If their first impression were to give you any other ideas, they would disappear as soon as you have the Lady Russell motorcycle gloves from Segura in your hands: this is light. Fortunately, because the Lady Russell is a pure summer glove with a clear focus on ventilation.
This doesn’t mean that all the rest fades into the background. The sturdy carbon knuckle protector is visually the most important, while the smart use of mesh, 3D-mesh, Amara and Lycra play a functional role. The combination of all that results in an interesting summer motorcycle glove. One that still gives a lot of confidence, also in terms of safety. You feel that your hands are protected. And yet the Lady Russell is light and easy. It stretches where it should, grips where it should, and has just enough material to give body to the otherwise mostly ventilated back. The previous sentences were written faster than it was realized, you can be sure of that.
Besides a bit of padding and a durable double layer on the palm, Segura counts on the knuckle protection when it comes to real impact protection. The carbon fiber protector looks great as well. The Lady Russell is not a waterproof motorcycle glove. The short cuff can be closed with a velcro strip and the opening between the wrist and the end of the sleeve has an extra ventilating effect.
Fast, summery, light, a bit retro, pleasant, and again: the balance between a little motorcycle glove and a lot of protection ... this is a sight to behold.
