I've done a bit of searching around (here and elsewhere) and I am looking to solicit some advice on gloves. I've seen a couple people who post here have gone with Hatch Nomex Aviator Gloves. I am only looking at gloves that are available in OD, or sage, or some green varient, black just won't do. So here is my short list of glove choices, any opinions would be appreciated.
1) Hatch Nomex Flight Gloves: hatch-corp.com/lawpages/bng200.html
2) Hatch Operator Tactical Gloves: hatch-corp.com/lawpages/sogl-150.html
3) Hatch Operator "CQB" Gloves: hatch-corp.com/lawpages/sog-f15.html
4) Blackhawk Hellstorm Aviator Gloves: www.blackhawkindustries.com/product_detail.asp?product_id=2043&d=
5) Southwest Motor Sports (SWMS) Max Grip NT Gloves: www.southwestmotorsports.com/images/Photos/MXG%20both.jpg and www.southwestmotorsports.com/images/MAX%20GRIP%20NT%20GLOVES.pdf
Of course the SWMS gloves are the most expensive. I've heard a number of durability issues with the Hellstorm gloves, so unless someone says otherwise, I guess they are off the list. I hear mixed things about Hatch gloves, input would be appreciated. Haven't found a whole lot about SWMS gloves so if anyone knows anything please educate me. I guess the sixth choice is GI issue nomex flight gloves.
Are there any other gloves I should put up for consideration?
So, can anyone help me sort this out. This is one of the last gear decisions I have to make for the next couple weeks. I am trying to get everything in before OP:Blind Fury down here in Ohio. For those coming, I look forward to seeing you soon!
