Description
This is the high-dexterity take on the M-Pact family. Instead of the thicker synthetic leather found on the standard Covert, this version runs a slim 0.5mm AX-Suede palm that keeps your feel for a trigger, a knife, a tool, or a phone screen almost like you're bare-handed. That thin palm is the whole point here, and it pairs with molded TPR knuckle protection so you're not giving up defense to get that precision.
What Sets the M-Pact 0.5mm Covert Apart
Mechanix built the impact protection to meet the EN 388 impact standard, with thermoplastic rubber sonic-welded across the back of the hand. The tapered TPR fingertip guards protect the pinch points where your fingers take the worst abuse, and there's a dedicated TPR wrist closure that cinches down for a secure, no-slop fit. Up top, breathable TrekDry fabric on the back of the hand moves heat and sweat out so your hands stay cooler through a long day.
Built for Trigger Work and Touchscreens
A couple of thoughtful touches separate these from a generic work glove. The trigger finger uses removable seams that eliminate material fray, giving you a cleaner, more consistent index finger for shooting and fine manipulation. There's a polyester thumb sweat wipe for clearing your brow or your optic, and nylon carrier loops on the cuff so you can clip them to your kit or a bag. The AX-Suede palm carries touchscreen capability throughout, so you can run your phone or tablet without stripping a glove off.
These land with military, law enforcement, range, and general maintenance and repair crowds for good reason. If you want impact coverage but refuse to lose the tactile control, this Medium pair hits that balance about as well as anything Mechanix makes. They're machine washable too, so cleanup after a dirty day is painless.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are the M-Pact 0.5mm Covert gloves touchscreen compatible?
Yes. The 0.5mm AX-Suede palm carries touchscreen capability across the fingers and thumb, so you can run a phone or tablet without pulling a glove off. The thin palm material is what makes that feel accurate rather than clumsy.
How is this different from the standard M-Pact Covert glove?
The main difference is the palm. This 0.5mm version uses a thin AX-Suede palm built for maximum dexterity and precision feel, while the standard Covert uses a thicker 0.8mm synthetic leather palm. You get more tactile control here at the trade of a slightly less padded palm surface.
Do these gloves work for shooting?
They're a popular choice for range and duty use. The removable trigger finger seams give you a cleaner index finger for consistent trigger contact, and the thin palm keeps your feel for the controls high while the TPR guards still cover your knuckles and fingertips.
Can I wash the M-Pact 0.5mm Covert gloves?
Yes, they're machine washable, which makes them easy to keep clean after dusty or grimy work. Air drying is the safer bet to protect the TPR and AX-Suede over the long haul.
