SSG Winter Gripper Style 5050 Riding Gloves
The SSG Winter Gripper Style 5050 is a fleece-lined knit cotton riding glove with a pimple grip palm, designed to keep hands warm and secure on the reins through the winter. It suits riders and yard staff who need an economical everyday glove for schooling, hacking, lunging, in-hand work and mucking out in cold or wet conditions.
Reinforcement in key wear areas adds durability where gloves usually fail first, and the hook and loop wrist tab lets you adjust the fit and keep draughts out. Best for riders who want warmth and grip without the bulk of a heavy winter glove.

How to Use
- Measure around the widest part of your palm, excluding the thumb, and compare with the size chart.
- Open the hook and loop wrist tab fully before putting the glove on.
- Ease the glove over the hand and settle the fingers fully into the tips.
- Fasten the wrist tab so the glove is secure but not tight across the wrist.
- Check the pimple palm is clean and free of mud or grease before riding, as this affects grip.
- After use, allow the gloves to dry naturally away from direct heat.
FAQ
Are these gloves warm enough for winter riding?
Yes. They are fleece lined with a knit cotton outer, which makes them suited to cold-weather riding, schooling and yard work. They are a mid-weight winter glove rather than a bulky insulated one, so rein feel is retained.
What size should I order?
The knit cotton has natural stretch and fits closely. Measure around the widest part of your palm, excluding the thumb, and check the size chart. If you are between sizes, or you wear a thin liner underneath, size up.
Do they grip well in wet weather?
The pimple palm is designed to give grip in all weather, including damp conditions. Keeping the palm free of mud and grease helps maintain that grip.
Can I use them for yard work as well as riding?
Yes. They are reinforced in key areas, which makes them practical for mucking out, grooming, leading and general stable duties as well as riding.
How should I care for them?
Dry naturally away from direct heat. Do not dry on a radiator or heat source, as this can harden the knit and the grip palm. Close the wrist tab before washing so the hook and loop does not snag the fabric.
Are they suitable for men and women?
Yes, the style is unisex and is sized by hand measurement rather than by gender.
