Sparco Italy K-TIDE+ 8877-2022 Karting Gloves – Engineered for Grip and Protection

The Sparco Italy K-TIDE+ 8877-2022 Karting Gloves are crafted to provide karting drivers with optimal feel, grip, and protection on the track. These gloves are not just an accessory; they are a critical component of your racing gear, designed to improve your connection with the steering wheel and enhance your control.

Detailed Appearance of the Gloves

These gloves feature a striking design combining white, black, and orange. The back of the hand is predominantly white, adorned with dynamic black and orange graphic accents, including a prominent stylized "S" logo and the "sparco" brand name near the wrist. The thumb also carries vertical "SPARCO" branding. The fingertips on the back are solid white, with the index finger featuring subtle black numbering or lettering. In contrast, the palm side is primarily black, designed for maximum grip. It is covered with multiple raised, textured pads, likely made of rubberized or synthetic materials, strategically placed across the fingertips (index, middle, ring, and pinky), thumb, and the base of the palm. The wrist cuff on the palm side features quilted padding with visible stitching, adding to both comfort and a secure fit. Visible stitching throughout the glove outlines the individual finger segments and structural panels, highlighting the detailed construction. The glove has an elongated form, extending beyond the wrist, with a snug contour that follows the natural shape of the hand. The materials clearly differ between the smooth, matte finish of the backhand and the textured, high-friction surfaces of the palm.

Performance-Driven Features

Engineered for the demands of karting, these gloves incorporate features designed to elevate your performance:

• Superior Grip: The textured palm, featuring strategically placed grip pads, provides exceptional contact with the steering wheel, allowing for precise control.
• Extended Wrist Coverage: The elongated cuff offers additional protection and support to the wrist and lower forearm.
• Pre-curved Fingers: While not explicitly visible in the photos, the design suggests a natural curvature to minimize material bunching and enhance comfort when gripping the wheel.
• Durable Construction: Visible stitching and reinforced areas on the fingertips and palm indicate a focus on longevity and resistance to wear and tear in high-stress areas.
