Description
The RaceQuip 359 Series double-layer outseam gloves are designed for elite tactile performance and maximum fire safety. By utilizing an "outseam" or reverse-seam construction, RaceQuip has moved the stitching to the exterior of the glove. This design choice eliminates internal ridges and pressure points against the fingers, providing the superior "feel on the wheel" demanded by professionals in NASCAR, IndyCar, and IMSA.
Constructed with two layers of premium knit Nomex®, the 359 Series exceeds the SFI 3.3/5 rating to provide a substantial thermal barrier. These gloves are equipped with an extra-long, angle-cut gauntlet that ensures a safe, overlapping fit with your race suit sleeves for comprehensive forearm protection. The palms are reinforced with high-grip, supple black suede leather for maximum steering control, while mitered fingers ensure a precise, anatomical fit.

Important Safety Information
In professional motorsports, hand and forearm protection are essential components of the driver's safety cell. While Nomex is a premier fire-retardant material, all racing safety gear is "fire retardant" rather than "fireproof." These RaceQuip 359 Series gloves are specialized safety equipment designed to provide a critical window of escape time in an emergency. To ensure the highest level of safety and control, please verify your hand measurements against the official RaceQuip sizing chart to confirm that an X-Large is the correct fit for your hands.
