Protection Motorcycle Gloves

The Basics of Good Protection

As a motorcyclist, it is important to wear protective motorcycle gloves, especially when riding at higher speeds. A safe glove is made of durable materials such as Kevlar, leather, and textile to mainly prevent abrasions and fractures. A motorcycle glove is also often equipped with a closure, so the glove seals well against the weather and does not slip off in an accident.

Knuckle and Finger Protection

A motorcycle glove may be equipped with knuckle protection. This protection is made of hard or soft materials. Hard knuckle protection offers the most protection but often limits freedom of movement. The purpose of knuckle protection is to protect your hands against impact and/or sliding. Most motorcycle gloves are also equipped with finger protection. This protection is often flexible and ensures that your phalanges do not break upon impact.

Inner Protection

The inside of a glove is often made of leather. The reason for this is that leather provides the most protection in a slide. Leather is naturally very wear-resistant, making it special. The inside is also often equipped with a slider for extra protection on the palm, one of the most essential places.

Recognizing Safe Motorcycle Gloves

You can recognize a safe motorcycle glove as follows:

• Made from leather or other durable materials
• Equipped with knuckle protection
• Contains durable parts such as sliders, finger protection and a leather palm
• Has a Velcro closure
• Has a CE level 1 or level 2 mark
