Buying motorcycle gloves for spring and summer
Heat and high temperatures can affect our comfort while riding during the summer. That's why summer gloves are designed to provide breathability and ventilation to the hands, allowing for long rides with total comfort and safety. Summer gloves are characterized by their high lightweight and breathability, as they are usually made with materials and panels that allow air circulation and prevent the accumulation of sweat and heat in the hands. Additionally, they include the necessary protections on the knuckles and palms for excellent protection in case of impact. If you are looking for gloves for the summer or warm climates, take a look at our outlet section.
Types of motorcycle gloves
Waterproof gloves for summer are designed with a water-resistant membrane that protects them from summer rains, allowing you to enjoy motorcycle rides regardless of the weather. The most common membranes include Gore-Tex, D-Dry from Dainese, and Drystar from Alpinestars, among others.
Heated gloves are an excellent option in winter. They are made with materials that insulate from the cold, in addition to having an electrical system that provides warmth in the hands, allowing riding in cold climates.
Summer gloves with Gore-Tex membrane are ideal for their excellent ability to repel water and at the same time offer breathability, making them a reliable option for rainy summer days. The Gore-Tex membrane is composed of several layers, which guarantee excellent protection and allow to keep the hands dry and comfortable.
Summer gloves for women are specifically designed for the anatomy of women. They offer a more precise and ergonomic fit thanks to their adapted sizes, providing greater comfort and safety during long motorcycle trips.
Winter gloves stand out from summer gloves by offering excellent insulation against air and cold. They usually have a thermal lining and even a waterproof and windproof membrane to make riding in cold climates comfortable and safe.

What materials do motorcycle gloves for summer use?
Gloves with perforations and ventilated panels
Summer gloves offer, depending on the manufacturing material, ventilated mesh panels on the back and palm, or in the case of leather gloves, strategically located perforations to increase ventilation and breathability, drastically reducing sweat and increasing tactile sensation in the hands. These features allow for an enjoyable, comfortable, and safe ride on hot days.
Gloves with ventilated knuckle protectors
Some models of motorcycle gloves offer air vents using the protectors in the knuckle area. This allows for greater airflow to enter, reducing heat and sweat inside the hand, which is ideal for rides in very hot climates or for sporty riding on the track or competition.
