Driving Gloves

[Muncher]

I need to buy some Sparco/OMP style gloves but I'm not succeeding on 2 fronts.

I can't find any shops which sell them so I can actually try them on.

Also the likes of Demon Tweaks don't seem to offer any discount. I don't buy anything at RRP, ever.

I've got a vague idea of the ones I want, but what do you people have?

What do you mean you dont buy anything at RRP?
Jesus mate, you cant be that tight fisted.

Of course I buy some things at RRP, like sandwiches or things which only costs a few quid, but almost everything significant I buy is either reduced or the best price I can get.

You don't get rich by giving your money away

Driving gloves are a bit 'poofy' but I would love a pair of Lamborghini Racing Gloves... linky.

Not when you drive with the roof off in winter when it is freezing like today.

Not when you do quite a few trackdays.

Not when you use them for Karting regularly too

Something like the OMP Pole Position ones

It's great fun with the roof off. Even at this time of year it comes off quite a lot.

It's not about what they look like, I don't drive it round at this time of year to pose, if anything I'd be past people before they even noticed who was driving let alone whether I was wearing gloves!

Today was ok, temperatures of about 1 degree, hat on, coat and scarf on, just my hands freezing cold. The heater doesn't really make much difference and at anything more than 20mph is fighting a losing battle.

I need some gloves to keep my hands from freezing, I also need some for karting and if they're any good I could always use them on track.

i understand why the roof off, was a gorgeous day just a bit cold. but tbh those long gloves look ridiculous on the road.

im looking for some nice leather / wool driving gloves myself.

I want them long so I can tuck the end bits under my sleeves.
