Default Can someone suggest a SEAMLESS glove?

My G-Force gloves are getting old and I wanted to replace them with some type of SEAMLESS racing glove. I would prefer a short cuf.
What gloves have you been very happy with?

Never heard of "seamless" but the Sparcos with the seams on the outside are nice. I wish I had bought mine a size larger, though. Most of the wear and tear comes from taking them off after my hands are hot and sweaty...

I've heard the new Oakley gloves feel great, but I have not tried them.

I have the same kind (FAST TECH). Stitching is outside, better this way!
Sparco has a bunch of new gloves out. So check em out.

Are you serious?!?! Did you really just put a pic of a latex glove in this post?!?!?!

That doesn't look like anything I would wear to grip my suede wheel while racing?!

Did I miss something, or am I the target of yet another cruel H-T.com joke?
Was seamless the wrong way to refer to it?
Or was I misunderstood that I wanted gloves for RACING, not working on the RACECAR?!
Now I am lost? I feel like I am on a Milwaukee SCCA SOLO2 course with the sun in my eyes........

Whats wrong with the g-force gloves? If you dont like them, the puma (long) ones are nice. Pretty cheap too.

This is my 3rd season using them. They have just seen better days.....
And to add they ARE NOT as comfortable as I would like them to be. I have NO POWER STEERING in my car so gloves are very important.

I don't think there's any such thing as gloves (or clothes for that matter) made without seams. Think about it. You're using two-dimensional matterial (cloth) to make a three-dimensional object that has curved surfaces. Unless you like Spandex or Latex clothes (not that there's anything wrong with that...) I don't think you'll ever find gloves like that.

Outside seamed would be the correct way to refer to them....
I just htought I saw a company advertise seamless, they were probably just Outside seamed.

I could not be happier with my OMP Gran Premio (Hey, if they are good enough for Schmacher......) The palms have limited suede on the palms, only where you need it, makes them cooler than most other gloves I have tried.

I wasn't sure how much I would like wearing gloves for HPDEs, so I bought a set of K1 gloves from ebay with the stitching on the outside for $40 shipped, and I think they're very good for the money. I hope this link works:

Edit: The title says Karting gloves, but they are SFI rated (3.3/5 SFI rating)
(when I bought it last year they had a separate one for Karting)
