I find that my hands ache and sweat when I drive on long journeys so I decided to try a steering wheel cover.  I bought one from Halfords and it fitted well and felt really confortable as it made the wheel fatter, but I could not use the crooklock with it. I do not want to waste the crooklock so  I got my money back for the cover.

I then thought I would get driving gloves has anyone tried them if so what are they like and is there a good type to get.

I've used them in the past, the better ones are the thinner ones (kid leather) as you get more grip but retain feel. Best ones I ever used were a pair of pigskin ones my dad had from the 1970s - not sure they are ethical any more!

Try your local army surplus for issued pilots gloves.

If you get the right pair they are really comfortable.
Being second hand they are already broken in too.
