Patrol Store is happy to announce the new range of kevlar gloves and police gloves.

Police gloves are an essential item that give the user extra protection from many hazards encountered during police work.

Protection for your hands can occasionally be disregarded due to past experience of the irritation caused by ill fitting, bulky and uncomfortable gloves. Low quality bulky gloves can hinder your dexterity and tactile feel, which can have a major impact when dealing with crime scenes and general police equipment.

The many different situations you find yourself in during police work can call for different types of gloves to be used for best protection and as this is the case many different styles, thickness and levels of protection have been developed.

Due to its strength-to-weight ratio Kevlar is used and is reported to be “5 times stronger than steel on an equal weight basis”. Drug users often leave used hypodermic needles, which can transmit all sorts of nasty viruses and diseases. Hazards such as broken glass from a break in and a knife attack can be protected by slash protection. Some people may need protection from adverse weather conditions where as others may need protection from electric shock.

Luckily all conditions and situations are now accounted for, what people want in terms of comfort and style is also a big factor when purchasing a pair of protective gloves. But with many different styles available you can get gloves to suit any level of protection.

The Viper Slash Resistant Gloves are stylish and they have some great protective features built in. There is a layer of DuPont Kevlar, which is used in body armour and is resistant to high temperatures. The Viper Slash Resistant Gloves feature a smooth finish and snug fit giving added comfort and style. So if you wish to use these gloves in everyday life they would fit in perfectly.

With its trademark Spectra® knit lining the 5.11 Gladiator Slash Resistant Patrol Glove is possibly the best looking police glove available. As you would expect from 5.11 these gloves have more than adequate protection including cut and slash protection and Tactical Touch™ technology to give enhanced dexterity and in turn maintain full control of equipment. These gloves are not only visually attractive but they enable you to confidently engage the public safe in the knowledge that if a situation does arise you can have faith in your protective equipment.

Kevlar lining is essential when it comes to light operations. The BlackHawk Hellstorm Light Operations Glove has a brand new material, HellStorm® S.O.L.A.G. The outer of the glove is in goatskin but not any old goatskin.

The material is of premium quality and treated with WRX and Armortan to give a longer lasting more durable glove as well as extreme comfort. These gloves are designed to stay in place no matter what you put them through. Their dual layer of goatskin combined with the WRX and Armortan treatment process’ which takes place in Pittards, Tannery in England allows for extreme dexterity and suppleness even after repeated liquid exposure including perspiration. Also extra padding around the knuckles and back of hand and over-wrap on the fingers to reduce finer tip breakages and tearing.

25% more abrasion protection is created by the fibres being encased in ceramic. The Black Hawk Light Operations Glove gives great comfort with the new nylon fastening tab which can also be used for attachment to you carabiner or equipment belt.
