Collection: Adventure Touring Gloves

(42)

The Adventure Touring Gloves collection features a comprehensive range designed for long-distance and mixed-terrain riding. You'll find options spanning from lightweight summer gloves with enhanced ventilation to fully waterproof winter gloves with thermal insulation. The collection includes short-cuff styles for warmer climates, mid-length gauntlets for versatile protection, and extended-cuff designs that integrate seamlessly with jacket sleeves for maximum weather sealing. Each glove incorporates CE-certified knuckle and palm protection, touchscreen-compatible fingertips, and materials chosen specifically for durability across varied adventure riding conditions.

Waterproof capability varies across the Adventure Touring Gloves collection to match different riding needs. Many models feature integrated waterproof and breathable membranes that keep hands dry in sustained rain while allowing moisture vapor to escape. These fully waterproof options are ideal for multi-day tours and unpredictable weather conditions. The collection also includes water-resistant models with DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatments suitable for light rain and spray, as well as summer-focused designs prioritizing ventilation over weather protection. Product specifications clearly indicate waterproof ratings, helping you select gloves matched to your typical riding environments and seasonal requirements.

Proper care extends the life and performance of your Adventure Touring gloves significantly. For leather and mixed-material gloves, hand wash using mild soap and lukewarm water, then air dry away from direct heat sources which can damage protective components and stiffen materials. Never machine wash or tumble dry, as this compromises waterproof membranes and CE-certified armor. For textile gloves, follow care label instructions carefully—most can be gently hand washed, though some technical fabrics require specialized cleaners. After wet rides, remove gloves promptly and stuff with newspaper to maintain shape while drying. Periodically apply leather conditioner to leather panels to prevent cracking, and inspect knuckle protectors and palm sliders for wear. Store gloves in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight to preserve material integrity and protective features.

Adventure Touring gloves in this collection prioritize comprehensive hand protection for long-distance and off-road riding scenarios. Most models incorporate CE-certified hard knuckle protectors that absorb and disperse impact energy, along with reinforced palm sliders designed to reduce friction injuries during slides. Finger and thumb protection varies by model, with higher-specification gloves featuring individual finger armor and additional TPU reinforcements across high-risk zones. Many designs include carbon fiber or thermoplastic knuckle shells for maximum impact resistance while maintaining flexibility. Abrasion-resistant materials such as full-grain leather, synthetic suede, and Kevlar-reinforced textiles appear in critical wear areas. Wrist closure systems—including hook-and-loop straps, ratchet adjusters, and gauntlet cuffs—ensure gloves remain securely positioned during impact scenarios while preventing debris entry on unpaved surfaces.

Adventure Touring gloves are specifically engineered for the unique demands of long-distance, mixed-terrain riding that regular motorcycle gloves may not address. The key differences include:

Adventure gloves balance protection, weather resistance, and comfort for riders who encounter diverse conditions during multi-day journeys. Explore our road gloves and MX gloves collections if your riding focuses on specific disciplines rather than adventure touring versatility.
