The UPG3 is made with premium heavy-duty leather, has a wrist strap that allows for better fit and quick removal and each glove has a textured rubber grip palm to help hold onto the slimiest "perps". The UPG3 features a Dupont™ Kevlar® lining & Weighted knuckles. This was the original glove that we introduced in the UPG line. "If you ever wanted a weighted knuckle glove, but did not like the dressey winter type glove that was available, then your wait is over. The "UPG" a great looking glove fits well and feels great!"

* A note about Dupont™ Kevlar ® lined gloves: Kevlar ® lined gloves are cut resistant, not cut proof. This means they will help resist against a blade cut but you will still likely be cut if you are not carefully. They will not stop a puncture from a needle, a stab from a pointy object or a hard slash with a sharp knife. Use caution whenever you conduct a search. We have done extensive in-house testing, and no Kevlar ® or Spectra ® lined glove is cut-proof from any manufacturer.

* Please note: Because of the kevlar, steel shot and grip sewn into the UPG gloves , they fit a little tighter and it is recommended that you go one size larger than you usually wear if your normal size glove is a snug fit. IE. if you normally wear a large and it fits a little loose, then you order a large. If you normally wear a large and it is snug or you can sometimes wear an X-Large, then order the bigger size. This is not a science, it is just our suggestion to help you choose the right size.
