Within jail systems, prisons, and high-security detention facilities, corrections officers face a highly unpredictable operational landscape. Cell extractions, contraband shakedowns, and structural pat-downs expose hands to hidden, jagged threats like hand-crafted shanks, razor blades, and broken mirrors. The TurtleSkin® NYDoCS High Cut-Resistant Corrections Gloves (NYD0 / TUS-001) are built exactly to withstand these brutal tactile environments, delivering elite, widespread laceration defense without sacrificing professional styling.

The NYD0 glove carries a historic legacy: it was meticulously developed in partnership with the New York State Department of Correctional Services to address the critical need for a tactical glove that provides uniform cut protection across the entire hand. Constructed with a premium, supple leather exterior shell, the NYDoCS glove looks like a standard uniform piece but conceals an advanced protective barrier designed to neutralize structural edges and blade slashes instantly.

Elite 360-Degree Slash Defense

Unlike standard tactical search gloves that restrict their protective linings solely to the palm side, the NYDoCS glove features an all-encompassing defensive blueprint. The patented, tightly woven protective liner lines the entire inside of the glove—defending the palm, fingertips, side panels, and back of the hand. This uniform layout ensures complete, wrap-around slice security during erratic physical altercations or blind hands-on sweeps where hand positioning cannot be controlled.

Precision Tactility for High-Stress Inspections

Achieving comprehensive cut safety often results in a rigid, clumsy glove that impedes fine motor control. TurtleSkin solves this engineering problem entirely. The internal protective weave is incredibly lightweight and thin, allowing the premium leather shell to flex naturally with the hand. Corrections officers retain the high tactile sensitivity needed to feel for paper-thin contraband, operate keys and restraints, handle communication gear, and maintain a confident, unhindered grip.

Glove Sizing Guide

To ensure proper fit, precise hand agility, and uniform coverage across your knuckles, measure your hand circumference around the knuckles (excluding the thumb). Because natural leather forms directly to your hand over time, we recommend choosing your exact size for a snug, secure fit.
