Motorcycling is passion and emotion. Often it is, and then it is nice when you can wear gloves that reflect that in the name.
And not only in name. Held Emotion are well made and cleverly designed goatskin leather summer gloves. They reach up to the wrist, though we dare call them 'short'. There might be some space left between the glove and the end of the sleeve, which is rarely a problem in summer.
Nice is that Held made the Emotion colorfast and sweatproof. Handy of course, if you plan to make a summer trip with them. Don't look for heavy knuckle protection or plastic inserts: light and flexible are the keywords here. Add "comfortable" to that as well. The Emotion has flat seams, which can only be a good thing. And despite the absence of flashy protective material, this remains first and foremost a motorcycle glove, of course. With the CE-certificate (EN 13594:2015) to prove it. The goatskin leather used is of course wear-resistant, and where necessary (read: in the most critical areas) you will also find an extra layer or a piece of internal foam.
The cuff is easily closed with a velcro strip and the tips of the index fingers, so you can operate a smartphone.
There is maintenance clothing and then there is clothing maintenance. Good, solid motorcycle clothing is an investment in comfort and personal safety. So invest in its maintenance after your purchase and enjoy your gear for longer. We put the best tips and tricks on this maintenance page.
