Product Information

Full details

The Halvarssons Hofors perforated motorcycle gloves are designed for male adult riders seeking durable, protective handwear with enhanced dexterity and touchscreen compatibility. Their key benefit lies in the combination of abrasion-resistant HI-ART reinforcements, ergonomic knuckle protection, and NUDUD® Touch screen technology. A potential caveat is that their short cuff design may offer less protection in certain riding conditions compared to longer gauntlet gloves.

FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for wet weather?

The Halvarssons Hofors gloves are perforated for ventilation, making them best suited for dry or warm conditions. While the leather offers some natural water resistance, they are not waterproof and may not perform well in heavy rain.

What makes HI-ART® technology special?

HI-ART® is a proprietary material developed by Halvarssons that significantly enhances abrasion resistance. It makes leather up to 200% stronger and textiles up to 500% stronger in exposed areas, providing superior protection against wear and tear.

How does NUDUD® Touch screen technology work?

NUDUD® is a high-precision solution integrated into the glove's fingertips that allows for seamless operation of touch screens. It enables you to use your smartphone or GPS device without removing your gloves.

What is SkinFit technology?

SkinFit is a technology used by Halvarssons to ensure the glove lining remains firmly attached to the outer shell. This prevents the lining from twisting or pulling away from your hand when you remove the glove.

Can I use these gloves for long-distance touring?

These gloves are excellent for moderate conditions and shorter rides or commutes. For very long-distance touring in varying weather, consider gloves with longer cuffs and more robust weather protection.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart, typically measured by the circumference of your palm and/or the length of your middle finger. It is recommended to try them on if possible for the best fit.

Troubleshooting

Touch screen not responding accurately.

Ensure the NUDUD® area on the fingertips is clean and dry. Try cleaning your device's screen. If the issue persists, it might be related to the specific device or screen protector.

Gloves feel stiff after drying.

Apply a leather conditioner to restore suppleness. Ensure the gloves were air-dried naturally and not exposed to high heat.

Lining feels bunched up.

This is unlikely with SkinFit technology. If it occurs, try to gently smooth it out. Ensure the gloves were put on correctly, pulling the leather over the lining.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent abrasion resistance due to HI-ART® reinforcements.
  • Enhanced dexterity and control with NUDUD® Touch screen technology.
  • Comfortable and breathable due to perforated goat leather and ventilation.
  • Secure fit that prevents lining slippage with SkinFit technology.
  • Ergonomic knuckle protection for improved safety.

Cons

  • Short cuff design may offer less protection against debris or impacts compared to gauntlet-style gloves.
  • Perforations might reduce water resistance in wet conditions.
  • Touch screen technology may have variable effectiveness with certain screen protectors or gloves.
  • Leather requires regular care to maintain its condition.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These gloves require no specific setup. Simply wear them for riding.

Compatibility: The NUDUD® Touch screen technology is designed for compatibility with most capacitive touch screens found on smartphones, GPS devices, and other electronic instruments. Performance may vary slightly depending on the device and screen protector used.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. For stubborn dirt, use a specialized leather cleaner.
  • Conditioning: Periodically treat the leather with a quality leather conditioner to keep it supple and prevent drying or cracking. Apply conditioner sparingly and buff off any excess.
  • Drying: If the gloves become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
  • Storage: Store the gloves in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
