1. Durable polyester fabric | 1. Relatively less padding. |
2. Extremely lightweight | 2. Little protection from splinters and sharp objects |

On top of that, the fingerless design also makes it easy to wipe the sweat from your brow without wetting the gloves. The Special Ops Look Assault Gloves (S.O.L.A.G.) is a good option to use for Parkour especially if you can’t afford the higher end and expensive options. These gloves are said to be perfect for women as they are small enough to fit the smallest of hands. Let’s explore who these gloves are suitable for:
Grip
Many Parkour participants need a lot of grip during their drills. If you are one of them, then these gloves are not for you. These Seibertron gloves are for participants who do not rely on needing grip for their excursions. The polyester material makes it difficult to provide grip and traction. It does provide good wrist support with a clamping strap.
Comfort
The Seibertron gloves are extremely comfortable. The polyester fabric feels light on the hands and eliminates sweating as well.
Flexibility
The Seibertron gloves provide for greater flexibility due to its fingerless design. This design combined with the lightweight polyester material makes it feel more like gym gloves rather than Parkour gloves.
Protection
The only protection provided by these Seibertron gloves is the padding above the fingers. However, due to the fingerless design, there is little protection offered in case of a fall. Also, barriers provided by the Parkour courses can cause damage to your fingers as well.
Verdict
Although these may not be perfect gloves for Parkour, it is a comfortable pair to have around. It is ideal for use on smooth surfaces or in the heat. However, these gloves may not be best for heavy Parkour workouts but still they are a good choice available in the market. Available in five standard sizes, it is handy for other sports that are not rigorous and merciless to your hands.
