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.

My normal glove size is too big(i wear size large), so maybe order one size down. Just a bit too big for me. Still like em, just gotta deal with the extra space in the glove.
Great design, sizing, fit and dexterity. I’ve run my pair through hell and they have done me brilliantly
Glov 🧤👍
They fit well and are pretty comfortable. The only action i really put them through was bowling but even then, they feel great!
A decent fit, good and dexterous and they even look great as well. Money well spent I’d say
