Reviews

Being used to leather driving

"Being used to leather driving gloves I at first glance wasn't impressed by the look or feel of the material. However, that changed when I actually put them on. They feel warm and comfortable, not too tight, though I found the gloves reluctant to be removed quickly. They grip the steering wheel very well. As it is almost winter I can't as yet vouch for their protective qualities, but I have no doubt they will perform how they feel."

Great Product

"During the summer here in the UK (amongst other times!), I've always been concerned about how brown/sunburnt my hands end up, simply due to driving. These are a godsend, as I know my hands will no longer be taking UV damage (with an added bonus of the skin not turning brown and wrinkly!). :)"

Paul R. (5/5)

Touch Points

"Great fit with the feeling of a second skin which does not interfere with the feedback a stick-shift driver needs from the steering wheel and stick-shift. A nice touch are the finger tip pads for the pointer fingers to provide a contact surface for electronic devices. Light weight with high quality seams. The super-tight weave blocks the bad stuff in sunlight without preventing moisture to escape."

Life Saver 🛟

"I live in England and only recently discovered the harmful effects of UVA rays regardless of region. I’d previously thought UVA rays affected only hot climates. Having decided to protect my hands from daily exposure especially driving and began researching, ChatGPT kindly suggested this particular brand Solbari as the number one SF50 broad spectrum protection gloves. I was initially put off by the fact that the company was based in Australia, but finally ordered a pair. They arrived after a week and the item is incredibly! They are lightweight extremely comfortable with amazing fabric and soft grips on the palm for driving. The bonus is that because they are so well designed svelte and not at all bulky and great coverage including wrists, I wear them in the streets every day with my attire and being that they are coloured black they always match my outfit, and believe me when I say I’m fashion conscious. I’ll definitely be ordering a backup pair in the near future, such an excellent product! Well done Solbari, bravo!"
