Motorsports gloves

Hi people,

What is the most important thing to look at when purchasing a high quality glove?

[breakaway500]

A good fit. No matter what protection level of glove you choose..it should be comfortable. ( Not to mention color coordinated... )

Consider the grip material on the glove vs whatever steering wheel(s) you have. Some gloves are slippery on some wheels.

Orange. I want to see your signals.

After buying a set of dark driving gloves I really see the importance of this

[SEISAN]

The most important thing is that they are smaller than your hands.........

So that if you have to go to court...and they do not fit, then you must aquit

Now I think it's corny but I could not pass it up with all the humor that's get added in the forums.

Do not try on a pair of externally stitched driving gloves. You will never want to take them off.

Interesting...I'm in the market for some new gloves and am going to try some externally stitched ones. These SFI 5 rated (3.3/5) gloves are externally stitched and quite affordable… ebay-> http://www.ebay.com/itm/K1-Pro-X-SFI-5- ... xqv7J6PsIQ

I have a couple pairs of these. They fit really well, have a nice tack field in the palm for the steering wheel, and the white across the fingers has a good contrast.

Thanks for reply. What about suede grip? I've seen a pair with 100% suede on the palms, they looked very good.
