FAQs

Are these gloves waterproof?

These gloves are not specifically designed to be waterproof. While they offer some water resistance, they are not intended for heavy rain conditions. Consider using waterproof over-gloves for wet weather riding.

How do I measure my hand for the correct size?

Measure around your palm, just below the knuckles, using a flexible measuring tape. Refer to the Alpinestars size chart to determine the correct glove size based on your measurement.

Can I use these gloves for racing?

These gloves are suitable for track day use and offer good protection. However, check with track regulations to ensure they meet the specific requirements.

How long will these gloves last?

The lifespan of the gloves depends on usage and care. With proper care, these gloves can last for several years. Regular cleaning and conditioning of the leather will help extend their life.

What kind of protection do they offer?

The gloves offer abrasion resistance from the full-grain leather, and impact protection from the polymer knuckle guard.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel too tight.

Ensure you have the correct size. Leather gloves may stretch slightly with use. Consider trying a larger size or loosening the wrist and cuff adjustments.

Difficulty using touchscreen.

Ensure your fingertips are making direct contact with the screen. Adjust the glove position for better contact. Some screen protectors may reduce sensitivity.

Stitching coming undone.

Inspect the gloves for damage. If under warranty, contact Alpinestars for repair or replacement. Otherwise, seek professional repair.
