Description
The RaceQuip 359 Series double-layer outseam gloves represent the pinnacle of driver comfort and safety, incorporating the same "reverse seam" technology used in elite-level racing like NASCAR, IndyCar, and IMSA. By placing the seams on the outside of the glove, RaceQuip has eliminated the internal ridges that can cause irritation, providing the driver with an unparalleled "feel on the wheel."
Constructed from two layers of high-quality knit Nomex®, the 359 Series exceeds the SFI 3.3/5 rating. These gloves feature a specialized extra-long, angle-cut gauntlet designed to provide maximum fire protection overlap with suit sleeves. The palms are reinforced with high-grip, supple black suede leather for superior vibration dampening and steering control. With mitered fingers for an anatomical fit, these gloves ensure precision during high-stakes maneuvers.

Important Safety Information
Hand and forearm protection is a critical element of the driver safety system. While Nomex is a high-performance fire-retardant material, all racing safety gear is "fire retardant" rather than "fireproof." These RaceQuip 359 Series gloves are designed to provide a vital window of escape time in the event of an emergency. For the best performance, please verify your hand measurements against the official RaceQuip sizing chart to ensure an X-Large is the correct fit.
