KM Elite Silicone Grip Riding Gloves - Navy
Description
KM Elite Silicone Grip Gloves - Grip, Comfort and Control in the Saddle
KM Elite Silicone Grip Gloves are showerproof, breathable riding gloves with a silicone-enhanced palm that improves rein feel and traction in wet or windy conditions. They are best for riders who want one versatile pair for schooling, hacking, groundwork and competition days rather than separate summer and winter gloves.
The lightweight stretch fabric keeps bulk down for close, natural contact on the reins, and touchscreen-compatible fingertips mean you can check your phone without removing a glove. Available in a range of sizes in navy.
Key Features
- Silicone grip palm: Silicone pattern across the palm enhances rein feel and traction, helping you maintain precise control even when hands are damp.
- Showerproof construction: Water-resistant fabric protects against light rain and spray without stiffness or bulk.
- Breathable and lightweight: Reduces heat and moisture build-up, helping to limit hand fatigue on long rides.
- Touchscreen fingertips: Use your phone or riding app on the go, gloves on.
- Stretch fit: Flexible fabric moves with the hand for a natural, low-bulk feel on the reins.
- Adjustable wrist closure: Hook-and-loop strap seals out wind and rain and keeps gloves secure.
- Versatile: Suitable for flatwork, jumping, hacking, lunging, in-hand work and yard duties.

How to Use
- Measure around the widest part of your palm, excluding the thumb, and compare with the size chart.
- Ease each glove on, working the fingers fully down before settling the palm.
- Fasten the hook-and-loop wrist strap so the glove sits secure without pinching.
- Pick up your reins and check you have full finger movement and clear contact before mounting.
- After riding, rinse off mud or sweat and dry naturally away from direct heat.
FAQ
Are KM Elite Silicone Grip Gloves waterproof?
They are showerproof rather than fully waterproof. The fabric resists light rain and spray, but they are not designed for prolonged heavy downpours.
What size riding gloves should I order?
Measure around the widest part of your palm, excluding the thumb, and check the size chart. The fabric stretches, so a snug fit is normal. If you are between sizes or wear a thin liner in winter, size up.
Can I use my phone while wearing them?
Yes. The fingertips are touchscreen-compatible, so you can check your phone or a riding app without taking a glove off.
Are they suitable for competition?
Yes, they are designed for schooling, hacking and competition. Check your discipline's rules on glove colour, as some classes specify particular colours.
How do I wash them?
Rinse off dirt and sweat and dry naturally away from radiators and direct heat. Do not tumble dry, as heat can affect the silicone palm and stretch fabric.
Are they warm enough for winter?
They are lightweight and breathable rather than insulated, so they suit year-round riding. In very cold weather many riders wear a thin liner underneath and size up accordingly.
