ECC Debuts New FR Gloves

Environmental Control Corporation (ECC) is a new company offering gear for shooters, military, and law enforcement personnel. Their first new product is the FR Glove 1.0, a fire retardant glove for tactical use. Let’s take a look at the features in a little more detail.

One of the interesting design choices is the sizing. Rather than standard named sizes, like Small or Large, ECC uses palm circumference and hand length measurements. Simply measure your hand as directed, and pick the circumference and length measurement that line up with your measurements. These gloves are made of Kevlar and kangaroo leather. Those are not inexpensive materials, and the FR Gloves have an MSRP of $120.

ECC sent me a pair of these gloves a little more than a year ago, and they have made appearances in a few of my reviews. My full review is coming soon, but prepare for it to be positive. The ECC FR gloves are in stock on the ECC website and available for order now.

From the manufacturer:

“The FR Glove is a high dexterity combat glove, designed as a best-of-all-worlds alternative to legacy products. ECC’s V1.0 release was developed and tested over 5 years and 7 iterations.Careful material selection and construction allows ECC to match the comfort and tactility of synthetic ‘mechanic’ gloves, while offering a level of durability and protection that exceeds heavier goatskin products.As required by a modern combat glove, inherently fire retardant Kevlar™ and kangaroo help prevent burns from flash fires, open flames, and dangerously hot surfaces – even after extensive use and wear. Unlike legacy products, the FR Glove is also water tolerant and naturally resists cracking and hardening.”
