Description
The RaceQuip 355 Series auto racing gloves are engineered for drivers who require maximum fire protection without compromising on tactile feel and steering control. These professional-grade gloves are constructed from a soft, double-layer knit Nomex, meeting the rigorous SFI 3.3/5 safety standards. The centerpiece of the 355 Series is the high-grip black suede reinforced leather palm, providing a superior, non-slip connection to the steering wheel for precision handling during intense competition.
Ergonomics and durability are at the forefront of this design. The knuckle pads and palm reinforcements are meticulously attached to the Nomex backing to promote natural hand flexibility and dexterity. To ensure a long service life, RaceQuip has added extra leather reinforcement in the high-wear zone between the index finger and the thumb. Each glove features a standard length gauntlet and a secure hook-and-loop adjuster strap on the back to provide a tailored, stay-put fit.

Important Safety Information
While Nomex is a high-performance fire-retardant material, all racing safety gear is technically "fire retardant" and not "fireproof." These RaceQuip 355 Series gloves are critical safety equipment designed to provide a vital window of protection in the event of a fire. For the highest level of safety and control, ensure you verify your hand measurements against the official RaceQuip sizing chart to confirm that an X-Large is the appropriate fit.
