rather than dropping your phone all the time and having smelly feet, why not get botox treatments?

the best gloves IMO are karting gloves, they have rubber soles and are not the flame retardant material that most driving gloves are, so they are much more comfortable

Haha -- does botox even work for hyperhidrosis?

But good tip on the karting gloves. I'll definitely have to give those a shot.

... one of my faves

Anyways, these are my longtime favorites.
I like the feel of gloves on a steering wheel. There are many excellent gloves for racing that have good grip, fire retardant, and comfortable. For road cars, there is an innumerable selection. I like the Italian made gloves sold by Outlierman... a very nice selection.

Here's something a bit different. I have like 3 or 4 pairs for all my cars and even my sim PC wheel. I wanted something very thin and simple and breathable. Also the logo you see on them in the photo isn't actually there. They also have different material on the index and thumb for capacitive screen usage and and are very gripy on the palm. There is some kind of rubberized pattern? Hard to explain. I will post photos when I get home. Everyone I have shown them to loves them and they are cheap. I have a pair of Loro Piana driving gloves that was a gift. They don't get touched.

Are people using gloves with Alcantara? I love the feel of my naked hands against an Alcantara wheel. However, looks like I may need a pair for the GT3T

It works if you're driving a 550 Spyder.
