Sparco Land Martini Racing Nomex Gloves
The Sparco Land Martini Racing Nomex Gloves celebrate one of rally racing’s most recognizable partnerships. Their period-inspired design recalls the historic Sparco and Martini Racing equipment used during the golden era of international rally competition, while updated materials and current FIA homologation make them suitable for modern motorsport.
Embroidered Sparco and Martini Racing patches give the gloves an authentic heritage appearance. An ergonomic palm, reinforced stitching, suede grip surfaces, and elastic wrist support provide the control and comfort required for competitive driving.
Available in Navy or Red, the Sparco Land Martini Racing glove is designed for drivers who want classic motorsport character without giving up contemporary fire-resistant protection.
Historic Martini Racing Design
The Land glove recreates the clean, understated appearance of vintage Sparco racing equipment associated with Martini Racing. Period-correct embroidered patches preserve the traditional look more effectively than modern printed graphics.
The result is a glove that complements historic race cars, rally-inspired builds, vintage racing suits, and drivers who appreciate authentic motorsport heritage.
Updated for Modern Competition
Although the styling is inspired by earlier generations of Sparco equipment, the construction has been updated to meet current performance and safety expectations. Modern fire-resistant materials and FIA 8856-2018 approval provide protection suitable for many present-day racing environments.
This combination of vintage appearance and current homologation allows drivers to maintain a period-correct look without relying on outdated protective equipment.
Ergonomic Palm Construction
The palm follows the natural position of the hand around the steering wheel. Reinforced stitching helps the glove maintain its shape while reducing excess material and bunching in high-contact areas.
The shaped construction supports more consistent steering feedback and improves comfort during repeated steering inputs, gear changes, and extended driving sessions.
Suede Grip Surfaces
Suede material across the palm and fingertips improves traction against the steering wheel. The textured surface provides a secure, traditional grip while preserving the tactile feedback many drivers prefer from a classic racing glove.
Additional fingertip grip also improves control when operating switches, steering-wheel buttons, shifters, and other cockpit equipment.
Reinforced Stitching
Reinforced seams support the areas exposed to repeated flexing and steering-wheel contact. The durable construction helps the glove retain its fit and performance through regular racing use.
The stitching is positioned to complement the ergonomic palm design while maintaining the clean appearance associated with vintage motorsport equipment.
Elastic Wrist Support
An elasticated wrist helps hold the glove securely in place without requiring a bulky external strap. The streamlined closure supports comfortable overlap with the sleeve of a compatible racing suit.
The elastic wrist also allows quick entry and removal between sessions while maintaining a close fit during competition.
FIA 8856-2018 Approved
The Sparco Land Martini Racing Gloves are approved to the FIA 8856-2018 standard for protective clothing used in automobile competition. This homologation combines modern fire-resistant protection with the glove’s heritage-inspired appearance.

Sparco Arrow+ Nomex Racing Gloves
The Sparco Arrow+ Nomex Racing Gloves combine lightweight comfort, advanced grip technology, and updated fire-resistant protection for demanding motorsport competition. Developed as the next evolution of the popular Sparco Arrow glove, the Arrow+ meets the latest FIA 8856-2018 requirements while retaining the close fit, precise steering feel, and flexibility drivers expect from a premium racing glove.
A Sparco-exclusive HTX palm provides exceptional grip and dexterity, while pre-curved fingers and external seams reduce bunching and pressure points. Touch-S technology on the thumb and index finger also allows drivers to operate compatible touchscreen devices without removing their gloves.
Updated FIA Fire and Heat Protection
The Sparco Arrow+ has been engineered to meet the updated FIA 8856-2018 homologation standard, which requires increased heat and flame protection throughout the glove.
This enhanced protection has been achieved without sacrificing the lightweight construction, flexibility, and steering-wheel sensitivity that made the original Arrow glove a popular choice among professional and club-level drivers.
Sparco HTX Palm Technology
The palm and fingers feature Sparco's exclusive HTX grip material. This patented surface is strategically positioned to increase steering-wheel grip, comfort, and dexterity while maintaining precise feedback from the car.
HTX material helps reduce unwanted hand movement on the steering wheel, allowing the driver to maintain accurate control without applying excessive gripping pressure. The result is improved confidence during braking, cornering, shifting, and other critical maneuvers.
Padded Palm for Reduced Fatigue
Integrated padding across the palm helps absorb steering-wheel vibration and shock loads. This additional support can reduce hand fatigue during long stints, endurance events, and extended track sessions.
The padding is designed to provide extra comfort without creating unnecessary bulk or reducing steering-wheel sensitivity.
Pre-Curved Finger Construction
The Arrow+ uses pre-curved fingers that follow the natural shape of the hand while gripping the steering wheel. This design reduces excess material and bunching around the fingers, helping minimize pressure points.
The anatomically optimized shape improves dexterity and allows drivers to operate paddle shifters, steering-wheel buttons, switches, and other cockpit controls with greater precision.
External Seams for Superior Comfort
Externally stitched finger seams move bulky stitching away from the inside of the glove. This creates a smoother interior surface and provides a closer, more comfortable fit.
A unique internal thumb seam further improves comfort and steering-wheel feel, making the Arrow+ especially well suited for long races and extended driving sessions.
Touch-S Touchscreen-Compatible Fingertips
Sparco Touch-S technology places fire-resistant, touchscreen-compatible material on the thumb and index finger. This allows drivers to operate compatible data-acquisition displays, mobile devices, and lap-timing applications without removing their gloves.
The touchscreen functionality adds convenience between sessions while maintaining the protective construction required for auto racing.
Ultra-Lightweight Construction
The Sparco Arrow+ is designed to provide high levels of protection without excessive weight or bulk. Its lightweight materials allow the hands and fingers to move naturally while maintaining a close connection with the steering wheel.

Sparco Land+ Racing Gloves | FIA & SFI
$139.00
Sparco Land+ Racing Gloves
The Sparco Land+ Racing Gloves build on the proven comfort and value of the original Land glove with a redesigned silicone grip system for greater steering control and feedback. Printed high-grip silicone across the palm and fingertips improves traction without adding excessive bulk between the driver and the steering wheel.
An ergonomic palm shape follows the hand’s natural driving position, while reinforced stitching supports durability through repeated steering inputs and long race sessions. The elasticated wrist keeps the glove securely positioned and allows quick entry and removal.
Available in Black, Blue, Red, and Yellow, the Sparco Land+ combines updated grip technology, straightforward comfort, and dual FIA and SFI competition approval.
Upgraded Grip Over the Original Sparco Land
The primary difference between the Land+ and the standard Land glove is the palm treatment. Instead of traditional suede grip surfaces, the Land+ uses printed high-grip silicone across the palm and fingertips.
This low-profile silicone pattern increases traction against the steering wheel while preserving the sensitivity needed to feel changes in steering load, tire grip, and vehicle response.
Silicone Fingertips for Precise Cockpit Control
Silicone grip extends onto the fingertips to improve control of paddle shifters, steering-wheel buttons, switches, and gear levers. The added traction helps reduce unwanted finger movement during rapid shifts and aggressive steering corrections.
Because the silicone is printed directly onto the glove, it provides grip without the bulk of a separate reinforcement layer.
Ergonomic Palm Construction
The palm is shaped around the natural position of the hand when gripping a steering wheel. This design helps reduce material bunching and keeps the glove aligned through braking, cornering, shifting, and repeated directional changes.
Reinforced stitching supports the high-contact areas of the palm and helps the glove maintain its shape during regular competition use.
Direct Steering Feedback
The Land+ is designed to provide secure traction without isolating the driver from the wheel. Its streamlined palm construction allows steering vibration, resistance, and load changes to remain easy to feel.
This combination of grip and sensitivity helps the driver maintain control with less squeezing pressure, which can reduce hand fatigue during longer sessions.
Elastic Wrist for Quick Entry and Secure Retention
An elasticated wrist holds the glove firmly in place without requiring a separate adjustment strap. The flexible opening makes the glove easy to put on and remove while maintaining a close fit once worn.
The streamlined wrist also provides clean overlap with the sleeve of a compatible fire-resistant racing suit.
Four Competition Colorways
The Sparco Land+ Racing Gloves are offered in four bold color options:
Black
Blue
Red
Yellow
Each colorway uses the same ergonomic palm design, printed silicone grip, elastic wrist, and certified protective construction.
FIA and SFI Approved Protection
The Sparco Land+ is approved to the FIA 8856-2018 standard and carries SFI approval for competition use. Its dual certification makes it compatible with many racing organizations that require approved fire-resistant driver gloves.
Drivers should confirm the exact certification required by their sanctioning body before competition.

Suede Anti-Slip Palm and Fingertips
Updated suede grip material is strategically positioned across the palm and fingertips. The textured surface improves traction against the steering wheel without creating a thick barrier between the hand and the controls.

Sparco Land Classic Nomex Racing Gloves
The Sparco Land Classic Nomex Gloves bring traditional motorsport styling to a modern, competition-approved racing glove. Based on Sparco’s proven Land platform, the Land Classic uses vintage-inspired Cream and Navy colorways while retaining the fire-resistant protection, steering feedback, and secure fit required for current racing environments.
An ergonomic palm follows the natural position of the hand around the steering wheel, while reinforced stitching supports durability in high-contact areas. Updated suede grip material across the palm and fingertips improves traction without adding unnecessary bulk between the driver and the wheel.
Approved to both FIA 8856-2018 and SFI 3.3/5 standards, the Sparco Land Classic is a practical choice for drivers who prefer understated heritage styling over modern graphic-heavy glove designs.
Vintage Colorways with a Competition-Ready Construction
The defining feature of the Land Classic is its restrained, period-inspired appearance. The Cream and Navy color options complement historic race cars, vintage-style driving suits, restoration projects, and classic motorsport liveries without looking like a costume or replica accessory.
Beneath the traditional color palette is a fully modern protective glove engineered for sanctioned auto racing. This gives drivers the look of earlier motorsport equipment with the certification and construction expected from current Sparco safety gear.
Ergonomic Palm Designed Around the Steering Wheel
The palm is shaped to conform to the hand’s natural driving position. This reduces excess material when the fingers are wrapped around the steering wheel and helps the glove remain properly positioned during braking, cornering, and repeated steering corrections.
Reinforced stitching supports the palm structure and helps maintain the glove’s fit through regular use. The result is a stable, responsive connection between the driver and the wheel.
Updated Suede Grip at the Palm and Fingertips
Sparco redesigned the grip surfaces with suede anti-slip material across the palm and fingertips. The textured suede provides dependable traction while preserving the tactile feedback many drivers prefer from a traditional racing glove.
Fingertip reinforcement also improves control when using switches, paddle shifters, steering-wheel buttons, and gear levers. Unlike thick rubberized overlays, the suede grip maintains a soft, natural feel.
Elastic Wrist for Simple, Secure Retention
An elasticated wrist holds the glove securely in place without requiring an external strap or bulky closure. The streamlined design allows quick entry and removal while maintaining dependable overlap with a compatible racing suit sleeve.
The elastic wrist also helps accommodate a wider range of hand shapes, contributing to the Land Classic’s comfortable and familiar fit.
Accessible Performance for Club and Professional Drivers
The Land Classic is positioned as an entry-level competition glove, but its construction includes the essential features drivers depend on: certified fire resistance, a shaped palm, reinforced stitching, suede grip, and a secure wrist.
Its straightforward design avoids unnecessary layers and complex closures, making it a strong value for drivers who want certified protection and clear steering feedback in a classic-looking glove.
Dual FIA and SFI Certification
The Sparco Land Classic Nomex Gloves are approved to FIA 8856-2018 and SFI 3.3/5 standards. Carrying both certifications makes the glove suitable for a wide variety of racing organizations and competition formats.
Drivers should verify the exact glove standard required by their sanctioning body before participating in an event.
