Using the hundreds of reviews submitted by Sportsbikeshop customers, we’ve picked out the following five gloves as the UK’s favourites…
Richa Ravine Leather Glove
Customer rating:
Praising the Ravines for their value-for-money offering, Sportsbikeshop customers give them an average score of 4.8 stars from the first 83 reviews. These sub-£50 gloves are complimented for their true-to-size fit and straight-out-of-the-bag comfort, as well as their breathability. Some reviewers also say these gloves keep their hands warm in cooler temperatures − but we wouldn’t recommend relying on them during winter.
Held Evo Thrux Special Edition Glove - Black
Customer rating:
Despite the low price, many of the first 24 customers to review these gloves agree that the build quality is top-notch. Customers also complimented these gloves for their comfort, feel and protection. Many customers commented that these gloves can be quite a snug fit, but quickly break in for maximum comfort. The perforated leather on the back of the hand works well, keeping customers’ hands cool in warm weather.
RST Tractech Evo 4 CE Leather Gloves
Customer rating:
Sportsbikeshop customers have praised these Aramid and kangaroo leather gloves for the quick break-in time and comfort, with many reviewers also noting their true-to-size fit. Customers were also happy with the level of protection afforded by these gloves, which includes CE Level 2 carbon protection at the knuckles, sliders on the finger joints and palm, and a double layer of leather on the palm.
