I'm trying to get a start on Christmas shopping here, and I know dad needs a good pair of gloves. He prefers black leather, hates snap buttons and zippers, and doesn't like short gloves that end right at the wrist. So far I've found Hatch KFG1000 flight gloves. They look great in the pictures I've found online, but it's hard to determine how flexible they are.

Dad's a hardware guy, so he needs something that not only protects his hands, but still has flexibility to draw his handgun, and has warmth for winter. Those Hatch gloves are supposed to be heat and cut resistant. He doesn't like bulk - he wants them to be form-fitting.

While I'm at it, I decided I'm going to get some for myself and my brother, too. The Hatch EM007 shooting gloves look flexible and warm without the bulk. I like form-fitting gloves so I can easily draw and shoot.

Suggestions for any other gloves?
