Motorcycle Gloves

Gloves are a crucial piece of your riding kit. Apart from the obvious protection they offer from the weather, your motorcycle gloves give you added grip and can help reduce fatigue caused by vibration from the handlebars. It’s especially important to make sure that your gloves fit you, so we have a range of ladies’ motorcycle gloves on offer so female riders don’t suffer from loose-fitting gloves which can fall off or cause chafing.

Our ever growing range includes leather motorbike gloves and armoured race gloves as well as waterproof, thermal textile gloves and heated motorcycle gloves for more adverse conditions. Prices start from only £19.99 so there really is a glove for every budget. Spend over £25 and we’ll also deliver them for free anywhere in the mainland UK!

Some will tell you gloves meeting the higher CE safety test would be too bulky. The Oxford Nexus gloves prove them wrong

Motorcycle Boots

As well as offering abrasive protection in the event of an accident, some modern motorcycle boots also include mechanisms to prevent the over-extension of your joints which can lead to broken bones. These motorcycle boots have an exoskeleton which allows movement only in certain directions and to specific limits. You can also get the style you prefer from our range of urban and casual look motorcycle boots and ladies motorcycle boots.

As you can see, it’s quite likely the boots you wear on your motorbike do more than you think, and our range starts at only £49.99!

Helite Touring Air Inflatable Textile Jacket - Black Helite Touring Air Inflatable Textile Jacket - Black
I was thinking of buying the jacket as a summer waterproof airbag jacket and when the price was reduced it was a no brainer. The jacket fits just right and with the added protection of the air bag is isdeal for touring the UK next Spring.

RST Tractech Evo 5 CE Leather Trousers - Black / Black / Black RST Tractech Evo 5 CE Leather Trousers - Black / Black / Black
These are so comfortable, especially when sitting on the bike. Have had lots of good experience with tractech gear and these live up to expectations. Level 2 armour for knees and hips is included which is nice. They are well ventilated with large perforated sections.

They run a bit large. I am a 30 regular in normal jeans but needed a size 28 short for these trousers which fit me perfectly.

Unfortunately short and long leg lengths are only available in triple black, I wanted the red/white ones to match with my jacket but if you are outside the middle range of sizes triple black is the only option.

DXR Hinckley Waterproof Leather Boots - Black DXR Hinckley Waterproof Leather Boots - Black
These boots are made to last with proper stitching used for bonding the thick leather uppers to the sole and both are high quality materials. Supplied with 2 sets of laces. (black & grey)

I normally wear a size 8 or 9 depending on the style and manufacturer, so I took a punt and chose the 8.5 and they felt so comfortable from day one, no breaking in was needed.

On the bike they are perfect with the foot easily fitting under the gear change enabling smooth up shifting and also sit comfortably on both foot pegs.
Only used in light rain but both feet remained dry and soles provided good grip manoeuvring the bike on garage forecourts and gravel car parks.

Walking around at your destination is also a comfortable experience and the boots look nice with my black motorcycle jeans so visits to cafes and pubs enable you to blend in with the general public.

At the price, compared to others, I didn’t expect either this level of quality or comfort but I am so totally satisfied that I now use the DXR Hinckley’s exclusively on and off the bike.

Alpinestars Andes V3 Drystar Textile Jacket - Black Alpinestars Andes V3 Drystar Textile Jacket - Black
Came off my bike at 25mph. Had a short slide on the road. While the shoulder with the added abrasion resistance held up perfectly, my outer forearm which was also touring the road gave way really quickly. After such a short slide it got through all layers, to the thermal liner. A few meters more and my skin would've been kissing the road.

I never really paid attention to CE rating until that crash, but now I realise CE A is not even close to being enough, which is what this jacket is.
