    My Oakley assaults have held up great on my weekly grocery runs. Can grip the frozen pizza with no problems and the knuckles are good for fending off people trying to take my free samples. 11/10

      Define "assault shopping glove." No such thing. Probably closer to compare it to a fake news media term of "Military Grade Glove System." Rockin out with my MGGS's out! ;D

    I’ve had both the outdoor research and the Mechanix mpacts and loved them both. It was easier to do fine manipulations with the ORs but the mechanix offered more protection. Once the Mechanix are soaked in sweat and form to your hand, they work even better before the seams decide to bust. If you’re military, both work great in the field or on the range.

    I originally bought a pair of Mechanix FastFits as an airsoft glove, and they very quickly became universal gloves; I've used them for driving gloves, work gloves, outdoors gloves, etc... Basically, if there was any mischief that required the use of my hands, the FastFits were my go-to choice. I've even used them as light cold-weather gloves during the fall and spring.

    All of these gloves seem to be suited for dry and warm places. From my own experience gloves need to be able to keep your hands dry for a whole day. When i was training in the Finnish Marine our excersises and patrol missions could last for 3-10 days out in the forest and coastline, none of those gloves would have kept my hands dry. Most of those gloves would be soaking wet after the first time I hit the ground for cover because of moss. In my own experience i find real leather palm gloves or sealskins to be really good. Leather gloves also dont get as worn quickly, all my other gloves worn out quickly on the tip of the index finger because of the stiff and sharp safety on the RK62

    Got a pair of wileyXs hard knuckle gloves because you mentioned them. Got bit in the hand by a dog while wearing them and they did get punctured, I needed no stitches and the polymer knuckle absolutely saved me. The dog basically crushed my index finger and put a few holes in my plam, but if I didn't have that polymer knuckle protection I can only imagine how badly my knuckles would've gotten torn up. The gloves sucked at heat resistance and at like $90 they're not cheap but I'm so glad you mentioned them. Thanks for saving my hand dude!

    Oakley Assaults lasted about 2 months into the deployment without tearing. Ive had 3 pairs and ALWAYS tear out on the thumb/fore finger seam
    Ran MULTIPLE pairs of the WyleyX hardknuckles/removable. Great all around glove, good cut, with thicker leather you trade durability f/dexterity solid choice. Found an old pair of Blackhawk S.O.L.A.G. gloves still in the package while going through some old boxes and decided what the hell. Been great, pretty sturdy, paded knuckle is nice. I like the wrist support you get with the double velcro. Im a fan. Best feeling gloves Ive ever owned were Hatch Kevlar Shooter’s gloves from about 12yrs ago. They changed the material on the inside on the newer models and are no where near the same dexterity.

    5.11 Taclite 2. Favorite gloves to date. 350-400 hours of long gun Picatinny rail use before holes developed. Could remove a suppressor quickly in a pinch but not recommend as a habit. Still thin enough to use touch screen and perform body searches. Breathable and comfortable enough for all day wear without having to take them off (20+ hours). Worked as an SOF instructor 5+ years.
