“…Wearing them can prove to be disadvantageous in overall workability, including hand strength, dexterity, task time, and range of motion [2][3][4] , which can all lead to safety accidents. According to Do [5] , the tactical activities that most frequently caused injuries were mountain rescue (35.29%), helicopter descent (23.53%), and shooting tactics (11.77%), all three of which involve high-level hand activities dealing with equipment such as ropes and firearms. Thus, to ensure the soldier's overall safety, the trade-off between protective function and task performance of tactical gloves must be overcome.…”

This study aims to improve soldiers' mission performance and protect them from safety accidents by establishing an optimal sizing system that considers the fit of the tactical gloves and the efficiency of production and supply. First, the wearing condition of tactical gloves was investigated through in-depth interviews and surveys. The optimal glove fit and loss coefficient ratio was then analyzed through a glove size selection experiment. Finally, the sizing system was optimized and verified by comparing the coverage rate to the current sizing system. Results indicated that the empirically derived loss coefficient ratio was 0.075 and the optimal sizing system for tactical gloves was S-hand length: 168, hand width: 81, M-hand length: 177, hand width: 83, L-hand length: 184, hand width: 86, XL-hand length: 191, hand width: 89, respectively. The coverage rate of the optimal sizing system proposed in this study was 86.4%, showing an improvement of approximately 21.1% compared to the current sizing system (65.3%). In conclusion, the optimal sizing system for tactical gloves proposed in this study can be a realistic solution, as it improved the coverage rate by 21.1% without incurring additional costs for production or hindering the efficiency of supply.

This study aims to improve Korean male soldiers’ mission performance and protect them from safety accidents by establishing an optimal sizing system that considers the fit of tactical gloves and production and supply efficiency. First, the wearing condition of tactical gloves was investigated through in-depth interviews and surveys. The optimal glove fit and loss coefficient ratio was then analyzed through a glove size selection experiment. Finally, the sizing system was optimized and verified by comparing the coverage rate to the current sizing system. The empirically derived loss coefficient ratio was 0.075, and the optimal sizing system for tactical gloves was S-hand length: 168 mm, hand width: 81 mm, M-hand length: 177 mm, hand width: 83 mm, L-hand length: 184 mm, hand width: 86 mm, XL-hand length: 191 mm, and hand width: 89 mm. The coverage rate of the optimal sizing system proposed in this study was 86.4%, showing an improvement of approximately 21.1% compared to the current sizing system (65.3%). In conclusion, the optimal sizing system for tactical gloves proposed in this study can realistically solve current sizing issues, as it improved the coverage rate by 21.1% without incurring additional costs for production or hindering the supply efficiency.
