Tactical gloves for small hands

HistoryJunky · April 18, 2014, 02:05 PM

Do they exist? I am stuck with some small mitts, seriously, size small. I'm 24, they're not getting any bigger. I was out shopping looking for a decent pair of shooting/tactical gloves and was sorely disappointed. I'm lucky if I can find an elusive size medium, let alone small.

Are all gloves shooting/tactical oriented made for people with huge gorilla mitts?

Nope, go to your local golf shop or bicycle shop, they have them. Also try Goodwill for used ones.

Good farm and ranch stores will have good selections of gloves (elk, goat, and deer skin) going all the way down to little kid sizes. If it's padding in the palms you're looking for- take a peek at larger pharmacies for wheelchair gloves. Driving, motorcycle cruising, baseball, golf gloves all have at least some features that make them work well for shooting.

Take a look at the Mechanix brand.
They're tight fitting gloves designed for auto mechanics, but make very good shooting gloves, too.

Try motorcycling gloves, they are always quite small for the marked size.

Thanks everyone. I forgot I posted this in the middle of moving. Will look at the places you mentioned.

I have HWI HKTG 100 Hard Knuckle Tactical Gloves and definitely they are great tactical gloves . Even in the highest impact of tactical missions, these hard knuckle tactical gloves are just what you need for complete protection. You can enjoy complete flexibility even though your hands will be well protected and you will even maintain sensitivity in your fingers and hands. These gloves are amongst a very small number of models to offer you a knuckle shield to protect your fingers against high-impact and the digital leather palm offers weatherproofing along with good traction and reinforcement. These gloves are intended for high impact and intense tactical missions.

I like the Mechanix, PIG and even Ace hardware has a nice selection to try before you buy.
