I'm in need of some white dressage gloves, but I really hate wearing gloves. However, I really really like my black Mark Todd MacWet Gloves:

But they don't do them in white.

Can anyone recommend a pair of white gloves that are similar? I like really thin gloves which you forget you're wearing so that I can still get a good feel down the reins. I really like the Mark Todd ones because of the mesh around the knuckles too.

Thanks

Fairly sure ordinary MacWets (not the Mark Todd ones) come in white

I didn't realise they were a brand in their own right so just looked them up...but they don't seem to have the stretchy/breatheable bit on the knuckles which I really like

Unless someone can prove me wrong?
 
They do, I only have normal MWs and they have the stretch mesh back (on the Aquatech ones).
ETA have a look at the long cuff ones, I think the picture shows it better on them.

The short cuff MWs are identical to the Mark Todd ones I think, and the Aquatech ones have the mesh back (Climatec have thicker fabric for cold weather).

Hmm the photos don't seem to have the mesh on the knuckles that I can see. But I'll definitely look into them if I don't find anything else suitable.
 
Okey dokey. Feeling helpful, I found a random odd MW in my cupboard so you can see, just in case. I only have the long cuff ones.

The best gloves I ever had in terms of forgetting you had them on were the SSG Leather Gloves, the edition they made for breast cancer ($2 per pair sold went to Breast cancer research)

they had them in white & black and were absolutely fantastic (you can't really tell from the picture, but I really felt as if I had bare hands!)
 
agree Roeckel gloves are spot on if you don't like wearing gloves. All my gloves are roeckel, you won't know you have them on. Love them

I have a pair of these as well, wonderfull to wear.

I love all my SSG gloves - but the other pairs are in black and red.

Rockel (sp) do a very nice dressage glove for about £25, but I always find with Rockel, my index fingers come through the ends
