Why are there not any around? There are times when sniffin does not cause the offending drop to recede and the tissue box has gone for a wander out of reach. I don't want my sleeves looking like a snail racing track. Wonder if there is a patent for such?

Idea - stitch some velcro to the back of yer glove.

Then you can attach a snot rag.

Nooooo, them gloves, someone has lopped the fingers off. They are a tad shed draggers apparel....... silly

Adam, nice idea. But around here going around with velcro on gloves gets hill farmers accusing you of going equipped.....

These have a pad on the back, may need modifying to suit your needs.

Perhaps tear off strips on your sleeves like racers have on their visors. See you on Dragon's Den...Yes Duncan, I want £250,000 of your money for 5% of my Tear Off Nose Strips company which will be used to build a big garage to house my collection of TVRs I will be working on to product test the strips.

Those gloves are a bit Herman Munster. The hands don't fit the arms.......

Tear off strips, close. I was thinking if you took those gloves and added the soldering iron sponge pads there might be a winner.

Graham, nose plugs will just cause it to back up into your skull but I see you have covered that with the ear plugs wink

You want Endura Full Monty mountain biking gloves. They feel quite similar to motorsport gloves, and I use them a hell of a lot as I do a hell of a lot of MTBing.

They have a nice fat snot wipe on them too.
