FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for all weather conditions?

These gloves are best suited for spring, summer, and autumn riding due to the perforated leather offering ventilation. They are not waterproof and may not provide sufficient insulation for very cold weather.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by the manufacturer. Typically, you would measure the circumference of your palm and the length of your hand. The 'L' designation indicates a Large size.

What does 'CE approved' mean for these gloves?

'CE approved' indicates that the gloves meet specific safety standards set by the European Union for protective motorcycle gloves, particularly regarding abrasion resistance, impact protection, and seam strength.

Can I wash these gloves?

It is not recommended to machine wash or immerse leather gloves in water. Cleaning should be done with a slightly damp cloth, and conditioning is essential for maintenance.

How long does the break-in period typically last?

The break-in period can vary depending on usage, but most leather gloves become more comfortable and flexible after several hours of riding. Wear them around the house for short periods to speed up the process.

What is the primary benefit of the perforated leather?

The primary benefit of perforated leather is increased airflow, which helps to keep your hands cooler and more comfortable by reducing sweat buildup, especially in warm weather.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel too tight or restrictive

Ensure the wrist and cuff straps are adjusted correctly. If still tight, the gloves may need a break-in period. For persistent discomfort, consider if the size is appropriate.

Reduced dexterity or grip

Verify that the pre-curved finger design is settling correctly. Ensure no internal seams are causing discomfort. A break-in period may improve flexibility.

Leather feels stiff after drying

Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for motorcycle gloves. Allow the conditioner to absorb, which should restore suppleness.

Stitching appears loose

Inspect the stitching carefully. Minor loose threads can often be trimmed. If significant stitching failure occurs, it may require repair or replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These gloves are designed for motorcycle riding and are compatible with most motorcycle handlebars and controls. They meet CE standards for protective motorcycle gloves.

Care: To maintain the quality and longevity of your leather gloves:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a clean, slightly damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. Avoid using harsh detergents or soaking the gloves.
  2. Conditioning: Periodically use a dedicated leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent it from drying out or cracking. Apply the conditioner sparingly with a soft cloth and allow it to absorb.
  3. Drying: If the gloves get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
  4. Storage: Store the gloves in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
