Jack Hudspith and Ben Pawle’s Cycling Glove Features a Smiley Face

These gloves are absolutely adorable. From dezeen:

Architect Jack Hudspith and product designer Ben Pawle have created a cycling glove with a smiley face on each side, to encourage road users to communicate with each other better.

On the back of each glove is a reflective face, for increased visibility day and night, while a cushioned smiley face covers the palm.

It is hoped that waving a glove with a smiley face will help solve flare-ups of road rage, which the designers describe as “an incredibly complex issue with no easy solutions.”

Called Glove, the product is launched under the brand name Loffi, set up by Hudspith and Pawle after they graduated from Glasgow School of Art.

The cycling gloves are designed to be worn year-round, and are water-repellant, windproof and warm, but also breathable.
