Blackhawk® Hellstorm® Gloves Get The Latest Grip On Glove Technology

NORFOLK, VA (July 26, 2006)  BlackHawk Products Group™, the world leader in tactical gear, take tactical gloves to the next level with the HellStorm S.O.L.A.G.™, Fury™, and the Fury Commando™. HellStorm gloves are now at the forefront of glove technology featuring the newest high performance materials combined with design functionality resulting in an evolutionary advancement that significantly enhances fit, function and durability.

The S.O.L.A.G  with NOMEX® and the S.O.L.A.G. with KEVLAR® now have an ‘over-wrap’ design on the fingertips. This design eliminates the seam on the fingertips and enhances the tactile ability, important for operating equipment and firearms, and prevents the wearer’s fingernails from wearing through.

SOLAG FULL FINGER

All leather has been upgraded to a specially treated goatskin leather from the world famous Pittards™ Tannery in England. The palm leather has been treated with ARMOR TAN™ and WR100X™ treatments. The back of the hand leather is WR100X treated. WR100X instills the leather with a water resistance which keeps the glove soft after repeated exposure to water and/or perspiration. ARMOR TAN is a chemical process by which the leather fibers are encased in ceramic for a 25% greater abrasion resistance. Ergonomically molded 4mm EVA foam padding has been added to the back of the hand and fingers for increased protection. The fit of the glove has been greatly improved with to fit longer fingers and provide for a better thumb position which improves dexterity while reducing stress on the glove seams. All models now have a nylon web loop on the palm side of the glove to allow easy donning and attachment to carabineers. The back of the hand hook and loop closure have also been moved upwards to eliminate the gap found on previous models.
