These came from a friend of mine who’s an AF pilot. He was issued two pairs and gave a set to me. He doesn’t know who makes them, and there’s no tag in them other than size. Anyone know who makes them?
that’s the first ive ever seen those and I prefer flight gloves to most others id like to find out who makes em
Can you post a picture of the top with the thumb extended instead of hid underneath?
oh snap. I MUST HAVE A PAIR…
Very cool, interested in who makes them as well.
Are they the winter weight gloves? The summer weight issued flight gloves I used to wear did NOT last very long. They had poor stitching and didn’t stand up well to washing.
Amazon has these listed if people are still looking.
Damn. Lol! I was excited but I’m glad I read all the details. The Multicam versions are not Nomex and not fire resistant. I’ll hold out for the real thing.
Found some list on Hank’s Surplus website…not sure if they are true NOMEX or not. Sent them an email asking about them, but haven’t heard back yet

Actually Hank’s is the vendor listed at Amazon. They are not flame retardant. Here is the description from your link.
“MultiCam Camouflage: Soft and flexible. 93% Nylon/7% Spandex”
thanks for clarifying El Cid…was looking on my phone and couldn’t read the whole description
Commercially available vs issued flight gloves never seem to fare as well.
