One thing you should notice with the HDM gloves is the extra layer of leather around the thumb and first finger. This provides extra grip and more wear resistance. Most manufacturers sew a single layer of leather on palm side of the glove only.
As mentioned above these gloves are SFI certified 3.3/5 (OK for Nascar and most racing uses). If you plan to use these gloves for drag racing, you will need to check with your sanctioning body to ensure the SFI 3.3/5 rating is enough.
Don't be fooled by other companies claiming to have SFI certification. Unless the company is listed on SFI's website as a manufacturer, their gloves are not certified to be constructed to SFI specifications and will not give you the protection you require. Feel free to check out the credentials of HDM Company... Click on "manufacturers" on the home page and then on 3.3 to see the list of official SFI manufacturers.
Check our other listings...We also offer non-nomex gloves that are great for use in Karting and other applications not requiring a fire resistant glove.
You will find the quality of these gloves to be equal to or better than Simpson and other popular brands on the market.
