What makes Foxgloves Equisport unique?
The first thing you will notice is their form fit and comfortable feel. The fabric that we use is a Supplex® nylon/Lycra® spandex blend that is soft yet extremely durable and offers complete protection. Foxgloves provide excellent feel on the reins, are tough enough for everyday use and stylish enough for the show ring.
Why fabric instead of leather?
The lightweight fabric allows complete flexibility and barehanded sensitivity for optimum feel on the reins. Finger reinforcements and hundreds of grip dots assure a secure grip, even in wet conditions. The tight knit and longer length prevent dirt from penetrating. Foxgloves Equisport will not stiffen up or crack like leather.
Why is there no wrist closure like most riding gloves?
The slim, stretchy fit makes putting your gloves on easy and comfortable, with no buckles or Velcro to fumble with or catch hair and dirt. It’s a smooth, sleek profile.

What other riders think about FoxglovesWhy are they longer than other gloves?
The longer length protects wrists and eliminates unsightly gaps between sleeve and glove. It’s also great for protecting watches and jewelry from scratches and dirt.
Are they riding gloves or work gloves?
Both! Foxgloves Equisport are the only gloves designed to be suitable for all your horse-related activities: mucking, grooming, tacking up and of course riding or driving.
Why don’t I just buy those gloves that sell for $5.00?
Because they are made of cotton, which wears out after one month’s use and don’t fit very well. Foxgloves are made of DuPont Supplex® nylon, a performance fabric tested and known for its durability and abrasion resistance. Lycra® spandex provides the added stretch for a comfortable custom fit that you will never find in a cotton glove. And the fabulous colors make them fun to wear!
How long will they last?
These gloves will last as long as leather gloves. This fabric is used in athletic apparel and tested for ruggedness. Reinforcements prevent excessive wear between rein-holding fingers.
Are they hot to wear?
No. The fabric used in our gloves is very light and breathable.
Will dirt go through the fabric?
No. Foxgloves tight knit and brushed surface prevents soil from penetrating the cloth so your hands and nails stay clean. Even riding and working in wet conditions, your hands are still protected. And when you are finished you can wash them under the tap or in the machine and you will find your gloves soft and clean, ready for you to wear again and again.
How do they perform in wet conditions?
Foxgloves are not waterproof—they are water resistant and will not retain water like cotton or leather—so you can continue to work and ride in them in wet conditions without compromising the quality of the fabric or your hands. When wet, water wicks away quickly and does not compromise your dexterity or grip.
Do they come in sizes?
Form fitting Foxgloves Equisport come in three unisex sizes:
Small fits glove size 6—6½ for petite and short fingered hands.
Medium fits gloves size 6½—8, for most hands.
Large fits glove size 8½ and over.
How do I clean them?
Foxgloves easy care makes them ideal for everyday use. They can be rinsed under the faucet for light everyday washing. We recommend machine washing regularly to remove ground-in dirt and insure longevity. Machine dry on low or hang to dry.
