Reviews

The most perfect driving gloves on the planet!

"I am petite and I did size up to a medium, in women’s gloves for more comfort. I have several pairs of black, navy, and pink. I keep two pairs in my car, a pair in my purse, and use them when I am driving, walking when it is sunny and for sure when I’m out in the boat. Highly recommend. I love the driving grips. The only thing that can be improved upon in my situation is that the grips tend to rub off on the tips of the fingers easily. Highly recommend."

Carolyn E. (5/5)

Excellent Hand Coverage

"I have fairly small hands, but these gloves fit perfectly and provide great coverage down over the wrists. The quality of the gloves feel luxurious and durable and are very comfortable to use while driving. The traction on the gloves provide great grip for a steering wheel. I love the little index and thumb finger slits for being able to use a touchscreen more easily."

Perfect Fit Driving Gloves

"I purchased these gloves in May 2026. They are well made and fit perfectly. The fabric is soft and stretches as needed and the sewing is secure. I am confident these gloves will last a lifetime."

Martha M. (5/5)

I’m very particular about sun

"I’m very particular about sun protection, and Solbari gloves did not disappoint. They’re super comfortable, not too thick, and I can wear them for hours without feeling overheated. I use them mostly for driving and being outdoors, and they’ve made a noticeable difference compared to just using sunscreen."

Comfrey and look good!

"I drive long hours & these are comfortable from start to finish. The slimming appearances of the decorative seams are a bonus. My one complaint is that the don’t slide on and off easily. A Velcro closure might help. But the grips are good and won’t slip. Overall, great gloves!"

Rachel R. (5/5)

Great idea!

"I have been worrying for ages about driving and exposing my hands to the sun (I have sunspots). I do wear suncream but hate being sticky and it stains my cream leather steering wheel. They are lightweight, unobtrusive and have little pads to use your phone. What a great idea!"

As President of a Classic

"As President of a Classic and Historic Car Club in Australia I do a lot of driving. Our conditions are harsh and Solbari driving gloves give my hands and wrists perfect protection from the damaging sun. Highly recommended!"

Rosemarie T. (5/5)

Better than expected

"Gloves have a good grip which was my first concern, they also feel cool while wearing. I keep them in the centre console and try to put them on first thing while car is warming up every time to create the habit. I have small hands and short fingers and these gloves fit perfectly for me. I can use touch screen like normal."

Rebekah M. (5/5)

Easy to slip on, good

"Easy to slip on, good grip, the colour /tone is spot on and they look good. The touch screen fingers are not that sensitive and the stitching at the top of the fingers make them a little awkward to use on the phone. In terms of measurements, my palm/hand is a small based on their guide, but I have long and slender/boney fingers so I originally bought the small then had to repurchase a medium so that my fingers fit even when the rest of the hand is slightly loose but I don’t mind so much as the small was snug in my opinion and I wanted breathability in the hot summers here in Norcal. Keep in mind if you’ve got long fingers but a small hand overall, you should just get a medium. Overall I’m quite happy with the gloves in terms of its comfort and coverage. I really do like the palm side grip it makes driving easy."

Jennifer S. (5/5)

Comfortable protection!

"These gloves are great—Very soft and comfortable. They actually make it easier to grip the steaming wheel while protecting my hands from the sun. And I have starting using them for walking or other activities outside because they are so easy to wear. They also have finger touch pads which makes it easy to use a cell phone while wearing them. Had no idea I would love them so much!"
