At first, we didn't quite know what to call these - they're not surplus gloves. they're not quite reproductions either. We actually found the OEM that makes these gloves for the Ukrainian Military, and these are the real deal.
Think of them a little like Ukrainian Mech*nix but a little more put-together than your run-of-the-mill auto parts store gloves. These gloves are distinctly sturdier with thicker materials all around, and a suede palm that doesn't pill up at the slightest abrasion - in a few other places they've thought out the stitching a little more and the adjustment strap is nice & thick so it's not hard to manipulate.
It features reinforcements at key abrasion points with stretch panels at the knuckles, joints, and back of the hand for fantastic mobility & fit. And of course, it features small loops for putting the gloves on a carabiner.
The gloves do a good job at reminding you who they're fighting for — the outside has the Ukrainian Crest and "Збройні сили України" or "Zbroini syly Ukrayiny" as the repeating rubberized logo motif.

Sizing
Stick to your normal work glove letter size — the stretch on the back panels is pretty generous, but you'll notice the glove overall is a little thicker thanks to the more robust construction.

The gloves are good. I first got a size large, but they were a little too big, so I exchanged them for a medium. The exchange process with Kommando Store was easy and hassle-free
Nice well made gloves, extra cool points for it being legit Ukrainian surplus. I normally rock these when I’m wanting a little more padding in my gloves for extended days, still comfortable enough to shoot in.
Feel great, fit good, and look amazing. I love everything about these gloves and I cant wait to use them later in year.
Great quality gloves that fit perfectly, they come in all the right colors and at a really good price
Got these for free for getting doubles on my sticker order. Solid fit, good finger dexterity, warms the hands without making them super sweaty. Now I can LARP as either BEAR or USEC with the Mechanix gloves I got from my work.
