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:
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.

Land vs. Land+: What Changed?
The standard Sparco Land uses suede grip material across the palm and fingertips. The Land+ replaces that traditional treatment with printed silicone, creating a more modern and aggressive grip surface.
Both gloves retain an ergonomic palm, reinforced stitching, elastic wrist support, and certified competition protection. Drivers who prefer a tackier steering-wheel connection will generally favor the Land+.
