00:00 How To Wear Driving Gloves Introduction
Driving gloves are one of the most iconic accessories in menswear regularly worn during the Golden Age of Menswear and today by kings of cool like Steve McQueen, Ryan Gosling, and several iterations of the James Bond character.
But driving gloves are also notoriously difficult to wear stylishly because their niche functionality and utilitarian construction can be difficult to pull off without looking costumey.
01:41 The Origins & Functionality of Driving Gloves
Modern driving gloves evolved from driving gauntlets which were full-sized, flared leather gloves worn as a practical solution to the difficulties of early motoring.
As car technology improved, driving gauntlets became slimmed down, and more elegant driving gloves that excluded class and luxury and stylish gentlemen continued to wear them.
04:45 The easiest way to wear your driving gloves
Select driving gloves that complement your car, not your clothes because your outfits will change but your car exterior/interior probably won’t. Complementary or contrasting colors add pop and personality while still directly associating the gloves with your car.
07:38 Driving Gloves Styling Tips
In general, the more casual the look, the easier it is to wear driving gloves.
→ Full suits are usually easier to pair with day dress gloves
→ Driving gloves can be worn with more formal assembles but the key is to wear refined and sedate colors that will harmonize with the overall ensemble
→ Definitely avoid driving gloves with Formal Wear
→ Simpler to bring into an outfit with layers and some kind of outerwear
→ Overcoats, meanwhile, are better worn with dress or winter gloves
09:34 Finding the Right Driving Gloves
While all of the hallmarks of quality driving gloves can be found in our dedicated guide, we can quickly highlight three of the most important characteristics now:
→ Classic colors
→ Exceptional fit
→ Craftsmanship quality
We hope that you’ve enjoyed the video and that we’ve illustrated that while-driving gloves might be fairly niche accessories. You can definitely incorporate them into many Classic Style looks.

Two things: gloves can save your skin if you've left your car in a hot carpark. The steering wheel can become super hot and can literally burn your hands. Even if the wheel doesn't get that hot it can be too hot to hold safely when driving. Gloves can be your friend in such situations. Second, choose gloves that either have a lining, or at least have the seams and stitching turned outwards because they can be very uncomfortable if they are turned inwards and will rub against your skin.

I think of the gloves as a way to protect the alcantara and leather steering wheels in my vehicles. It helps the steering wheels stay cleaner longer and also reduce the fingerprints on the touch screen. That said, I usually use the extremely un-stylish semi-disposable cotton ones they have at the running store. I do think the traditional string back leather driving gloves look the part, however.

I like them for practical reasons. It gets deadly cold here mid winter and if you've ever tried to drive while wearing winter gloves its really not ideal, your grip and feel of the wheel and shifter is severely reduced. They might not have the insulation of proper gloves but its still better than bare skin and I can still have proper control over the car

Driving around in, and out of, Calcutta during the interminably long summer months and the even longer rainy seasons, I prefer to pull on either white or very light-hued cotton gloves - slip-ons sans buttons and/or zips. I do possess several pairs of lightweight wool gloves in brown and black as well, for the slightly cool months that pass off as winter around this part of the country.

Steering wheels used to be made out of either polished wood or metal. In order to provide better grip on those smooth surfaces (and to protect their hands if those surfaces have been sitting in the sun), drivers would wear soft gloves. Today, driving gloves are nearly a necessity for classic car owners who are trying to protect the vintage steering wheels from the oils and moisture of the driver’s bare hands. So, the “why” is: grip, protection, and style.

Came out of work one day put creame on my hands to solve the pain,grabbed the wheel and instantly slipped off,gloves made the 2 hour drive home way less painful.

I like the idea of a lighter glove for the Autumn. I'd be sold on FB driving gloves if not for two points (completely subjective) - The contrasting stitching should be less contrasty. The green pair would be well suited to navy blue contrasting stitching, and, point two, The D shaped skin gap between the cuff snaps should be smaller. The FB design is way more traditional, but doesn't seem to be cutting the cheese (for me).

Wearing driving gloves can definitely give off snobbish vibes if the car doesn't match. If you're driving around town in an automatic sedan or EV, it's a bad look. It makes it seem like you're trying to present your car as more than it really is. If you're driving a manual transmission, performance car, or you're driving for extended periods (Uber, chauffeur, bus driver, road trip, etc) then they are actually practical accessories. They make sure you maintain your grip on the wheel and the gear shifter. They protect your hands from the sun, and reduce wear and sweat/oil damage to your steering wheel
@MayTheSchwartzBeWithYou

Only use driving gloves for classic cars. Only own brown gloves.

@@gentlemansgazette it’s because of the material of the steering wheel and the circumstance of the steering wheel ring. Modern steering wheels are more sticky. I would they give to much grip.

Being a gentleman is not being pretentious. It seems like some struggle with the line between being a gentleman and being a phony. Driving gloves are unnecessary and pretentious.

I disagree. In summer when the steering wheel is hot, driving gloves can save your hands and ensure you have secure hold on a hot steering wheel.

Oh I can help everyone with this question. The answer is don’t. If you’re wearing gloves while driving and you aren’t actively driving in a nascar race…you’re doing life wrong.

If you have power steering and push to start ignition, but still feel the need to wear driving gloves, then please reconsider your life choices.

A totally useless affectation. I'm a car and racing enthusiast and don't know of any knowledgeable car guy who wears them. We wear racing gloves on the track only for safety. If you wear driving gloves, be prepared to get laughed at by other car guys.
