The first Sonar GTX was a hit, and this successor is even better. For both men and women, with a (GTX) GORE-TEX® membrane and a sturdy lining, this is a winter glove that will give you a lot of pleasure when the weather is not in your favor.
Of course, this is what we expect from this caliber of motorcycle glove. And who, after reading these sentences, also expects to put his or her hands in a pair of boxing gloves without much motoric possibilities, might instantly change their minds. Despite the integrated, water- and windproof GORE TEX® membrane, despite the Tri-fleece lining, and despite the leather and textile outer shell, this remains a "fine" motorcycle glove, with which you can easily press a button, open a visor, or operate a lever.
The palm of the hand is made up of a double layer of goatskin leather - great grip, great wear-resistance - while the back of the hand is dominated by the triple visco-elastic foam covered in leather, which doubles as knuckle protection. So, no hard materials, and above all: the right materials in the best place, in a balanced mix of leather and textile. The integrated GORE TEX® membrane is and remains the surest guarantee for dry hands.
It feels good. Literally. Five fingertips equipped with leather, with the index finger being touchscreen compatible. And on the left hand equipped with a rubber visor wiper, which illustrates once again that high summer is not the first (or only) season to be on the road with these motorcycle gloves.
The Sonar-GTX 2.0 is a relatively long motorcycle glove that can be worn under or over the sleeve. The elastic band under the thumb is assisted by a velcro strip on top of the wrist and the cuff can also be made wider or narrower with velcro.
Reflective strips on the index finger and the cuff stand out sufficiently, and a 'water barrier' at the end of the cuff prevents rainwater from entering the sleeves via wet and soaked motorcycle gloves.
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.
