Do any of guys use driving gloves

[J.Rizo]

You are severely underestimating how little time it takes to ruin an alcantara wheel, especially on a daily.

with that said, you might be overestimating how necessary it is to have an alcantara steering wheel on a daily;)...

Save the Alcants!

Poor little bastards, living in the same awful slaughterhouses they kept the Naugas in
back in the horrible 70's.

It's inhumane. And people made PANTS out of the Naugas...

Blech!

I know there is already a thread about driving gloves, asking others what kind they wear. But I wanted a thread to gauge the general opinion towards them. I have a BMW pair like this:
Aaaand go.

Since they are the same threads, and you acknowledged that you knew about the other one. I went ahead and merged the two threads.

Hand fedoras. You're not Ryan Gosling and you're not Steve McQueen. They just look dorky.

I wear them because I am cooler than Gosling, McQeen's got me beat though.

Also because they do keep the wear of my wheel and my car currently has no heat, but mainly because of the cool factor.

edit: I don't wear them in the summer unless I'm going for a nighttime cruse - it just gets too hot.

Only gloves I ever wear when driving is SFI rated gloves as required and because I dont want my hands all burned and crippled. ANY other time? NO, And I drive Ready-Mix for a living.
Edited: I have on occasion, worn insulated gloves. This is due to the -20 degree weather and giving the old farm truck approx 7 seconds to get up to a nice warmed up temp and taking off out the driveway late for work or going to a firecall.

Only time I wear gloves is when its below -15 up here... and only until it's warm enough to handle the wheel barehanded. Hate the feel of driving with gloves on.

[flyboyx]

if you are a race car driver, a fighter pilot, or if it just fucking cold outside. if you wear them for any other reason while driving, you are going to look like a fruitcake.

This. I only were gloves when its 10 degrees out. Like right now.

Haven't bought them yet but I think I'll go with Dents. Some old fuck told me they were good.

I can't imagine what people call you behind your back...

:???:

BMW driving gloves, they're thin and don't hamper any controls but mostly they help with the cold. The heater is meh in mine.

The only thing I have as a heater until I decide to un-bypass my heater core are my seats. :giggle:

[ahrensNW]

I'm not sold on them yet.

Side not. I think Gosling likes it up the butt, maybe uses the gloves to get a better grip on the headboard. Or other assorted "wood".

I have a set of brand new Oem seat heater pads for my vaders in my room haha. I didn't have time and didn't get the tools together to install them over Christmas break though. The way this school quarter is looking I'll probably not have time 'till summer ugh.
