Product Information

Full details

The Knox Handroid MK5 motorcycle gloves are engineered for serious road and track riders who demand elite-level impact protection and a precision fit. Featuring the signature exo-skeleton spine design and advanced Micro-Lock Scaphoid Protection, these gloves provide unparalleled security for the hands during high-speed maneuvers. While they offer industry-leading safety tech, their specialized design and rigid structural elements may require a break-in period for riders accustomed to lightweight, unarmored textile gloves.

FAQs

Are these gloves waterproof?

The Handroid MK5 is designed primarily for impact protection and track performance and is not marketed as a waterproof glove.

How do I operate the BOA system?

Push the dial in to engage the lacing, turn clockwise to tighten, and pull the dial out to release the tension fully.

Can I use these for daily commuting?

Yes, their durable construction and high level of comfort make them excellent for frequent riders who prioritize safety.

What does the Scaphoid Protection System do?

It adds sliders to the palm of the glove to ensure your hand slides across the surface during a crash rather than gripping it, which helps prevent scaphoid fractures.

How should I clean the leather?

Use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging in water or using detergents that can compromise the leather's integrity.

Troubleshooting

BOA dial feels stiff or hard to turn

Ensure there is no dirt or grit inside the dial housing; blow out any debris with compressed air.

Gloves feel overly stiff when new

This is normal for high-protection leather; wear the gloves for short periods at home to flex the leather and break in the exo-skeleton spines.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Class-leading impact protection through exo-skeleton design
  • Precision fit via the reliable BOA closure system
  • Patented scaphoid protection minimizes injury risk
  • High-grade, durable 0.8mm drum-dyed leather
  • Low-profile cuff design fits well under or over jacket sleeves

Cons

  • Requires a break-in period for optimal comfort
  • More rigid feel than standard textile gloves
  • Professional-grade features come at a higher complexity

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your Handroid MK5s, place your hand in the glove and turn the BOA dial clockwise until you feel a firm, secure fit around the wrist. The dial can be pulled outward to release tension instantly. For compatibility, the slim-line LDPE cuff is designed to sit comfortably against most motorcycle jackets, though it is best worn tucked under if your jacket cuffs are narrow. To maintain your gloves, use a damp cloth to wipe down the leather periodically. Never use harsh chemical cleaners, as these can strip the leather of its natural oils. If the gloves become saturated, allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from hardening.
