I'm seeking some weightlifting gloves. I checked at Target and they have 3 different styles - all leather grips.
I think I'd like a pair for both my husband and I. I'm searching online as we speak, but would love to hear from someone who might have a brand/style to recommend.
Thanks!

I'm looking for about the same stuff.

I'm looking for racing gloves and racing shoes.

I'm interested in this too! I am looking for essentially the same thing, only for pushing my chair.. I need them but I don't want to wear my old leather ones!!

So far I haven't been able to find vegan driving shoes, but I have managed to discover earlier this year driving gloves without leather in their construction. They are made by Sparco.

I own a pair of the Sparco Tide and they feel wonderful. The Storm wasn't available at the time I bought the Tide, but it seems to be similar. In talking to a couple of the driver I know using the Tide, they seem very pleased with it comfort and feel. Durability is still questionable, though.

Shoes are still a problem. I have noticed some older designs from the early 1980's that seem to have little to no leather in their construction, but at this point no one makes anything close.
