The SP X 1 motorcycle gloves are designed by Alpinestars to be simple, effective, and comfortable, while providing a lot of protection. They are stretchy, well-breathing, short motorcycle gloves with some serious sporty touches.
The SP X 1 motorcycle gloves combine comfort with functionality. The back of the hand is made from stretchy textile, while the palm opts for synthetic leather. Each material has the best characteristics for its respective area, resulting in a pleasant and well-functioning whole.
A few features stand out. The bridge between the fingers (freedom of movement versus control and precision) comes from motorcycle racing and complements the reinforcement on the outside of the palm and the inside of the little finger. These critical areas are well protected against abrasion. While we're on the topic, the TPR SPX knuckle protection follows the natural shape of the hand, creating direct airflow and ventilation. The 3D ergonomic design optimises both comfort and protection of the knuckles. There are additional reinforcements on the fingers and palm (ball of the hand), some with foam or even TPR. Double layers of synthetic leather on the palm naturally help too. By the way, the synthetic leather on the palm is ideal for maintaining grip and control.
These almost sound like the features of a motorcycle racing glove. However, the SP X 1 motorcycle glove is too light, too thin, and too comfortable for that. Well-placed perforations provide optimal airflow and breathability. The stretch fabric guarantees a snug but sufficiently flexible fit, offering a lot of freedom of movement.
The compact cuff closure (on the short cuff) creates a sleek and streamlined look. Stylish. Tight. A touchscreen zone on the thumb and index finger allows you to operate various devices.
