LeMieux Young Rider Classic Riding Gloves
The LeMieux Young Rider Classic Riding Gloves are synthetic leather all-round riding gloves in junior sizing, built from breathable anti-slip stretch material for grip and close contact feel on the reins. They are best for young riders who need one versatile glove for schooling, lessons, hacking and in-hand work, in or out of the ring.
Also known as the Pro Touch Classic glove, this new and improved version adds touch screen compatible fingers so a phone can be used without removing a glove, plus an anti-snag hook and loop closure for a comfortable wrist fit.

How to Use
- Measure around the widest part of the palm, excluding the thumb, and compare against the size chart.
- Open the hook and loop wrist closure fully before putting the glove on.
- Ease each finger in individually so the stretch panels sit flat across the knuckles.
- Fasten the wrist strap snugly, then flex the hand into a rein contact to check the fit is close but not restrictive.
- After riding, wipe clean, close the hook and loop fastening and store flat to keep the shape.

FAQ
Are these gloves touchscreen compatible?
Yes. The fingers are touch screen compatible, so a phone can be used at the yard or in the field without taking the gloves off.
What size should a young rider order?
Measure around the widest part of the palm, excluding the thumb, and check the size chart. If the rider is between sizes or has long fingers, choose the larger size — the stretch material and adjustable wrist take up any slack.
Are these gloves made from real leather?
No. They are made from synthetic leather with breathable anti-slip stretch panelling, which keeps them light, flexible and easy to wipe clean.
Can they be used for competition as well as schooling?
They are described as a classic, versatile all-round glove suitable in or out of the ring, so they work for schooling, lessons and hacking as well as smarter occasions.
How should the gloves be cleaned?
Wipe with a damp cloth and allow to air dry naturally away from radiators or direct heat. Fasten the hook and loop closure before washing or storing so it does not snag other fabrics.
Why do the gloves feel tight at first?
Riding gloves are cut close to give a close contact feel on the reins. The stretch material eases with wear, but a glove that pinches across the palm is too small.
