The #DSX-100 Hornet X™ is the next generation in elite tactical gloves and uses the very latest advanced technology. They have been designed for three primary operational applications: 1) To allow the tactical operator the highest amount of dexterity and tactility to manipulate weapons and tools; 2) Provide various rappelling capabilities without the use of a separate “over-glove”; 3) Solve long-term wear issues which other styles have faced (such as flight gloves), that were not designed for higher levels of punishing field use.
The #DSX-100 design excels by means of its material components, which are among the best available in the world:
The knuckles on the backs of the hands are reinforced with Keprotec® by Schoeller® Switzerland. Keprotec® is a blend of Cordura®, Dynafil®, TS70® and Kevlar®. It is a tenacious fabric with superior abrasion resistance, flexibility and is lightweight. It is used most commonly in apparel for extreme sports.
DuPont® Kevlar® fabric provides flame / flash protection as well as cut resistance on backs of hands and the entire index finger and remaining finger tips have been reinforced with premium aniline leather.
