Product Information

Full details

The RST Freestyle 3 D3O Motorcycle Gloves are designed for adult motorcyclists seeking a balance of high-impact protection and everyday comfort. These gloves excel by integrating advanced D3O armour that remains flexible during normal use but hardens instantly upon impact, providing superior safety without bulk. While they offer excellent abrasion resistance and tactile feedback for city or touring riding, riders should note that the integrated carbon fibre knuckle protection may feel slightly rigid until the leather properly breaks in.

FAQs

Are these gloves waterproof?

No, these gloves are crafted from leather and are not waterproof. They include perforations for airflow, so they are best suited for dry or mild weather conditions.

How do I know what size to choose?

RST sizing generally follows standard hand measurements. We recommend measuring the circumference of your dominant hand at the widest point (excluding your thumb) and comparing it to the manufacturer size chart.

What does CE Level 1 KP certification mean?

This indicates the gloves have been independently tested and meet European safety standards for impact attenuation and abrasion resistance specifically for motorcycle use.

Can I wash these in a washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the leather, the D3O armour, and the structural integrity of the stitching. Always hand clean with a damp cloth.

Is the carbon fibre knuckle protector removable?

No, the carbon fibre knuckle protector is integrated into the structure of the glove to ensure it stays in the correct position during an impact.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel stiff when new

Leather gear requires a break-in period. Wear them for short rides to allow the leather and motion panels to soften and mold to your specific hand shape.

Touchscreen fingertips are unresponsive

Ensure the conductive leather patch is making full contact with your screen and that your screen is free of thick protective glass that may hinder touch sensitivity.

Wrist closure not staying secure

Check the hook and loop fasteners for lint or debris build-up. Use a stiff brush to clean the fasteners to restore their original grip strength.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Certified CE Level 1 KP impact protection
  • Highly responsive D3O armour technology
  • Excellent abrasion resistance via double-layered palms
  • Convenient touchscreen compatibility
  • Comfortable fit with pre-curved finger construction

Cons

  • Carbon fibre knuckles require a break-in period for optimal comfort
  • Perforations may allow water entry during heavy rainfall
  • Primarily designed for fair-to-mild weather, lacking heavy thermal insulation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your RST Freestyle 3 gloves last, begin by checking the fit. The leather should feel snug but not restrictive; motion panels should allow full finger extension. If the gloves feel too tight across the knuckles, wear them indoors for short periods to allow the leather to stretch and conform to your hand shape.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the exterior leather with a damp cloth to remove road grime and bugs. Do not submerge the gloves in water.
  • Conditioning: Apply a leather-specific conditioner periodically to prevent the leather from drying out and cracking.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight, which can fade the material and compromise leather integrity.
  • Compatibility: These gloves are designed to be worn under or over most jacket cuffs, utilizing the hook and loop closure for a secure, custom fit.
