Description
The RaceQuip 355 Series auto racing gloves are designed for drivers who demand a balance of high-level fire protection and superior tactile feel. These gloves are constructed from a soft, double-layer knit Nomex, allowing them to meet and exceed SFI 3.3/5 standards. The standout feature is the high-grip black suede reinforced leather palm, which provides a premium, non-slip connection to the steering wheel for improved precision during high-speed maneuvers.
RaceQuip has engineered these gloves with driver ergonomics in mind; the knuckle pads and palm reinforcements are attached to the Nomex backing in a specific way that promotes maximum hand flexibility and dexterity. To combat the rigors of racing, extra leather reinforcement has been added to the high-wear area between the index finger and the thumb. The 355 Series is finished with a standard length gauntlet and a hook-and-loop adjuster strap on the back to ensure a secure, customized fit.

Important Safety Information
While Nomex is a premier fire-retardant material, all racing safety gear is technically "fire retardant" rather than "fireproof." These RaceQuip 355 Series gloves are essential safety equipment intended to provide a critical thermal barrier. To ensure the highest level of safety, verify your measurements against the official RaceQuip sizing chart to confirm that a Medium is the correct fit for your hands, as a snug fit is vital for both safety and control.
