FAQs
Are these gloves compatible with all steering wheels?
Yes, they are designed to work with all standard sim racing steering wheels, regardless of whether they are covered in leather, Alcantara, or rubber.
Can I use these for normal driving?
While they provide great grip, these are specifically engineered for gaming/sim racing and are not rated as safety equipment for real-world automotive use.
How do I remove the fingertips?
The thumb and index finger tips are designed to be folded back over themselves; you can simply roll the fabric cap back to expose your fingertip.
Are they machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the specialized materials. Hand washing is recommended to preserve the life of the product.
Do these gloves come in different sizes?
Yes, the Hypergrip range is available in various sizes to ensure a 'second-skin' fit, which is crucial for maximizing tactile feedback.
Will these help with hand sweating?
Yes, the micro-perforated microfibre palm is designed specifically to allow airflow, which significantly reduces perspiration compared to bare-handed gaming.
Troubleshooting
Touchscreen sensitivity is unresponsive.
Ensure your fingertip is clean and the glove is pulled fully down toward your finger base to ensure contact with the conductive material.
Velcro strap keeps loosening.
Clean the velcro surface of any lint or fibers using a small brush or a piece of tape to restore its sticking power.
Palm grip feels slippery.
Wipe the rubberized coating with a slightly damp cloth to remove accumulated skin oils or dust that can reduce friction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, ensure the velcro wrist strap is tightened just enough to prevent the glove from rotating on your hand without restricting blood flow. The gloves are compatible with almost all PC, console, and mobile gaming hardware. To maintain the grip quality and hygiene of your gloves, wipe them down with a damp cloth after particularly long sessions. If they become heavily soiled, hand wash them in cool water with mild detergent and allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can degrade the rubberized palm coating and the integrity of the touch-sensitive fingertips.
