I like the Hatch Operator CQBs a lot - they fit well on my hand and don't interfere with manual dexterity.

Wiley-X also makes some nice gloves, IMO. i don't recall how much they were, but i think it was the 60 range

I can recommend some nomex flight gloves. I use mine every time I'm in the field,they protect pretty well from the elements (wind, trees, bugs about to die) and fit fairly tight to your skin. Usually they run from $20-30 new. uscav.com has a few types and color variants if you want to check them out, plus I believe they are having a 20% off sale soon. (Apr. 14-16 I think)

I like the Hatch Operator CQBs a lot - they fit well on my hand and don't interfere with manual dexterity. I use the same gloves now, and I used them in the real world. They give the protection I want without the feeling of wearing a glove. If you are looking for airsoft protection though, check into the Oakley gloves. They may be pricey, but the hard protection is nice when getting shot in the nubs with 400fps of love. A cheaper alternative is motorcross gloves, I'm not sure on the colors available but they have hard finger and knuckle protection. |

Wiley X's are usually like $80-$100 from what Ive seen...
Id agree with Hobo and say go with the Nomex flight gloves. They are cheaper and great. They may not look as highspeed as SOLAGs, Oakleys or Hatch, but they do the trick for airsoft.

Thanks guys, Im looking for something that wont restrict my hand movement, give some protection, and just look plain BA. The Hatch CQB gloves sound pretty great from you guys, so I might go with those.

I'm not sure if you prefer full hand gloves or cut off gloves. I personally use bicycling gloves, they have great padding, excellent ventillation, and never get in the way.

Ive been pretty pleased with my "mechanix" gloves. They were about 25 but have held up very nicely.

Ohhh, I was looking at the Blackhawk SOLAG's. Man, I never knew something as small as gloves would be such a hard choice.

You really can't go wrong with Hatch gloves, whether it's the standard flight gloves or the Operators. If anything, flight gloves can be found cheaply as surplus items.

For the longest time I was wearing a pair of 15 dollar black gloves I picked up at Home Depot, they have nice suede leather palms. They work great for airsoft since they're not too thick and I can feel everything very well.
However, I just picked up a pair of 5.11 tac gloves too. I'll be wearing them for the first time on Saturday, so I can post more about the comfort level then. They feel really good and for 22 bucks, I couldn't pass them up.
