After losing the first pair, I ordered again. They have practically no flaws, maybe just the cut resistance, which according to the description is low. However, I haven't tested them in this regard. Good for everything, durable, they don't get damaged.
Mechanix Wear Original Core 3 Tactical Gloves - Coyote
Universal robust gloves crafted to deliver essential mechanical protection. When properly fitted, they ensure optimal grip control without restricting the dexterity needed for meticulous tasks. Ideal for use by law enforcement, military personnel, shooting sports practitioners, and highly functional during survival activities, automotive workshop operations, DIY projects, or airsoft skirmishes.
Breathable CoolPlus material, touchscreen operation, Lock Ring technology
The upper section of the gloves utilizes lightweight, breathable CoolPlus fabric, effectively minimizing hand perspiration and ensuring exceptional airflow. A single-piece design limits seam quantity, boosting overall glove longevity, while the robust mesh fabric is engineered to resist tearing and snagging. On the palm side, reinforced 0.8 mm synthetic leather delivers a secure grip and heightened tactile feedback, enabling seamless touchscreen device operation without glove removal. Reinforcement with a Lock Ring panel safeguards the crucial thumb area, enhancing structural integrity and minimizing seam vulnerability.
Strong adjustable TPR closure, Freedom-Flex cuff, 2-piece palm construction
A TPR strap (Thermoplastic Rubber - compliant with EN 13594) with a velcro closure secures the cuff. The internally divided palm with a two-piece construction and integrated Freedom-Flex cuff minimize material bunching, optimizing glove fit and ensuring unrestricted movement. The lower palm area includes ventilated padding to enhance airflow and provide added protection against impact.
ANSI/ISEA 105-3XX and EN388-2121X
The gloves are constructed to comply with the American protective standard ANSI/ISEA 105 at level 3XX, offering rated defense against cutting, abrasion, and puncture hazards, defined as:
- 3: level of abrasion resistance (rated from 1 to 6)
- X: cut resistance rating (rated from A1 to A9)
- X: puncture resistance rating (rated from 0 to 5)
Protection levels also align with EN388 at level 2121X, providing mechanical risk resistance, where:
- 2: abrasion resistance (scale 0–4)
- 1: cut resistance (scale 0–5)
- 2: tear resistance (scale 0–4)
- 1: puncture resistance (scale 0–4)
- X: cut resistance by TDM test (ISO 13997) (rated A–F)
Within the ANSI/ISEA 105 standard, abrasion resistance is evaluated from 1 to 6, representing how many cycles the material endures before abrasion. Cut resistance ranges from A1 to A9, progressing from minimum to maximum protection. Puncture resistance is determined on a scale from 0 to 5, showing the required force to puncture the glove with a sharp object (except for needle punctures).
Specified values in the EN388 standard demonstrate the glove's protective rating: 0 means no protection, while values at 4 or 5 reflect the greatest resistance achievable.
Under TDM testing (ISO 13997), alphabetical ratings are employed, where A signifies minimum protection and F corresponds to maximum protection.
X markings denote parameters that are either untested or inapplicable.

Gloves selected according to the provided sizing chart. They are a bit too tight, and at the same time the fingers are too long. But maybe they'll adapt somehow. The type of Velcro used will probably wear out rather quickly.
-
I think I already have 3 pairs of these gloves and they have never let me down. They are well made, fit nicely to the hand, and are comfortable to wear. They are breathable and dry very well after getting wet, and it's also very easy to keep working in them when they're wet.
-
Great gloves. They work well in the field. The size fits perfectly. With extreme and heavy use, they won't last long, but they are still worth recommending.
-
Very good gloves, you can immediately see their quality at first glance. They cost a bit, but it's not wasted money. They fit well on the hands, don't squeeze, and your hand doesn't sweat excessively. They are lightweight and have convenient loops for attaching to a backpack. I recommend them.
-
It's simply Mechanix. As usual, they have excellent quality, great stitching, they're very comfortable and fit perfectly if you choose the right size. Even during my service, they were my favorite choice.
-
Great gloves have already saved my fingers from mechanical damage, so they have fulfilled their role. I will have to buy a second pair, but it's definitely worth it.
-
The gloves are extremely comfortable and work well for many tasks – you can carry heavy stones, bricks, unload packages, as well as do gardening, fix cars, or use various tools. At first, size L seemed a bit stiff and tight, but after a few days, the leather adapted to my hands. They provide great protection, sensitivity is standard, only with very small nuts it's hard to tighten them without the risk of them slipping out of your hand. The biggest drawback is the factory glue – after just five days of work, the black patch between the thumb and index finger started to come off because there are no stitches on the edges there. I bought the gloves new and haven't had a chance to wash them yet. I had to glue everything myself so the patch wouldn't come off completely (the photo shows it already after my repair). When buying, I recommend looking at the product photos and choosing a model in which the black patch on the bend is securely stitched instead of just glued. This way, you can avoid these problems. At this price, such a gluing flaw is very unpleasant, and the quality control leaves much to be desired.

Great gloves, they fit my size perfectly and the velcro fasteners hold excellently. After 3 months of intensive use, they are in excellent condition.
-
Legendary and durable gloves in Coyote color. Synthetic leather provides excellent trigger feel, and TrekDry material protects the hand from overheating. Protection and comfort at the highest level!
-
They wear out quite quickly. The material used is thin, but I like the possibility of using them for more delicate motor tasks, even on touch screens. After trying several different models, Original seems to be the most versatile.
-
These gloves are an absolute classic and totally awesome for rough use in the field. They are super comfortable, fit perfectly on the hand, and the durable material provides great feel.
-
The gloves look very good, are solidly made, have pleasant-to-touch leather and an attractive cut, and are comfortable to wear – although the fingers seem a bit too long, but after all, these are work gloves. Everything looks great on the outside, and only their use will show their durability.
-
Solid workmanship and high-quality materials make the gloves fit well in the hand, look very good in person, and provide a secure grip and good feel for the weapon.
-
During shooting training, you can adjust the optics and operate the timer on the phone at the same time. They fit the hand well and wick away moisture. I recommend them!
