Premium Full-Grain Leather Motorcycle Gloves

The Carbonite Gloves use full-grain leather construction, providing a durable outer material suited to motorcycle riding.

Full-grain leather offers a premium feel while providing durability and abrasion resistance. The construction is complemented by stretch elastane fabric across the finger fourchettes, allowing the fingers to move naturally while maintaining a secure fit.

This combination makes the Carbonite suitable for riders who prefer the feel and durability of leather motorcycle gloves without sacrificing flexibility.

Carbon Fiber Knuckle Protection

The Carbonite features a carbon fiber knuckle protection system designed to provide superior impact and abrasion resistance.

Carbon fiber provides a strong protective structure while maintaining a relatively lightweight profile. The knuckle protection is integrated into the glove design to provide protection without unnecessarily restricting hand movement.

Scaphoid Shield™ Palm Protection

The palm incorporates Scaphoid Shield™ reinforced TPR palm sliders, providing additional protection over the scaphoid area.

The reinforced palm construction is particularly important during motorcycle riding because the palms experience frequent contact with the handlebars and can also be vulnerable during a fall.

Combined with the silicone-printed palm panel, the design provides a balance between protection, durability and grip.

Finger Protection

The Carbonite Gloves feature vented TPR finger protectors along with HD foam protection on the fingertips.

The vented TPR construction provides additional protection while allowing airflow, while the HD foam adds cushioning around the fingertips.

The combination provides additional coverage without creating an overly rigid glove.

Flexible Finger Construction

Motorcycle gloves need to protect the hands while allowing precise control of the motorcycle.

The Carbonite uses 2-way stretch elastane fabric on the fourchettes, allowing greater flexibility between the fingers.

The pre-curved finger construction further follows the natural shape of the hand, helping reduce riding fatigue and making it easier to operate the clutch, brake and other handlebar controls.

Superior Grip & Control

The palm features a silicone-printed panel designed for superior grip.

This helps maintain a secure connection between the rider's hand and the motorcycle's handlebars, particularly during acceleration, braking and gear changes.

The reinforced leather palm also provides additional durability in a high-contact area.

Extended Wrist Protection

The Carbonite features an extended wrist cuff that provides additional coverage around the wrist.

The outside of the cuff is reinforced with TPR, adding another protective element to the wrist area. A neoprene section helps maintain comfort, while the VELCRO® brand and TPR closure provides a secure and adjustable fit.

Easy to Put On & Remove

The glove features an engineered access pull tab designed to make putting on and removing the gloves easier.

This is particularly useful with leather gloves, which can require additional effort when putting them on or taking them off.

Using the designated pull tab also helps prevent unnecessary stress on other parts of the glove.

Touchscreen Compatible

The index fingertip is touchscreen compatible, allowing riders to operate compatible smartphones and other touchscreen devices without removing the gloves.

This provides additional convenience during touring and commuting when navigation or other touchscreen functions may need to be accessed while safely stationary.

Reflective Details

The Carbonite Gloves feature 3M™ Carbon Black reflective piping on the fingers.

The reflective detailing is designed to improve visibility in low-light conditions while maintaining the glove's clean, performance-oriented appearance.
