Who cares what others think ..you’ve got the car fir yourself not to show off to others, right? Enjoy what suits you. I got pair of leather gloves too, use them all the time and I don’t drive a convertible

Do what you want, but these might be douchey around town.

I understand wearing gloves when on a racetrack. OP sounds like he is just driving around town/countryside. Wearing gloves in 100F with top down sounds uncomfortable not to mention getting tan lines around the hand/wrist as well as odd tan/sunburn spots along the knuckles if you have the fingerless version with perforations. And I myself own a pair of red driving gloves. My 2 cents.

I did a Thread on this subject a couple of years ago. Lots of replies and mixed reviews. But no funny ones like this Thread. Ended up buying some and wearing them once. If I can find them, you can have them.
