ADV and More
While designed with the adventure rider in mind, the Alpinestars Highlands offer style and broad-use versatility. A combination of goat leather, stretch mesh, polymer knuckle, and EVA foam padding provide comfort, airflow, and protection. Microfiber on palm and touchscreen-compatible index fingertip and thumb are an added touch.

Winter Wear
Cold-weather riding shouldn't mean subpar hand protection. Newly updated, the Cortech Scarab 2.0 features a HiPora three-layer breathable waterproof lining, 3M Thinsulate insulation, and fleece interior. Goatskin leather outer with abrasion-resistant molded Hitena knuckle, wrist, and finger protectors add up to a safe bet for chilling rides.

Neo-Retro
Have a hand in the retro/café craze. The AGV Sport Blade Leather Gloves feature full-grain cowhide leather construction with an added leather layer on inner thumb and palm. Leather-covered foam-backed knuckle armor maintains a vintage look while perforation, expansion panels, and a soft interior provide modern features and comfort.
