Palm Pilots

Cool piece of kit from our blogging brothers at Kit Up!

The Hatch CQB glove is amazing. It’s made of Kevlar with a kangaroo skin palm. The cuff is long enough to cover your watch and fits nicely under your ACU cuff. The fabric is thin enough that you can do most tasks (including shooting) without removing the glove. I spent 3 months in training and 12 months operating in Iraq with these. I still have the pair (although they are nearly black now), and they still go to the field with me every time. Great gloves.

The description made me laugh. When it said “it’s made of Kevlar with a kangaroo skin palm,” I couldn’t help but to think of that great line from Anchorman.:

“It’s made with bits of real panther, so you know it’s good…..They’ve done studies, you know. 60% of the time, it works every time.”

Buy a pair here.

    I’ve been looking at those for a while, might have to grab a pair since my run-of-the-mill nomex gloves are a little worn. Needless to say, only a VMI man has a true appreciation of a durable but comfortable palm…
