Sparco Racing Gloves?

Sorry if this is the wrong forum, but I'm planning on doing an open-wheel track day later in the summer and want to buy some gloves...

Sparco Lands are inexpensive and good-looking, I'm wondering if anyone here has experience with them or their sizing.

Thanks,

d.

I went from sparco to oalkley gloves. oakley was much better, and sparcos fall apart quickly from my experiences.

You get what you pay for. They don't last long or breathe well. OK for weekend warriors.

Check the rules in your area, we had to switch from leather palm gloves to Nomex palm for fire reasons, I think it was a SCCA directive but not sure

No experience with Sparco but can highly recommend OMP. I had a pair of Challengers for over 4 years of heavy track use, washed after every weekend and just now need replacement. My wife just got me some Stand 21's, extremely nice but very expensive.
