We know the Tempest 2 D-DRY motorcycle gloves of the long version (longer cuff) and of the motorcycle trousers and motorcycle jackets that bear the same stormy word in their name. These, however, are the short Tempest 2 D-DRY motorcycle gloves.
It’s long been a gap in the market: winter motorcycle gloves that don’t need an entire endeavour to finally end up over, under or half-and-half inside the sleeve ends of your motorcycle jacket. Not every motorcyclist loves motorcycle gloves that go all the way up to your elbow, which is where these Tempest 2 D-DRY come in to offer the ideal solution.
The short Tempest 2 D-DRY motorcycle gloves are still winter touring motorcycle gloves and the successor of their namesake without the version number. D-DRY is DAINESE’s own waterproof and breathable membrane. You can also add the padded fibre insulation in this case, which tells you that these short Tempest 2 D-DRY have all the properties you need to ride all the way through fall, winter and spring.
DAINESE is a familiar name with tons of experience and knowhow to bundle all the expectations into tight motorcycle gloves that reach well up your wrist. The preshaped fingers and the 4-way stretch are assets that derive from the rich fountain of knowledge, and the fact that a motorcycle glove of this calibre was given leather reinforcements and a palm of synthetic suede shouldn’t come as a surprise.
Visually, there’s a lot going on on the back of the hand, with the most important role played by the internal Comftech knuckle protector. The L shape between thumb and index finger acts as a visor wiper.
The most interesting observation, however, comes right after you put on these short Tempest 2 D-DRY: they are clearly warm, well-padded, they allow you to have grip and control and the cuff is never in the way. Fans of short motorcycle gloves that ride even through the winter – they do exist – are eagerly rubbing their hands together.
