Tools and Hardware Reviews of Ironclad Framer Gloves FUG-03-M, MediumCustomer Review: Combat Ready Summary: 5 Stars
So it's time to replace these gloves with another set, after 4 tours in Afghanistan and a tour in Iraq. I purchased these in ~2001(?), and used them instead of the issued nomex flight gloves after the BC eased up on combat uniform standards (but you better wear your knee pads, Ranger!!!). I've used these in pretty much every environment, behind pretty much every weapon system the Army has to offer, from kicking doors in downtown Bagdad, to bounding across the punishing summits of the Hindu-Kush; these gloves put up with everything, including not being washed (or even taken off for that matter), for weeks/months on end.
These gloves have finally quit fighting on to the Ranger objective- all the stitching has held up, though I've now sadly worn through the creases my finger joints made in the leather fingers. The stitching actually outlasted the leather, and it's good leather.
The back of the thumbs have soft material for wiping your nose, or clearing your optics of fog/water/enemy blood/mud/etc. The soft material lasted ~3 combat tours (and all training rotations inbetween) before it had worn down to the bare fabric, but the fabric and stitching held.
The thumb, index, and middle finger are clipped short between the first and second knuckle, but the other fingers are long, which is great for pretty much everything. You've got two covered fingers for un-jamming a hot 240B or whatever, but with your exposed fingers you can accurately and efficiently give the enemy the good news, feed your suck, or take a leak. The only drawback is there's no subdued version of these gloves, so you'll have to take a sharpie, or paint marker to the yellow logo as I did every month or so. But that's a small modification, and hardly a drawback, so these get a major plus, and 5 stars.
RLTW!
