The Alpinestars GP Plus R v3 motorcycle gloves are designed for riders seeking top-tier performance and maximum protection on the track. The name ‘GP Plus R’ carries plenty of (fast) promises – and these motorcycle gloves deliver with an exceptional balance of durability, comfort, and control.
These motorcycle gloves feature a full leather construction with strategically reinforced areas. The exterior is crafted from premium cowhide leather, while the palm is made from supple goatskin for optimal grip. Strategically placed perforations enhance airflow and ventilation, keeping your hands cool during high-intensity rides.
And intense it can certainly get. The GP Plus R v3 race gloves incorporate an aramid stretch cuff, inspired by Alpinestars’ premium Supertech motorcycle race gloves, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit. The pre-curved design and hybrid finger stitching enhance ergonomics, providing optimal control on the track.
In terms of impact protection, these motorcycle gloves are equipped with a dual-density TPU knuckle protector, as well as TPU reinforcements on the palm and fingers for increased wear-resistance. Alpinestars’ integrated Dynamic Friction Shield (DFS) minimises friction and wear in key areas, while the finger bridge between the ring finger and little finger prevents finger distortion in the event of a crash.
There’s a functional side to the design as well. Alpinestars has included a touchscreen-compatible area on the index finger, allowing riders to operate devices without removing their motorcycle gloves. Not that you wouldn’t be able to – an adjustable wrist strap and cuff ensure a personalised fit, and the PU leather pull-tab makes putting them on and taking them off effortless.
With CE certification meeting knuckle protection standards (KP1), the Alpinestars GP Plus R v3 motorcycle gloves are a reliable choice for motorcycle riders looking for premium race-ready motorcycle gloves.
