How do I choose the right size karting glove?

Measure the circumference of your hand around the knuckles (excluding the thumb). Karting gloves should fit snugly without restricting movement. Use the OMP sizing chart linked above for accurate measurements. When in doubt between two sizes, size up for comfort during longer sessions.

How do I care for karting gloves?

Hand wash in cold water with mild detergent and air dry. Avoid machine washing, bleach, and high-heat drying, as these can degrade the synthetic materials and reduce the lifespan of the gloves.
