The OMP KS-4 Art, a kart glove for indoor karting. Part number KB0-2757-A01.

Indoor leisure, not competition

No FIA or CIK homologation. These are designed for indoor karting sessions rather than for competitive outdoor events. If your series or club requires an approved glove, look at the KS-X instead.

Silicone grip palm, breathable fabric, internal stitching, mid-length cuff. The fully printed back gives a clean graphic finish without adding material bulk. The silicone design is the same pattern OMP uses on its FIA race and kart gloves, applied here at a lower price point for non-competitive use.

Size range and colours

Sizes go down to XXS, which covers younger drivers and smaller hands. Available in six colour combinations: white and blue, black and orange, red and white, fluorescent yellow and black, black and cyan, navy blue and cyan. Sizes XXS to XL.

For indoor karting sessions where gloves are optional or encouraged, these fit properly, grip well and wash cleanly.

Tell us the hand circumference and we will confirm the size. All gloves should sit snugly at the palm with no excess material.

Karting glove size guide

Kart gloves are all sold in letters, and the letters do not mean the same thing at each brand. An Alpinestars M and a Sparco XS fit the same hand. One measurement sorts it out.

Measure your palm

1Around the knucklesAcross the widest part of the palm, at the base of the fingers. Leave the thumb out.

2Loose fistClosed just enough that the hand is in a driving shape.

3Dominant handUsually the slightly bigger one, and gloves come as a pair in one size.

Your size in each brand

Palm (cm)	Numeric	Sparco	OMP	Alpinestars
18 – 19	6	XXXS	3XS	–
19 – 20.5	7	XXS	2XS	–
20.5 – 21.5	8	XS	XS	M
21.5 – 22.5	9	S	S	L
22.5 – 23.5	10	M	M	L / XL
23.5 – 24.5	11	L	L / XL	XL
24.5 – 25	12	XL	XL	XXL
25 – 25.5	13	XXL	XXL	XXL

Sparco and OMP put their letter row two steps up the numeric ladder, so their XS is a numeric 8. Alpinestars map letters straight onto it, so their M is that same numeric 8. That is why the Alpinestars column sits two letters higher all the way down.

The Tech 1-KX V4 is also sold in XS. Alpinestars publish measurements for S to XXL only, so ring us with your palm measurement for the XS rather than working it out from the S row.

Small hands and junior driversSparco and OMP go down to XXS, which is a 19 to 20.7 cm palm, and that is the smallest kart glove on the site. Alpinestars stop at S. If you are buying for a child measure first, because below about 19 cm none of these will fit properly and we would rather tell you that before you order.

How a kart glove should fit

Tight, with no slack in the palm

Any spare material rolls up under your hand on the rim and you lose feel through the wheel, which is the whole point of wearing them. Slightly tight when new is usually right. Leather and suede give a little over the first few sessions; a knitted or stretch fabric glove does not, so buy that one to fit on day one.

Wet weather gloves go over nothing

The Sparco K-Tide, OMP Rain-K and Alpinestars Tempest are wet gloves worn on their own, not over a dry pair. Size them the same as your normal gloves rather than going up.

Standards

FIA 8877-2022 is the current kart clothing standard. Gloves marked Non-CIK or Non-FIA are practice, wet weather or arrive-and-drive gloves. Both appear in this category, so check the approval on the product if you are running in a championship.

Have you written anything about this exact product?
Yes, we have covered this exact product: Discover the Latest OMP KS-4 Kart Suit for 2026. That is first-hand coverage from our own builds and showroom, not brochure copy.

What size should I order?
Sizes run from XXS to XL. Measure around your palm at the knuckles and go snug: kart steering is all feel, and loose material between you and the wheel costs grip. Junior sizes are in the range for young drivers, and we will happily confirm sizing from a measurement.

Are they legal for competition karting?
These gloves are not homologated for competition karting, which makes it the right price for practice, corporate events, and rental driving, but not for club or championship racing. If you race, look at the FIA 8877-2022 items in the range.

What makes a kart glove different from a race glove?
Grip and abrasion rather than fire. Kart gloves put silicone or reinforced material on the palm for an unassisted wheel and are built to survive contact with tarmac, while car racing gloves are fire-resistant and FIA 8856 homologated. Our racing gloves guide covers the car side if you need both.
