Riding Gear Review: Saint Road Gloves

Geoff Baldwin — Wed, 31 Jan 2024 13:04:55 +0000

The riding gear in Saint’s catalog consistently blurs the lines between form and function. Despite being highly functional motorcyclist apparel, their jeans and jackets can easily pass for streetwear. But from the look of their latest release, times may be changing. These are the new Saint Road Gloves, a no-nonsense motorcycling glove that won’t pull any punches when protecting your precious digits. Although slick in their styling Saint has taken a more traditional sports bike design approach with the Road […]

Riding Gear: Rev’it! Heated Liberty H2O Gloves

Geoff Baldwin — Wed, 11 Jan 2023 05:34:15 +0000

From handheld devices to off-grid homes lithium battery technology is reshaping the way we live. Motorcyclists are now also getting to enjoy the benefits of lithium technology beyond simply exchanging their motorcycle’s battery for a lightweight alternative. When heated motorcycle gear first hit the market you’d have to wire yourself to your motorcycle for it to function. While this method certainly worked, anyone that has used it is sure to have forgotten to unplug themselves before dismounting or got tangled […]

The 10 Best Cafe Racer Gloves For 2024

Jared Northcott — Wed, 16 Nov 2022 10:34:42 +0000

Arguably the most important part of your riding gear after your helmet is your gloves. Protecting your precious digits means wearing purpose-made motorcycle gloves—and, like helmets, there’s a vast selection to choose from. If you’re looking to buy a pair of riding gloves, you’ll have to decide between multiple lengths, different materials, and the amount of armour you want. You’ll also have to consider the season(s) each prospective pair of gloves is made for. Now, in late 2023, we’re here […]

The Best Cafe Racer Pants For 2024

Graham Miles — Wed, 16 Nov 2022 09:36:29 +0000

We’d like to think by now that every motorcyclist understands the importance of wearing protective riding gear. Unfortunately, our everyday observations paint a different picture. While most riders wear an appropriate jacket, helmet and gloves, it seems dedicated riding pants are often overlooked—even though most motorcycle injuries occur below the waist. So in the interest of rider safety, here are our choices for the Best Cafe Racer Pants in 2023. What Are Protective Motorcycle Pants? There was a time when […]

These are the Rev’it! Volcano gloves. They are part of the brand’s latest ADV collection of riding gear. Despite that categorisation, the Volcanos are designed for both on and off-road riding.

Now mentally divide the fashion on display into three categories. First will be the ‘also rans’. The people in rental gear, thrift store rags, or just cheap-ass shopping mall threads. Feel free to ignore them. It’s the two remaining groups that we’re interested in. They’ll be the […]

Biltwell Bridgeport Gloves

Geoff Baldwin — Sat, 11 Sep 2021 01:33:27 +0000

We applaud moto brands that continually step up their game. One such brand that earned our kudos a long time ago is Biltwell Inc.

Knox Urbane Pro Gloves

Geoff Baldwin — Tue, 20 Apr 2021 14:12:42 +0000

As the temperatures rise in Summer it’s not unusual to see motorcyclists neglecting their safety in favour of staying cool. No one likes the idea of being soaked in sweat when they reach their destination – but no one should consider shorts and a t-shirt appropriate riding gear. Road rash may sound relatively harmless, but when it’s the result of a motorcycle accident it can be very, very painful. This is due to speed, the surface you’re travelling on and […]

Going ATGATT in the Cafe Racer Style for Under $1,500

Graham Miles — Wed, 13 Jan 2021 16:40:03 +0000

You can spend as much or as little as you want on your riding gear. There’s a school of thought that says the more you spend the better it gets. But there are also riders who spend as little as possible on their gear, thinking “it’s got the safety rating so it’s just as good”. We fall somewhere between the two. We know there are brands who charge a premium for premium gear, but we also know there are companies […]

Akin Moto Blip Motorcycle Gloves

Geoff Baldwin — Sun, 22 Nov 2020 09:30:43 +0000

Having good feedback and feel between you and your motorcycle is an essential part of riding. It allows you to receive messages your motorcycle may be putting out and to interpret and act on them appropriately. One of your most important receivers of these messages is your hands. For that reason, bulky or ill-fitting gloves can have an adverse effect on how you ride, especially if they limit your movement. The Akin Moto Blip Gloves tackle this issue by offering […]

REAX Ridge Waterproof Gloves

Geoff Baldwin — Sun, 15 Nov 2020 15:22:45 +0000

If you’re the kind of motorcyclist who rides rain, hail or shine you know how important purpose-built riding gear can be. You’ll also know waterproof gear tends to be bulky and a lot less visually appealing than regular gear. After a decade of reviewing riding gear, RevZilla co-founder Matt Kull and his team launched their own brand, REAX. Amongst their range of great looking, performance-focused gear are the REAX Ridge Waterproof gloves. The REAX Ridge Waterproof gloves are a gauntlet […]

It’s a rare thing when your first purchase for a new hobby or past time turns out to be one of the best you’ll ever make. This was my experience when I bought my first pair of motorcycle gloves some 15 years ago.

This experience obviously hasn’t been limited to me […]

The companies owners build their own bikes and frequently take part in on and off-road race events.

When creating the Sakura gloves Anthony and the 78 Motor Co. team took an ‘haute couture’ approach, which for those who tend to stick to denim jeans and cotton tees, like yours truly, means high-end fashion. As he explains it “Design and functionality tend to sit on the opposite axis. I wanted to pull these elements together”. The construction of each pair of Sakura motorcycle gloves begins with “the finest aniline calf hides” sourced from Scandinavia. The leather is kept slightly thicker through […]

I checked out the sizing chart, measured up my hand and selected the extra large gloves. In black, of course. The “Sand” color looks rather white in the product photos, and when I first saw them I thought “golfer’s glove”. I’m not a brown gear sort-of-guy so I gave “Tobacco” a miss. When the gloves arrived, I was immediately taken by the soft feel of the leather. According to the RSD website, this is top grain cowhide. I couldn’t wait […]

It’s winter down here in Australia and the first-morning ride I did wearing the Marauders was brisk, to say the least. With their shorter cuff I do believe these are more of a summer riding glove; however for those of us without heated hand grips they can still sufficiently keep the chill away. Constructed from the same peanut Bison leather they use on most of their range they are a beautifully made glove. Soft, flexible leather provides great dexterity while […]
