Compatibility
The Phenom 6 PG1 gloves are sized Small through 2X-Large and are designed to work alongside standard duty uniforms and long sleeves. They perform in dry and wet conditions and suit riot control, crowd management, cell extractions, and general high-contact patrol work. They are cut-resistant, not cut-proof, and should not be treated as a guarantee against punctures from needles or fine blades. They are not insulated cold-weather gloves and are not designed as chemical or liquid barriers, so pair them with task-specific gear when those hazards are present.
Intended Users
Police officers, state troopers, and sheriff's deputies rely on these gloves for impact and cut protection during arrests and physical encounters. Corrections officers and probation officers wear them for cell extractions and searches where hidden sharps are a real risk. Riot control units, SWAT teams, and military personnel use the Phenom 6 for crowd management and tactical operations that demand both armor and dexterity. Security professionals and other frontline workers who face unpredictable, hands-on situations also depend on this level of protection.
