The short leather Halo motorcycle gloves by Alpinestars are designed to serve a double purpose and combine a technical design with lots of sense for adventure. ‘Adv-Tech’ is what it says, which is no coincidence whatsoever.
Adventurous motorbiking often means ‘sweating’ and to limit that, the Halo motorcycle gloves have been provided with sufficient perforated panels (on the fingers) and a healthy breathability. This makes them light, thin and short enough to effectively direct the riding wind into the sleeve. It’s always pleasurable, also because proper protection is a considerable part of this gear.
You can see it – the knuckle protector is one of the prominent kinds – and you can feel it as well. Goatskin leather on the palm is still the best warranty for outstanding grip and sufficient sturdiness, while the back of the hand contains a lot of stretch material in order to enhance flexibility and comfort. Aramid and polyamide even add an additional dimension to that.
The solid, seamless knuckle protector contributes to the adventurous allures of the Halo motorbike gloves and do not coincidentally remind of motocross and the likes. Alternatively, they are also very functional. The complete Halo has been composed seamless to ensure a heightened comfort level. There is extra impact protection on the fingers, thumb and palm.
You can easily operate your GPS or smartphone thanks to the touchscreen-sensitive index finger and thumb. The Halo stays where it should thanks to the Velcro strip that closes off the short cuff.
