The Sentry Gloves shown below are essentially the short-cuff version of the Vigil gloves shown above and share exactly the same specifications and features. Actually, it IS the Vigil glove, but without the fleece cuff sewn to it. It’s shown here with the tan ‘digital pattern’ textured leather. Like the Vigil, it’s made of Massif’s Stretch Elements softshell Nomex fabric, which provides weather-proof protection against the elements. It’s designed for cooler to moderately cold weather.

OR Gear Longbow gloves

Posted in EQUIPMENT, Gloves on June 2nd, 2007 by Militarymoron

The Longbow is a FR (fire resistant) glove with a convertible cuff. The Longbow has a soft, lightweight cuff that can be tucked inside to convert the glove to a ‘short’ glove, or worn outside, gauntlet style. The cuff is made of Massif HotJohns fabric, and is elastic enough to seal around the wrist. The Nomex fabric for the rest of the glove was specifically developed by Massif for OR Gear gloves, and is called Wolverineâ„¢. It’s a 4-way stretch Nomex, with bonded double layers. The outside layer is the smoother Elements soft shell fabric and the inside layer is the soft CoolKnit, described here. Flame-resistant cowhide is used for the palm and the rest of the leather details which include a knuckle protector on the back of the hand and a reinforced trigger finger cut-away. Kevlar thread is used throughout, with exposed seams being double stitched. The leather-protected wrist closure uses FR velcro.
