Roll-top

The term "roll-top" (or "roll-top fingertips") refers to a specific design in the finger area of gloves. Its purpose is to provide greater wearer comfort as well as better grip and durability of the gloves. The fingertips of roll-top style gloves do not contain seams, which are mostly shifted to the sides of the fingers. These tips are thus made from a single piece of material.

The term "roll-top" (or "roll-top fingertips") refers to a specific design in the finger area of gloves. Its purpose is to provide greater wearer comfort as well as better grip and durability of the gloves. The fingertips of roll-top style gloves do not contain seams, which are mostly shifted to the sides of the fingers. These tips are thus made from a single piece of material. This solution has several advantages, including higher durability—the fact that the seams are not directly on the fingertips reduces the likelihood of wear or tearing.

Another benefit is greater wearing comfort, as fewer seams mean fewer pressure points, thus reducing the load on the fingertips, especially during all-day wear. The shape of the fingers with roll-top fingertips is simultaneously smoother, leading to better finger sensitivity and improved tactile control. Fine motor skills are thus preserved to a certain extent. The roll-top solution is often used in work gloves, tactical gloves, and models for athletes. In essence, it is utilized wherever protection, precision, and comfort are important in one.
