OMP ONE EVO FX Gloves
The OMP ONE EVO FX Gloves are professional-level racing gloves developed for drivers who demand precise steering feedback, dependable grip, and lasting comfort during demanding competition. Their advanced pre-curved shape supports a natural driving position, helping reduce material bunching and unnecessary hand fatigue during extended sessions.
Lightweight honeycomb fabric promotes airflow throughout the glove, while strategically positioned silicone grip zones improve steering control without sacrificing sensitivity. External finger seams reduce pressure points, and the internally stitched thumb provides refined feel when operating steering-wheel buttons, rotary controls, and paddle shifters.
Ergonomic Construction for Natural Steering Control
The ONE EVO FX is shaped around the position a driver’s hands naturally assume on the steering wheel. Its pre-curved fingers and palm reduce resistance when closing the hand, allowing the driver to maintain a secure grip with less effort.
This ergonomic construction minimizes excess material across the palm and fingertips, helping preserve tactile feedback while reducing fatigue during long races, endurance stints, and repeated high-load steering inputs.
Directional Silicone Grip Zones
Strategically arranged silicone sections provide traction where the glove makes the most contact with the steering wheel. The directional grip pattern helps resist unwanted hand movement during cornering, braking, and rapid steering corrections.
Rather than covering the entire palm with a heavy reinforcement layer, the focused silicone layout maintains a direct connection with the wheel and preserves the sensitivity needed for precise vehicle control.
External Finger Seams for Reduced Pressure
External seams move potentially irritating stitching away from the inside of the fingers. This construction reduces pressure points and improves comfort during extended periods behind the wheel.
The smoother internal finger area also helps the glove conform more closely to the hand, limiting distractions caused by bulky seams or excess material.
Internally Stitched Thumb for Enhanced Feedback
The thumb uses an internal seam configuration to improve sensitivity and control around modern steering-wheel equipment. This construction gives the driver a more precise feel when using push buttons, switches, rotary controls, and paddle-shift systems.
Combining external finger seams with an internally stitched thumb allows OMP to optimize different areas of the glove for their specific driving functions.
Breathable Honeycomb Fabric
Lightweight honeycomb fabric across the outer glove encourages airflow and helps manage heat inside the cockpit. The breathable construction is especially beneficial during endurance competition, warm-weather events, and long sessions where moisture buildup can affect comfort.
The flexible material follows the hand through repeated steering movements without creating unnecessary stiffness or bulk.
Slanted Elastic Cuff
An elasticated cuff keeps the ONE EVO FX securely positioned throughout the session. Its slanted wrist opening follows the natural angle of the forearm, making the glove easier to put on while creating a comfortable overlap with compatible racing-suit sleeves.
The streamlined cuff eliminates the need for a bulky external adjustment strap and maintains a clean, competition-focused fit.
FIA 8856-2018 Homologated Protection
The OMP ONE EVO FX Gloves are homologated to the FIA 8856-2018 standard for fire-resistant driver clothing. This certification makes them suitable for many professional, amateur, and club-level motorsport events requiring current FIA-approved racing gloves.
Drivers should confirm the specific safety-equipment requirements of their racing series or sanctioning organization before competition.

Silicone rubber imprints across the palm provide dependable grip and control on the steering wheel. The strategically positioned grip surface helps reduce unwanted hand movement while allowing the driver to maintain accurate steering input with less gripping pressure.
This improved traction can help reduce hand fatigue and preserve consistent control during endurance events, sprint races, qualifying sessions, and performance track driving.
External Seams for Maximum Steering Feel
The ONE EVO FX uses externally sewn seams to move bulky stitching away from the inside of the fingers. This creates a smoother interior surface and helps reduce uncomfortable pressure points.
External seams also allow the glove to feel thinner around the steering wheel, improving feedback, dexterity, and precision during critical braking, cornering, and shifting maneuvers.
Elastic Wrist Stop for a Secure Fit
An elastic wrist stop helps keep the glove securely positioned without restricting movement. The close-fitting wrist design provides reliable comfort during extended driving sessions while making the glove easy to put on and remove.
The streamlined wrist construction also helps maintain dependable overlap between the glove and the sleeve of a compatible racing suit.

A unique elastic cuff system provides secure racing-suit overlap without the bulk of a traditional wrist closure. Hybrid finger stitching places external seams along the palm side of the fingers for comfort, while internally stitched upper sections help protect the seams from wear.
The anatomically shaped palm follows the natural contour of the hand, while smooth printed silicone provides dependable grip, steering sensitivity, and dexterity. The Sparco Lap is approved to FIA 8856-2018 and SFI 3.3/5 standards.
Unique Elastic Cuff System
The Sparco Lap features an elastic cuff designed to provide a secure and comfortable fit around the wrist. The streamlined construction allows the glove to overlap properly with the sleeve of a compatible racing suit while reducing unnecessary bulk.
This cuff design also makes the gloves easy to put on and remove between sessions. It was developed to coordinate particularly well with the Sparco Competition racing suit.
Pre-Curved Hybrid Finger Construction
The fingers feature a pre-curved shape that follows the natural position of the hand around the steering wheel. This reduces resistance through the fingers and helps the driver maintain a relaxed grip during long racing sessions.
Sparco uses a hybrid stitching design that combines external and internal seams. The palm side of each finger uses external stitching to move seam pressure away from the inside of the hand. The upper side uses traditional internal stitching to help protect the seams from abrasion and wear.
External Palm-Side Seams
External seams along the palm side of the fingers create a smoother interior surface. This helps reduce pressure points while gripping the steering wheel and improves comfort during extended driving sessions.
The construction also provides a close, responsive feel when operating paddle shifters, steering-wheel buttons, switches, and other cockpit controls.
Internally Stitched Upper Fingers
The upper sections of the fingers use internal stitching to help protect the seams from direct contact and abrasion. This provides additional durability without sacrificing the comfort benefits of external seams along the palm side.
The result is a balanced construction that delivers both comfort and dependable resistance to repeated racing use.
Anatomically Shaped Palm
The Sparco Lap has an anatomically correct palm that follows the natural contours of the hand. This shape helps keep the glove properly positioned while gripping the steering wheel and reduces excess material that could interfere with steering feedback.
The ergonomic design improves dexterity and helps the driver maintain precise control during braking, cornering, shifting, and rapid steering inputs.
Smooth High-Grip Silicone Palm
Smooth silicone grip material is printed directly onto the palm to improve traction against the steering wheel. The low-profile surface provides dependable grip without adding unnecessary thickness between the driver's hands and the wheel.

Sparco Futura Racing Gloves
The Sparco Futura Racing Gloves combine certified fire-resistant protection, dependable steering-wheel grip, and Sparco Full Efficiency regenerated fabric technology. Designed for competitive auto racing, the Futura offers a comfortable anatomical fit with breathable construction and hybrid finger stitching.
The fingers use a combination of internal and external seams to balance durability with interior comfort. A printed silicone palm provides secure steering-wheel traction while preserving the sensitivity and dexterity required for precise vehicle control.
Available in four colorways and sizes 8 through 13, the Sparco Futura is approved to FIA 8856-2018 and SFI 3.3/5 standards.
Sparco Full Efficiency Regenerated Fabric
The Sparco Futura is constructed with Sparco Full Efficiency fabric, a regenerated textile technology developed to reduce manufacturing waste while maintaining the performance required for motorsport use.
Excess textile material that would normally be discarded is recovered and processed into regenerated fibers. Sparco then uses proprietary spinning and weaving techniques to create new racing apparel materials within a more controlled production cycle.
The Full Efficiency program targets a minimum of 51 percent regenerated material within applicable production while preserving the comfort, protection, and durability expected from Sparco racing equipment.
Breathable Upper Construction
A breathable upper helps manage heat and moisture inside the glove during demanding driving sessions. The flexible construction allows the glove to move naturally as the driver grips and releases the steering wheel.
This combination of airflow and flexibility helps improve comfort during qualifying laps, sprint races, endurance events, and extended track sessions.
Hybrid Finger Stitching
The Sparco Futura uses hybrid finger stitching that combines internal and external seams. External stitching is placed in areas where interior seam pressure could affect comfort, while internal stitching helps protect selected seams from abrasion and wear.
This construction creates a close, responsive fit while helping reduce pressure points around the fingers during prolonged steering-wheel contact.
Printed Silicone Palm Grip
Printed silicone across the palm provides dependable traction against the steering wheel. The low-profile grip surface improves control without adding unnecessary thickness between the driver's hands and the wheel.
Enhanced palm traction allows the driver to maintain control with less gripping pressure, which can help reduce hand fatigue during longer races and repeated driving sessions.
Anatomical Racing Fit
The Sparco Futura follows the natural shape of the hand for a close, ergonomic fit. Its streamlined construction reduces excess material while supporting the dexterity needed to operate paddle shifters, steering-wheel buttons, switches, and other cockpit controls.
