Prototyping Driving Gloves

This video shows the processes involved in making Mark 1 of a driving glove design. These are imperfect versions with some details that will be changed or improved. They were made for a specific customer’s hand size. Driving gloves are usually unlined, light gloves with perforations on the top panel for air circulation. Good grip on the palm side is important. Generally driving gloves have a top vent - an opening at the top side of the glove held closed with a buttoned strap. It’s normal to find larger holes located at the knuckles - as driving gloves are used predominantly with the hand made into a fist while at the wheel, these holes are meant to reduce strain. Later on this year, we are hoping to release a range of glove making kits, including a kit for driving gloves. Please feel free to subscribe so that you can hear about it before everyone else.
