The back of the hand and the palm are made in ROECK-GRIP®, the same material as in the classic ROECK-GRIP, and Roeckl lists the model as touchscreen compatible with an easy closure at the cuff. At Maddelin in five colour combinations, in sizes 6 to 8.5 with half sizes.
About these riding gloves
The Lona is the model for riders who want the ROECK-GRIP feel in a glove that looks different. Roeckl lists exactly the same material for the Lona as for the classic ROECK-GRIP: ROECK-GRIP® on the back of the hand and ROECK-GRIP® in the palm. Roeckl describes that material as stretchy and says it provides the grip on the rein. It is, however, a material name and not a fibre declaration; the manufacturer does not publish fibre percentages, and the composition is on the label inside the glove.
The difference from the basic model lies in the size range and the finish. Roeckl places the Lona in its women's line and makes it from size 6 to 8.5, whereas the ROECK-GRIP runs up to size 11. If your hand is larger than size 8.5, the Lona is not an option and you will end up with the ROECK-GRIP. The versions are two-tone: at Maddelin these are black with white, black with gold, navy with white, navy with pink, and brown with gold, which Roeckl itself calls mocha with gold. Roeckl's range also includes black with red and viola; those two are not part of Maddelin's range.
Roeckl lists two features. The glove is touchscreen compatible, so your screen responds through the fabric and you can keep your gloves on for a phone call at the yard. And there is an easy closure at the cuff, the quick fastening that secures the glove around the wrist. Roeckl lists no silicone grip for the Lona; for the Weldon it does, as SILICONE-GRIP.
For the competition arena, there is one point to watch with a two-tone glove. Gloves are compulsory in dressage: internationally in white, off-white or the colour of your jacket, and Paardensport Vlaanderen specifies white, buff or the colour of the jacket. Those lists name colours, not colour combinations. Whether a glove with contrasting colour panels falls within them is not stated: put the question to your federation before you enter the dressage arena, or choose a plain model for the test. In showjumping and cross-country there is no colour requirement and gloves are not compulsory, but they are permitted. In driving they are compulsory, for the groom as well. Under the LRV they are optional, with white preferred in dressage. Rules differ by federation, discipline, level and country and change regularly, so check the current rules of your own federation before you enter.
Where the Lona is at home without reservation: daily training, lessons, hacks, jumping and work around the yard. In its sizing advice, Roeckl itself writes that a riding glove should fit like a second skin, because you hold the rein with sensitivity. Roeckl lists no lining for the Lona, so for the coldest months look at the ROECK-GRIP WINTER or the Weldon.
