Let’s Give a Hand to These Fantastic Equestrian Gloves

Wednesday, July 1st, 2009

Atlas Nitrile gloves are an innovative hand protection solution featuring uniquely designed palms coated in Nitrile.  Nitrile is a synthetic polymer that forms a natural bond with the knit liner.

In contrast to a stitched on palm liner, this one is much more durable as well as flexible for enhanced dexterity.  It can also get soaking wet without stiffening or getting dried out.  Try that with a conventional leather glove!

For a more upscale and luxurious looking option, consider Good Hands Close Touch Pro Riding Gloves.  This glove model is constructed of rich goatskin and will deliver an incredibly sensitive feel.  This is the closest touch you’ll find aside from bare hands.  They’re snug, durable and carefully stitched to hold up for many shows to come.

Another great synthetic option is the Chester glove from Roeckl.  This model is super light and very form fitting.  It’s made of Vesta synthetic leather for increased sensitivity on the reins and a hard to beat grip.  The synthetic material is color fast dyed so they’re safe to throw in the washer and a tape tab let’s you adjust the ideal custom fit.
