The Angel Air-time glove has been created with performance as it's main priority. Extensive testing has proven the choice of fabrics.
Features:
Non-restricting stretch fabrics have been used throughout, all strategically placed to allow maximum airflow and maximum protection.
Embossed aeroprene (breathable neoprene) gives a very streamlined, low-profile padding removing the need for stitched on rubber panels which become possible burst zones. Aeroprene is also incorporated in the embossed articulated thumb panels, preventing bulking whilst improving fit, feel, and comfort.
Woven, open eyelet mesh provides maximum airflow and a cushioned feel that takes the sting out of the fiercest bunkering. For the smaller two fingers, WDP has chosen a 2 way stretch spandex that offers impressive non-restrictive, venting properties. 'Power-knit' mesh between the fingers allows every finger to breath and Chamoid (synthetic leather) finger and thumb tips provide ultimate strength and protection and prevents you from sticking to the velcro on your pack.
Pittards' carbon fiber lubricated leather (the finest glove leather in the world) has been utilized on the pre-curved palm, fingers, and thumb to create a second skin feel with unparallel grip. Minimal palm padding is used to prevent bulking in the palm, insuring 100% feel of your marker at all times. Silicon grip has been removed from the palm and fingers to prevent your trigger fingers from sticking as you walk the trigger at high speed.
Ballistic, slash resistant Kevlar in the area that extends over the heel of the hand. This panel also acts as a pull-tab and allows you to pull the gloves on to the hand with ease
Airtime glove is finished with direct injection logos which allow the fabric to stretch and breath, preventing the heavy, sweat creating branding caused by heavy/bulky stitched TPR's that other manufacturers use.

| Review: |
Another not thought enough about product from WDP. These gloves look cool, they are light, and they fit perfect on my hands. These gloves have good light padding for your whole hand. However, these glove are not durable at all. After just one day of playing speedball the gloves looked like they were attached to a bomb. The glove had holes and cuts and the dirt that was in it always remained in the color no matter how many times you washed them. The holes and cuts though did not ruin the gloves. I am still using the gloves today, but they are almost ripped. If I had not cut the index and middle finger parts of the glove off they would have fell off. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Looks amazing, feels good, just not very durable. |

| Review: |
I thought these were brilliant when i bought them an put them on. they fit really well and provide excellent trigger feel. i've played with them two times and they have begun to fall apart. the "airtime" material between the fingers has begun to separate from the palm material such that i have three big holes on my left fingers and two on my right... after just two times playing, and i don't even play that hard... |
|
| Conclusion: |
don't buy these. WDP needs more time with soft goods manufacturing before i'll give them another try. i would think it is probably best to go with a company that has a bit more reputation for their gloves... Dye, JT, etc.
2... because that's how many times i wore them... |

| Review: |
This is a great glove for tournament play. The gloves looks are amazing and they grip on your gun, no slipping.
The only problem is that the two trigger fingers make you walk the trigger as fast. I wish the manufactures would notice that all the pros cut off the 2 trigger fingers anyway, they should make them that way. |
|
| Conclusion: |
A very good pair of gloves at a reasonable price. |

| Review: |
Altogether this glove is great, worth the money. I have been shot in the hands several times a day without leaving a mark. Even on hot days with intense play, my hands were cool and bone dry.
The only negative thing I can think of happened when I just got the gloves, a triangular piece of velcro tore off. That hasn't effected the gloves performance and I haven't had any problems with it since (other than minor fraying that woudl happen with any other glove). |
|
| Conclusion: |
The fit is amazing, keeps your hands dry, and let you feel everything you touch with detail. Worth the dimes. |

| Review: |
Best glove I've used by far. Quality, fit, and materials are far better than the Dye's. They are also more breathable and flexible and the padding much more dense therefore it hurts less to get shot in the hand. Having no rubber is also a plus as I've had many balls hit the rubber on my 03 Cores and bust, but the angels buffer the shot if its from a distance and prevent the ball from breaking. |
|
| Conclusion: |
If you want a good glove this is the glove for you |
