Mechanix ArmorCore Extrication Gloves – Product Review

This is the second pair of Mechanix gloves we have been asked to use and review.  Read the first review on the Mechanix Wear Leather Extrication Gloves HERE.

Here is part of the ArmorCore Glove description right on the Mechanix site:  For use by fire, safety and rescue professionals, this super-duty glove represents the ultimate combination of advanced protective technology and highest quality materials. Our proprietary cut and puncture resistant fabric lines the palm side of the glove and is reinforced with genuine goatskin leather in high wear and gripping areas. The top of the hand is protected by a Kevlar® outer shell as well as TPR knuckle and full-length finger protection. Combined with reflective materials throughout the top of hand and fingertips, this glove has it all.
