Prior to the launch of the PIG® Full Dexterity Tactical (FDT) Alpha Gloves, marksmen were forced to choose between outer hand protection and the fine tactile sensitivity required for precision trigger control. Thick defensive padding dulled finger responsiveness, while multi-layered palms bunched up under tension, disrupting grip consistency.
The PIG FDT Alpha solved this compromise, establishing the benchmark for modern tactical handwear with a core principle: The less you feel your gloves, the better you can shoot.
Engineered with multiple industry-first innovations, the FDT Alpha utilizes a Single Layer Multi-Piece Palm so only one layer of material contacts your grip. Coupled with an isolated trigger finger made from ultra-thin Clarino™ material and dual flex joints, the Alpha delivers barehand-like trigger feel while maintaining essential abrasion and impact resistance.
Key Features
- Single Layer Multi-Piece Palm: Eliminates excess material and palm bunching by ensuring only a single layer of engineered synthetic fabric interfaces with your firearm grip.
- Sensitized & Isolated Trigger Finger: Constructed with ultra-thin Clarino™ material on the trigger finger to preserve critical tactile feedback during trigger reset and break.
- Dual Flex Joint Trigger Finger: Features dedicated articulation flex points along the trigger finger to eliminate material tension during movement.
- Flexible Padded Knuckles: Built with Stretch Cordura® 1000D over low-profile knuckle padding, taking the edge off impacts without introducing unnecessary bulk.
- Optimized Material Zoning: Integrates ventilated mesh fabric on the inner finger sides for heat dissipation and durable Clarino™ on outer stress points.
- Low Profile Snag Reduction Hook Closure: Features low-profile Velcro hook closures that minimize abrasion and gear snagging around sleeves and plate carriers.
- Practical Functional Details: Includes a bar-tacked Paracord pull loop for quick donning, wrap-over fingertips for fingernail protection, palm/finger ventilation holes, and a micro-suede nose wipe on the thumb.

FAQ
- Q: Why does the PIG FDT Alpha use a single-layer palm?
- A: A single-layer palm prevents fabric from bunching or shifting under force, delivering direct mechanical feel between your palm and the pistol or rifle grip.
- Q: Is the trigger finger thinner than the rest of the glove?
- A: Yes. The trigger finger is specifically isolated and uses the thinnest available Clarino™ material to maximize tactile sensitivity on the trigger shoe.
- Q: Does the FDT Alpha feature hard knuckle protection?
- A: No. It uses padded Stretch Cordura® 1000D, which protects against light impacts and abrasion without restricting hand mobility or adding bulk.
