FAQs
What is the primary material of the Alpinestars Aragon Gloves?
The gloves feature a stretch fabric construction for lightness and breathability, with a synthetic suede palm for abrasion resistance.
Are these gloves suitable for winter riding?
These gloves are best suited for mild to warm weather conditions due to their focus on breathability. They may not provide adequate warmth for cold winter riding.
How do I clean my Alpinestars Aragon Gloves?
Clean gently with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals and air dry away from direct heat.
What does 'stretch fourchette' mean?
The fourchette refers to the fabric panel located between the fingers. The stretch version enhances flexibility and breathability in this area.
Are these gloves suitable for men and women?
While this specific description notes 'Male' in the variant attributes, Alpinestars often offers unisex versions of their gloves. Please check specific product listings for gender-neutral options.
How durable is the synthetic suede palm?
The synthetic suede palm is designed for enhanced abrasion resistance, offering good durability for regular motorcycle use.
Can I use these gloves with my smartphone?
These gloves do not have specific touch-screen compatible fingertips, so you may need to remove them for precise interaction with smartphones or GPS devices.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel too tight/restrictive
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If new, the gloves may need a short break-in period. Stretch fabric can slightly adapt over time.
Reduced grip on handlebars
Check that the synthetic suede palm is clean and free from dirt or grease. Ensure the gloves are properly fitted and not slipping on your hands.
Excessive sweating inside the gloves
While designed for breathability, in very hot conditions, consider using a thin liner or ensuring adequate airflow from your riding gear.
