Description
The Roeckl Lusita is a riding glove that Roeckl describes for summer conditions: SUPREMA by ROECKL on the back of the hand, ROECK-AIR on the palm and an easy closure with Swarovski crystals around the wrist. Roeckl places the model in its ladies' line, lists COMFORT-CUT and states it as touchscreen compatible. At Maddelin in black, in sizes 6, 6.5 and 7.5.
About these riding gloves
At Roeckl, the Lusita is a glove with two different materials. The back of the hand is SUPREMA by ROECKL — Roeckl describes its appearance as a nappa leather look — and the palm ROECK-AIR. Roeckl lists ROECK-AIR not only as the palm material but also separately as a feature of the glove — it is the zone where the rein runs. What the execution involves exactly, Roeckl does not document further; both names are the brand's material names and not a fibre specification.
Roeckl lists no lining for this model and no ROECK-PROOF® back of the hand either. Roeckl itself describes the Lusita for summer conditions: a glove for spring, summer and mild autumn days, not for cold weather. If you are looking for a glove for January, you will end up with the Jineta or the Julia. The Jineta has a ROECK-PROOF® back of the hand that Roeckl calls windproof and an EVO Lining, the Julia a ROECK-PROOF® Ural back of the hand and a laminated palm.
The cut is the COMFORT-CUT, which Roeckl also lists for the Jineta and the Weldon, among others. Roeckl gives no explanation of what exactly that cut changes. The Lusita itself is in Roeckl's ladies' line and runs in sizes 6 to 8.5 — a narrower range than the ROECK-GRIP, for example, which goes up to size 11. If you are above size 8.5, a model from the ROECK-GRIP® line makes more sense.
What stands out on the Lusita is the fastening. Roeckl works Swarovski crystals into the easy closure around the wrist, a decorative detail on the fastening itself. The fastening secures the glove around the wrist. Roeckl also lists the Lusita as touchscreen compatible, so you can use your phone with the glove on.
Maddelin carries the Lusita in black; Roeckl makes the model in two colourways, mocha antique and black stonewashed. Black is a usable colour in the competition arena as soon as your jacket is black, and in the eventing dressage test black is explicitly permitted.
A riding glove should fit closely; Roeckl itself writes that its riding gloves should fit like a second skin, because holding the rein requires sensitivity of touch. For care, Roeckl's brand-wide guideline applies: a delicate cycle or 30 °C, no fabric softener, no tumble dryer and dry flat at room temperature.

When to choose this product
Who it is for and when. For the rider looking for a glove for summer conditions, with the precise rein contact Roeckl describes for this model, and who does not mind a visible finishing detail. Spring, summer and mild autumn days, in training as well as in competition, and not tied to one discipline.
What sets the Lusita apart from the other Roeckl models at Maddelin. The Lusita combines SUPREMA by ROECKL on the back of the hand with a ROECK-AIR palm, and Roeckl puts Swarovski crystals on the fastening. The Malta has one material, ROECK-GRIP® on the back of the hand and the palm, and comes in a two-tone version at Maddelin. The Laila 2 has suntan™ Mesh on the back of the hand with a MICRO-AIR palm. The Jineta has a ROECK-PROOF® EVO Denali back of the hand that Roeckl calls windproof, with EVO Lining of 90 g/m²; the Julia is the winter version with ROECK-PROOF® Ural and a laminated ROECK-GRIP® palm. In short: Roeckl describes the Lusita for summer conditions, the Jineta and the Julia are the winter models.
Each discipline has its own rules. In dressage, gloves are compulsory: internationally in white, off-white or the colour of your jacket, and under Paardensport Vlaanderen in white, buff or the colour of the jacket. A black glove therefore falls within that rule as soon as your jacket is black. In the eventing dressage test, black is explicitly permitted, whatever the colour of your jacket. In showjumping and cross-country, gloves are not compulsory but are permitted, and there is no colour requirement. In driving they are compulsory, for the groom as well, which is straight away a reason to have a second pair. Under the LRV they are optional, with white preferred for dressage. Rules differ by federation, discipline, level and country and they change regularly: check the current rules of your own federation.
Fit
Maddelin carries three sizes: 6, 6.5 and 7.5. Size 7 is not among them. If you measure around 18.9 cm, you are between the two sizes Maddelin carries and are best off comparing them on your hand. Roeckl makes the model up to 8.5.
You measure the circumference around the knuckles with a loose fist, thumb not included; divided by 2.7, that gives the size. About 16.2 cm corresponds to 6, 17.6 cm to 6.5 and 20.3 cm to 7.5.
The Lusita has Roeckl's COMFORT-CUT and an easy closure with Swarovski crystals on it. According to the manufacturer's feature list those crystals are on the fastening. What COMFORT-CUT changes about the cut, Roeckl does not document; the sizes remain a guideline and the glove should fit like a second skin.

Expert advice
Measure your hand before choosing a size. The range at Maddelin runs from 6 to 7.5 without size 7, so if you fall between 6.5 and 7.5, it is better to measure the circumference around your knuckles first than to order by feel.
Keep this pair for the riding season in which your hands do not get cold. Roeckl states no lining for the Lusita and describes it for summer conditions; for winter, keep a separate winter model alongside it.
Treat the crystals on the fastening as what they are: a finishing detail. Always undo the fastening before you pull the glove off. If the fastening is hook-and-loop, close it neatly before you wash the gloves. Wash them in a laundry bag, as Roeckl advises across the brand, without fabric softener, and lay them flat to dry rather than hanging them over a radiator.
If you ride dressage, it is the colour of your jacket that decides whether black works. If in doubt, take a pair in a colour the rules allow, such as white, as a spare. In FEI dressage, entering the arena without gloves costs a small deduction per judge, not elimination.
Use & care
Roeckl describes this model for summer conditions: SUPREMA by ROECKL on the back of the hand and a ROECK-AIR palm, with no lining listed by Roeckl. After a warm training day, let the pair dry in the open instead of leaving it in the saddle bag.
The Swarovski crystals need attention when washing. If the fastening is hook-and-loop, close it neatly first, and use a laundry bag, as Roeckl's brand-wide guideline says. Preferably pull the glove off by the cuff rather than by the crystal-set fastening.
Briefly, the rest: do not turn inside out, delicate cycle or 30 °C, no fabric softener, no tumble dryer, dry flat at room temperature. Roeckl gives no model-specific instructions — the label inside the glove is the source, and machine washing assumes that it says machine washable.
Frequently asked questions
Where are the Swarovski crystals?
On the easy closure. Roeckl lists the feature as an easy closure with Swarovski crystals; the manufacturer does not give any other location.
Can I simply wash the Lusita with those crystals on it?
With the label machine washable in the glove, yes: if the fastening is hook-and-loop, close it neatly first, put the pair in a laundry bag and wash on a delicate cycle or 30 °C without fabric softener. No tumble dryer.
Which season is this model intended for?
Roeckl describes the Lusita for summer conditions and states no lining. For the cold months, the Jineta and the Julia are the winter models at Maddelin.
Which materials does Roeckl use?
SUPREMA by ROECKL on the back of the hand, ROECK-AIR in the palm. Those are material names, not compositions; Roeckl does not publish fibre percentages for any model, and the label inside the glove states them.
What is COMFORT-CUT?
The cut Roeckl lists for a number of models, including this one. Which adjustments it covers, the manufacturer does not document.
Size 7 is not in the range — what then?
Maddelin carries 6, 6.5 and 7.5. If you measure around 18.9 cm, you are between 6.5 and 7.5: try both. Roeckl makes the model in sizes 6 to 8.5.
Is black allowed in a dressage competition?
Internationally the dressage rule is white, off-white or the colour of your jacket, under Paardensport Vlaanderen white, buff or the colour of the jacket: with a black jacket, black is therefore fine. In the eventing dressage test, black is explicitly permitted. Rules differ by federation, discipline, level and country and change regularly, so check the current rules of your own federation.
Does the glove work on a touchscreen?
Yes, Roeckl explicitly states this for the Lusita.
