Review on 🧀 Riparo Full Finger Driving Men's Accessories: Genuine Leather Gloves & Mittens by John Hickey

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Best value driving gloves

This is my second pair of Riparo. I still have my first pair of black Riparos (they are many years old now but still look good). Bought these new brown gloves when my old brown gloves (not Riparo) were completely worn out. The quality of the leather and stitching is excellent. Fit is available. The circumference of my hand is 8.5 inches and the length from the middle finger to the base of the palm is 8 inches. Riparo Medium conforms snugly to the body when new and stretches naturally for a comfortable fit. The bonus of these new brown gloves (but not shown on online images) is the extra perforation. Old black gloves have only one row of perforations on the back of the hand, running from the fingertips to the base, excluding the thumb. These new brown gloves have double rows of perforations on both the palm and back of the hand, running from the fingertip to the base including the thumb. The thickness of the leather is a good compromise between being thin enough for a comfortable tactile feel when working with the controls and thick enough not to feel fragile.
