Driving glove

It is used to give a driver better control of the vehicle by enhancing grip of the steering wheel and gear stick.

Some owners of classic cars still wear driving gloves in order to protect the vintage wooden or ivory steering wheel.

True driving gloves can be identified by the fact that they offer tactile advantages to drivers handling a car near the limits of adhesion.

Driving gloves feature open knuckles and back for maximum flexibility; ventilation to reduce stress on the soft, thin leather; holes punched in fingers and palms for ventilation; short cuffs so as not to restrict movement; and a stud fastener closure on the back for proper fit around the wrist and unobstructed view of the drivers chronograph.

Racing gloves are specifically designed for increased grip and performance and protection against heat and flame for drivers in automobile competitions.
