Leather Motorcycle Gloves

Leather is the traditional material from which motorcycle gloves have always been made, and of course leather has many advantages. Leather is comfortable, but it is thin so it gives great feel on the controls. Leather is also strong, so it provide abrasion resistance if you come off the bike. Leather gloves come in all shapes and sizes. All racing gloves are leather, and so are many gloves designed for touring and commuting. Some leather gloves are lined for warmth; others are totally unlined, so are perfect for riding in the summer, and when it is hot. The weakness of leather is its inherent sponge-like qualities. And so, in the rain, a leather glove will absorb water. Eventually, even if there’s a waterproof membrane in the glove, this will find its ways through to the skin, making you feel wet and, in certain conditions, cold. So, most motorcyclists will need more than one pair of gloves, and if you ride a lot in the rain, you should consider acquiring a textile glove with a waterproof membrane.

Brian Sansom Police Summer Waterproof gloves in black

Lorenzo Giordanelli: Craftsmanship, Protection, Passion Love at First Ride

I received the new Brian Sansom Police Summer Waterproof gloves today and, naturally, took them straight out for a 150-mile introduction. Not that I needed much convincing. As the very happy owner of two pairs of Brian Sansom Police Summer gloves already one black, one brown, the second Chriss review of the waterproof version landed, I bought them immediately. No hesitation, no internal debate, no pretending to be sensible. And yes they are gorgeous. Completely, unnecessarily, gloriously gorgeous. As beautiful as the short non-waterproof version. Protection feels seriously solid. They will need a bit of breaking in, as proper leather gloves should. And yes, because they are leather, even with a laminated membrane, a bit of wetting out is part of the game. But in return you clearly get more weather protection, more wind resistance, a touch more insulation, and that lovely long cuff, which makes everything feel that bit more serious and substantial. But really, what deserves saying out loud is this craftsmanship of this quality is rare. These gloves dont just look good they radiate care, skill, seriousness and passion. You can see it immediately. For context, I own 29 pairs of premium motorcycle gloves 12 from FIVE, plus Held, Richa, Rukka, a couple of Dainese, and others. I am not exactly short of comparison material. And yet, my Brian Sansom Police Summer gloves remain the ones I love the most. They genuinely make me smile every time I look at them. And now I have the waterproof long version too. Wow!! Long live Brian Sansom. And hats off to Motolegends for bringing them to us as an exclusive. Cheers from the truest Italian Motolegends fan in Madrid, Spain
