Sparco Tide-K Karting Gloves — 3D-HTX grip technology, built for karting.
Sparco's Tide-K karting glove uses the same technology found in the fire-resistant Tide glove to deliver grip, shock absorption, and comfort. Constructed from a special elasticated cotton jersey fabric blend, the Tide-K excels in breathability as well as protection. The anatomically correct palm contours naturally to the shape of the driver's hand and is coated with 3D-HTX — Sparco's exclusive material that maximizes grip, absorbs vibration, and is ultra-durable. A padded knuckle area on the palm adds further hand protection. The Tide-K is finished with a comfortable pre-formed shape, external seams, and a strapless elastic wrist. Sparco's exclusive Touch-S technology on the index finger and thumb adds compatibility with touchscreen phones, dashes, and lap timers.

Good for the price
grabbed a pair for autocross. held up fine after a full season of Saturday sprint races. fingers ran a touch short for me, sized up and it fixed it. recommend for anyone starting out.

A bit pricey but worth it
wear these every race weekend. grippy on the wheel and thin enough for good feedback in the kart. does what it needs to, no complaints.

Happy with it
picked these up as my first real racing gloves. grippy on the wheel and thin enough for good feedback in the kart. not much insulation so cold mornings in the pit are rough before the first session. good entry point if you're not ready to spend big.
