Equestrian gloves may seem like a small accessory, but they play a significant role for riders. Their primary function is to protect the rider's skin and ensure a secure grip on the reins during horseback riding. Additionally, they prove beneficial in adverse weather conditions.
While they may appear similar to regular gloves, equestrian gloves are designed with special features. They incorporate inner reinforcements, such as leather inserts, to enhance durability and prevent tearing. Unlike conventional gloves, equestrian gloves have velcro closures placed on the back of the hand. The material used in making these gloves must allow for unrestricted movement of the fingers. They are commonly crafted from leather, synthetic materials, or premium leather-like materials that fit snugly like a second skin. For stable chores and easy cleaning, we recommend neoprene or rubber gloves, which effectively protect against various types of dirt.
