Ideal for use by law enforcement, military operators, shooting sports enthusiasts, as well as during survival adventures, auto repair work, DIY projects, or ASG activities.

The upper section of the gloves features breathable and lightweight Form-fitting TrekDry fabric, effectively minimizing hand sweat. For enhanced grip and tactile feedback, the palm area is crafted from robust synthetic leather and enables the operation of touchscreen devices without the need to remove the gloves. Both the thumb and index finger are strengthened with an additional material layer.

The cuff secures via a TPR strap (Thermoplastic Rubber compliant with EN 13594) equipped with Velcro fastening.

These gloves conform to the EN388-2121X protective standard for mechanical hazard resistance, signifying:

Woodland, commonly referred to as U.S. Woodland or M81, represents a legendary camouflage design introduced to the US Armed Forces in the early 1980s, evolving from the former ERDL pattern. For more than twenty years, it served as the primary camouflage of the US military, remaining in widespread use until the conclusion of the first decade of the 21st century. Distinguished by broad, irregularly-shaped patches in various tones of green, brown, beige, and black, the pattern ensures excellent concealment and disruptive effects, particularly within forested landscapes. Owing to its proven effectiveness and international recognition, numerous derivatives have emerged, adopted by over 60 military uniforms worldwide. The influence of the pattern extends beyond military circles, having made a significant impact on contemporary fashion and popular culture.
