REVIT REDHILL LEATHER GLOVES
These Redhill gloves are the perfect blend of vintage style and top-spec technical performance. The high-quality leathers used in their construction, including goatskin, water-resistant suede, and cowhide, provide a strong and durable base. The block printing on the gloves adds an old-school touch, while the perforated goatskin leather between the fingers helps to keep your hands cool and comfortable. The gloves also feature a brushed finish on the palms and inner thumbs for extra grip, as well as a water-resistant finish to give a coarser texture at the points of contact.
But these gloves offer more than just good looks - they also provide excellent protection. The compact Temperfoam® lining the hard-shell armour on the knuckles, fingers, and palms is renowned for its impact-absorbing and self-contouring properties. So, if you're out for a summer ride on your motorcycle, these gloves have got you covered.
PANDO MOTO ONYX GLOVES
These sleek perforated riding gloves from Pando Moto are perfect for keeping your hands cool on hot summer rides. Crafted from premium 0.8mm cowhide and featuring ventilation throughout, these are the perfect addition to your summer riding wardrobe.
The suede reinforcements in the impact areas on your hand add a touch of luxury, as well as extra protection alongside the PU slider in the event of a spill. Further impact protection in the way of a comfortable and un-incumbent TPU knuckle guard, and padding on each finger can help you forget your worries, and focus more on your ride.
Featuring touchscreen capabilities, and guaranteeing all day comfort thanks to elastic inserts between the fingers, and an adjustable wrist closure, these gloves look great, and feel great - the ultimate hot weather glove.
GOLDTOP VICEROY GLOVES
Goldtop's Viceroy gloves are the brand's most elaborate and protective short cuff glove. The palm of the glove is unlined, while the back of the hand has a beautifully soft silk layer underneath the leather. This combination gives you excellent dexterity, but avoids your hand sticking to the glove on a hotter day.
The fingers and palm are padded and reinforced. The knuckle protector is "floating", offering an extremely comfortable yet protective fit, no matter whether your hand is closed or open. The wrap-around velcro strap holds the glove securely in place.
They are made from a single hide of high quality 1mm thick aniline cowhide. The Goldtop team are a bunch of perfectionists, they hand-select the hides used for their gloves and will not use any off-cuts to ensure a consistent quality across their range. The 5 strand cotton thread stitching used throughout makes for a sturdy glove that will last you a long time.
Now available in this stunning Black/Tan colorway, exclusively available at Urban Rider.
MERLIN SHENSTONE LEATHER MESH GLOVES
Featuring a vintage, short-cuffed aesthetic, the Shenstone gloves will pair effortlessly with your riding setup. Crafted from premium cowhide for durability and abrasion resistance, the key is really in the mesh ventilation panels that are abundant throughout the construction. These promote cooling airflow when the heat rises, and combined with a moisture-wicking lining, will keep you dry, and stop your hands overheating when you need it most.
Your knuckles will be kept safe by soft and malleable D3O L1 armour inserts, providing optimum protection in a low profile, unobtrusive set-up. Accordion active stretch panelling and external seams ensure all-ride-long comfort so you can focus on the road ahead. Touchscreen index fingers and thumb allow sat-nav adjustments on the fly, keeping you on track.
If you’re looking for a truly classic-looking leather glove that can handle the summer heat, then look no further. The Merlin Shenstone Leather Mesh Gloves are chocked full of heritage aesthetic, road-ready for hot weather riding.
KNOX URBANE PRO GLOVE
Designed to go hand-in-glove with the immensely popular Urbane Pro armoured shirts, Knox are extending the same game-changing ethos to protect your digits. Immensely breathable and lightweight thanks to 3D spacer mesh on the back of the hand to promote airflow, the Urbane Pro glove remains incredibly protective too.
A premium perforated Cowhide leather palm is combined with an Amara grip pad for stability, plus the Knox Scaphoid Protection System (SPS) that reduces the risk of hyper extension, and a newly developed breathable thermoplastic knuckle guard with Micro-lock technology for superior impact protection.
All of this adds up to the perfect summer riding glove package - ideal for the hottest of rides, you’ll be amazed at how cool your hands stay, whilst remaining comfortable and most importantly of all - safe as houses. You can even scroll through social media thanks to touch screen capabilities (when you’re off the bike please).
