Mechanix Winter Impact Pro Winter Gloves

The Winter Impact Pro are tactical winter gloves designed for those who work outdoors in severe cold, rain and wind: shooters, hunters and professionals who cannot sacrifice finger sensitivity or hand protection. The internal micro-fleece lining covers the entire inner surface of the glove, while 3M Thinsulate C40 insulation retains body heat without adding excessive bulk.

The Hipora waterproof barrier creates a clear separation between the insulation and the outside environment: it blocks liquid water and significantly reduces wind penetration, keeping hands dry even in persistent rain or snow. The distinction matters: the glove is waterproof thanks to the Hipora liner, not merely water-resistant. This means the protection holds even when the outer shell is completely soaked — a common condition during a hunting session or an extended outing.

Demanding tasks put stress on hands that a purely thermal glove cannot handle. The TPR (thermoplastic rubber) back-of-hand guards protect fingertips from pinching, the Armortex reinforcement on the knuckles reduces the effects of impacts, and the same Armortex material reinforces the fingertips where wear is fastest. The palm incorporates EVA padding that reduces fatigue during prolonged use. The trade-off to consider: all this protective structure delivers durability, but reduces tactile sensitivity compared to a lightweight shooting glove — a deliberate choice in favour of protection and warmth. Thumb and index finger are touchscreen-compatible via TouchTec technology, allowing device operation without removing the glove.

Key features
