Mechanix Wear - M-Pact Fingerless Coyote Gloves (Large, Brown) MFL-72-010

I have to be honest, my first impression of these things straight out the pack was "they've got to go back" - the quality is fantastic, you absolutely cannot fault how well made these gloves are: they're sturdy, solid and the material used is such, they even look like they've had a good few days steady work out of them - they have this lovely, broken in look - you're not looking at them thinking "these are too good to use" - you just want to put 'em straight on and get to it...Which is what I did and immediately found: they've tight to get on and get off again.The fit, once on is actually sublime: seriously they literally do fit just exactly like a glove, the inside back of the hand is lined, they're incredibly supportive and the TPR knuckle and finger protection is great, it really is - they just feel tight getting them on and taking them off the first few times you try them out.I'd already had an experience with a pair of Mechanix gloves wherein, once they got here, the glove was just too small to get my hand in full stop - and this was a "Large" sized glove and, in my haste to try this pair out, as I say - they felt too tight putting them on and getting them off again - my immediate thought was just send 'em back...However, on reflection, the quality and fit of the things once on got to me, I need gloves of some description this upcoming Easter weekend so I just spent a couple of hours breaking them in and now its like I've owned the things for years, they are that snug and sprung in all the right places without any stitching actually popping.Really, I can't praise these things enough - like the wood-turner in the other review, I've got arthritis, I've been on a bit of a glove hunt of late trying to find the right kind of protection and support for the various kinds of activities I have to do both in and out the home - needed something actually work suitable for gardening, outside work etc and these are just....Perfect.Really, once you break them in a bit its like you've had them for years and they're still serving you well, they're rugged, comfortable, and they even look like they're just itching to get a days work done.Fantastic gloves, really - I actually want to wear them even when not lugging plant pots around, they really are proper comfortable and supportive. The price is what it is for good reason. Sometimes you actually do get what you pay for and, just the put my money where my mouth is - and the fact they went on offer immediately after I ordered this pair - I bought a second pair while the going was good.In the end I can't think of a higher recommendation for anything. Definitely worth the money.10/10

I use them at work as a steel erector and they protect my hands and knuckles, leaving my fingers free to fit bolts,nuts and washers to steel beams.

Bought the pair for cycling and am very satisfied so far. They're very comfortable. Pads cushion palms very well. Will update the review after few washings.

Not the best for wet work but very good gloves

Been using Mechanix gloves for years but lately the sizing is smaller than before, bought a pair of full finger m-pax XL a few months ago and they fit great around my palms but pinky fingers of the gloves seem long, these ones labelled as XL are so tight I struggled to get them on WTH Mechanix?!

Wow. I mean gloves normally last around 2 maybe 3 mouths before disintegrating!This pair of good protection gloves have lasted as in the title a year with general gardening.Small pads under the hands minimise vibration from petrol machines eg mowers and strimmers. The over hand padding is great too for Knocking knuckles on walls and brambles pulling over your hands ect.still feel safer with them on when operating hand power tools and the fingerless tips makes this easier to control them. ( drills, pencil, tapes).Overall, fall control, great protection, comfortable for all day use. Will be buying once a year.

This is my second pair, only because I lost one of them, and my old ones had plenty y of life in them. But glad to have a new pair. 10/10

I am a 77 yr old woodturner with severe arthritis in my hands.. The wood I work with is quite large , heavy, often way out of balance, knotty, gnarly with hard and soft areas and creates a lot of knockback and vibration through the tools making it quite painful to my hands. These gloves absorb some of that vibration making it a bit more comfortable to work. My fingers are still able to feel the wood surface and hold sandpaper etc and also improve my grip on the tools.I now get a lot less pain and much more enjoyment from my woodturning.I also wear them while chainsawing. making that a lot more comfortable and with improved grip, a lot safer. In all, a good product and I am well pleased.
