Has anyone tried the Alpinestars Tech-1 ZX V4 Gloves yet? I ordered a pair of the red gloves, and they should be arriving tomorrow. Did this for a couple reasons.

1. Visibility for other drivers.
2. They say they are touch screen compatible.
3. Identity (The color differs from what @Club Version and Gridzilla use.

If they are touch screen compatible that would be awesome!

Here's their little blurb:

• External seams prevent pressure points and provide superior comfort to the driver.
• Pre-curved fingers and palm help improve fit and reduce fatigue while driving.
• Outer grip zones for superb control and feel of the cockpit’s controls.
• Ergonomically designed 3D grip technology on palm and fingers with strategically positioned silicone surface patterning for improved flexibility and control.
• Touchscreen compatible.

I don’t know which model my Alpine gloves are but they are definitely not touchscreen compatible.

My yellow ones definitely were not touch screen compatible.

In my experience, external seams feel good on your hand but are less durable. The exposed edges of the fabric start to fray earlier whereas internal seams protect the edges.

I have a pair of AlpineStars gloves with internal seams and I love them. They fit me really well.

I had a pair of Sparco external stitched that lasted 10 years, and still good, so I still use them on the sim

These gloves are awesome! I can confirm that they are indeed touch screen compatible!
