Uvex Vida Planet Gloves

Uvex Vida Planet Gloves 

Riding through the muggy British summer usually means dealing with a combination of intense sun and sudden downpours, which quickly leaves your hands sweaty and your reins incredibly slick. These lightweight summer gloves solve that frustrating problem by combining a highly slip-resistant palm with a flexible backhand that keeps your hands cool when the temperature spikes. The palm material is engineered to hold its grip even when it gets soaked by a sudden storm or covered in horse foam, ensuring you maintain a secure connection without having to shorten your reins every two minutes. Because the fabric blocks harmful UVA, UVB and UVC rays, your skin stays protected during long afternoons spent hacking or working in the outdoor arena. 

What makes these stand out on the yard is that they are built with over 55% recycled components, including nylon on the back of the hand and an abrasion-resistant material made from recycled water bottles on the palm. They do not feel stiff or bulky like traditional synthetic gloves; instead, the high-end stretch fabric moulds neatly around your fingers and keeps its shape after weeks of hard wear. Extra reinforcement panels are stitched over the thumb and index finger where the rein naturally rubs, preventing the friction from wearing holes through the fabric. When they get covered in stable dust or sweat after a long schooling session, you can just toss them in the washing machine to restore their tacky grip. 

Vida Planet Gloves Features: 

• Uses highly abrasion-resistant fabric repurposed from plastic bottles to provide a firm, dependable hold on the reins in wet or dry conditions. 
• Recycled nylon backhand provides a lightweight, highly breathable layer over the knuckles to let heat escape and keep your hands dry. 
• Filters out harmful UVA, UVB and UVC rays to protect your skin during long summer show days and sunny hacks. 
• Features double-layer fabric overlays on the thumb and index finger to stop leather or rubber reins from wearing down the seams. 
• Adapt naturally to the unique shape of your fingers and knuckles without stretching out or becoming baggy over time.
