Driver Equipment

For simracing I need only 2 pieces of equipment :

  • gloves because with the powerfull DD wheel you need a good grip, also you don't want to ruin the alcantara on your wheel with sweaty hands.
  • Shoes, good driving shoes, with a good grippy shoe sole to avoid slipping on the pedals, also improve comfort for heal & toe.

For gloves I bought some Seibertorn racing mountain bikes gloves, because proper driving gloves are expensive and design to protect against fire, so they are also to warm. The grip is very good and they are not getting my hands too warm.

For the shoe I bought some OMP Kart racing shoe, same than for the glove they are not too warm and the sole grip is good. I was a bit mistaken on the color when ordering them I though there would be more black on the shoes. But I don't use them outside and I play on VR, so I don't really care about the color.
