Outdoor Research TAA Suppressor Gloves

I'll attempt to address some questions I couldn't find elsewhere. First off, the pics and manufacturer YouTube video project this as being a large glove that is in-between a "tactical" and work glove. This is more of a tactical glove as it fits like a second set of thick skin that is ideal for rifle manipulations more so than a ditch digging glove. The materials/stitching are outstanding and feel as if it is made to last. Regarding size, I have short, fat fingers with a fat palm. The fit is tight and using the manufacturers sizing guide, my hand circumference called for an XL and finger length called for a Large. I opted for the Large size and am glad I did so. If you fall in between sizes, pick the size you want to use it for. I got it as a weapons glove so I like a tight fitting glove and I figure it will expand just a bit to feel perfect. As stated earlier, this glove is deal for rifle handling more so than handgun as the ends of the fingers are slightly too stout for quick handling of a smaller handgun (G19) though it felt fairly good around my full size Gen 4 G20 but that can all be a training issue. Best price I could anywhere online too. Excellent glove made with excellent materials from an excellent company, can't ask for more. A+

The fit overall is on the smaller side. I'm a Large with just about every glove I own and always have a little extra wiggle room. These were tight from the get go and rather hard to get my hand in them at all. Now I use these in the line of duty as an operator and after one use the cuff of my right hand glove was lose. It seems something happened with the cuff. With the Velcro flap all the way closed and then some it's still lose in the cuff. I dunno what happened to it and maybe it's a quality issue. I own a lot of OR stuff and have had no issues until now. I really wanna love these because they have the Nomex and a quality leather stitched into them but with the issues noted it's hard.

Its a nice glove. Ive only had them a week as of this review but they seem durable. I am wondering about the pull-on loop. Its only held in with a few stitches and I just wonder if it will actually hold up to the duty its intended for.These aren't cold weather gloves but I can squeeze a merino liner in between and they would then work great for colder fall/spring days or if I was doing some strenuous activity like chopping wood or shoveling snow in the winter months.I usually wear a size glove size 11 and the XL fits nicely. One weird thing on the fit though is that the thumb is very long. The glove itself fits good and the length of the fingers are spot on, its just the thumb that is more than a half inch longer than it needs to be. I don't think I have an oddly short thumb either, maybe I do, never really thought about it.

After a brief break in they fit perfectly—second skin—surprisingly good dexterity. Their durability is excellent for the light weight, and they work with some touch screens (iStuff). They work well wet and dry out pretty quickly, and, confirmed, they are fire resistant. These are an excellent protective barrier. When I trash them I'll buy another pair.The only slight negative I can think of is that the cloth gets funky, like nomex tends to do. It's worth noting for those looking for a casual glove. Also, don't expect warmth from these.Are these far superior to the less expensive gloves in this category? I don't know, never tried them, probably won't now that I have these.

I use these for training and quickly turned into my defaults. They've been fantastic. They're on the good side of tight, but fit like a <GASP> glove down to my finger tips. The tactile contact is more than enough, and the leather has held up really well on both the knuckles and on the palms. I have scorched the leather a little on the fingers and palms due to removing a hot suppressor a few times which hasn't effected it ... I'll admit it looks kinda cool though (a little dark brown markings from that). Yes the heat transfers, but it's no problem if you have a quick disconnect.

Very high quality and perfect fit (XL). This was my second purchase of these gloves. I still have the first pair but after 3 years of heavy use, it was time for another. Excellent dexterity and very comfortable. Pricey a bit for sure but in this case, you do get what you pay for.

Nice glove with a small fit. Disappointed with them so I sent them back.

I purchased these for an upcoming deployment. I'm a loadmasters and I needed something more durable than nomex flight gloves we get issued. I've only used these OR gloves a few times on local training flights and they show no wear at all, even after slinging some chains and devices.They are comfortable, but I think they run small. I normally wear a large, but I had to buy the XL's because the smalls were just too tight.I'll update once I get a couple of weeks of actual mission duty on them.
