(130)

This collection features high-performance gloves designed for sport riding, track use, and spirited street riding. You'll find options ranging from short-cuff sport gloves with premium kangaroo leather construction to gauntlet-style racing gloves with advanced knuckle protection and carbon fiber reinforcements. The collection includes gloves with varying levels of protection and features to suit different riding intensities, from aggressive canyon carving to professional circuit racing.

Yes, many gloves in this collection are designed for both track performance and spirited street riding. While they offer race-derived protection and premium materials, they're engineered for comfort during extended rides. Sport-focused gloves typically feature more aggressive protection than touring gloves, including carbon fiber knuckle guards, reinforced palm sliders, and race-spec impact protection. Consider your riding style—aggressive sport riders will benefit from the enhanced protection, while more casual riders might prefer gloves from our road gloves or urban gloves collections.

Racing & Sport gloves in this collection meet or exceed EN 13594 European safety standards for motorcycle protective gloves. Many models achieve the highest Level 2 KP certification, indicating superior impact and abrasion resistance. Race-oriented gloves feature additional FIM homologation for professional competition use. Key protective elements include CE-certified knuckle protectors, reinforced palm sliders, finger bridge systems to prevent hyperextension, and multi-layer construction using materials like kangaroo leather, Kevlar, and carbon fiber for maximum abrasion resistance.

Racing and sport gloves should fit snugly without restricting blood flow or causing discomfort. Premium leather gloves will break in and conform to your hand shape over time, typically becoming more comfortable after initial use. Fingers should reach the end of each glove compartment without excess material, and the wrist closure should secure firmly without gaps. For track use, a tighter fit is preferred to prevent movement during aggressive riding and potential loss in a crash. If you're between sizes, consider that kangaroo leather stretches more than cowhide during the break-in period.

Most Racing & Sport gloves prioritize protection and performance over waterproofing, as they're designed primarily for dry conditions and track use. While premium leather construction offers some water resistance, these gloves are not fully waterproof and will eventually saturate in sustained rain. For wet weather riding, consider gloves from our adventure motorcycle gloves or touring gloves collections, which feature waterproof membranes. However, many sport riders keep a dedicated waterproof glove option for rainy conditions while using race-spec gloves for optimal performance in dry weather.
