-
Excellent gloves. Perfectly suited for use with weapons. The finish and craftsmanship are outstanding. I recommend them to anyone who is considering or looking for the perfect gift.
-
Well-made Mechanix gloves. Intense black color. They are really durable. They look good, and while shooting you barely feel them. Hands don’t get sweaty in them quickly.
-
I previously had the version without protectors, original leather. These are identical, but much bulkier (on the outside). It's hard to put them in a pocket or fold them, but it's a trade-off. You get finger protection (except the index), which really absorbs and protects well, it's good soft rubber, also very anatomically designed, you have no trouble moving your fingers, as if it wasn't there at all. Sizing is the same as other Mechanix gloves. Using a phone is possible, but very cumbersome. They have a better grip than other Mechanix gloves because here you have leather—not natural, I think, but still strong. I recommend them, I use them like a second skin.
-
Well made for a good price. They perform well at shooting ranges and training grounds. With the gloves on, you can feel the weapon's trigger well. Overall, I recommend them.
-
I use gloves from this company again and I'm satisfied once more. Very durable, comfortable, and well-fitted, which allows for more precise work.
