One pair of HATCH Police Gloves, Model NYPD, FM 2100, size XL. These are standard issue for New York City Police Department. These gloves were purchased this Fall but they were never worn. They are in the original package -minus the printed insert - and have spent most of the since I got them in a draw, so while they really are brand new, I will say they are “As New” just to be absolutely honest. They are Black Leather and lined with both Spectra and Foam Hydrofill insulation.
Spectra is similar to Kevlar and Hatch advertises them as being resistant to knife and razor slash. I have not had occasion to verify this, and hope who ever gets them will never need to find out for sure, but Hatch is a well respected name in LE gear and the extra protection should be a comforting consideration. I have seen these on line for over $50.00.
Note that Hatch sizes run a bit to the small size: I usually wear a size L, but these (and other Hatch gloves) in size XL fit me fine.
What I really can use is a Maxpedition Universal Flashlight/Baton holder – In Black. Other than that, will consider a "user" folder (lefty or lefty friendly), or a flashlight, or......?
