  The Next Generation of Impact Protection
==========================================

The most advanced HexArmor™ impact resistance comes with all the dexterity, all the comfort, and more protection than offered by any other impact-protective glove on the market. Our proprietary IR-X™ technology shields our gloves with a full back-of-hand Impact Exoskeleton™ so every joint and knuckle is protected from debilitating blows.

 In addition to being 42% taller than competitive impact guards, IR-X™ smash guards are purpose-built to deflect the force of sudden impacts away from the impact point, rather than transferring force directly to the hand. This unique characteristic is what sets IR-X™ safety levels higher than the competition, and its flexibility is what makes the IR-X™ Impact Exoskeleton™ more comfortable and more dexterous than any other impact-resistant technology available.
