ALPINESTARS SMX-2 Air Carbon V2 Gloves
Engineered for warm-weather riding, these short-cuff motorcycle gloves blend performance, protection, and comfort in a sleek, breathable design. A durable multi-panel main shell pairs full‑grain leather with 3D mesh to deliver abrasion resistance and optimal airflow on every ride.
For confident control, an innovative microfiber and Polyurethane (PU) grip insert is strategically positioned on the palm and thumb, complemented by an exclusive ergonomic stretch insert between the palm and thumb for natural hand movement. The palm features premium-quality suede with landing reinforcement to bolster durability where it matters most.
Protection is prioritized with an ergonomically shaped carbon knuckle guard, internally reinforced for added impact defense. Finger tops and the back of the hand incorporate polymesh and Thermoplastic Rubber (TPR) inserts, while thick EVA foam reinforces the interior side of the guard for improved fit, comfort, and shock absorption. Additional impact‑absorbing EVA foam panels on the thumb enhance overall coverage.
Designed to reduce fatigue, the pre-curved finger construction works with stretch finger sidewalls to improve flexibility and comfort on longer rides. 3D mesh across the fingers and thumb maximizes cooling performance, keeping hands ventilated during stop‑and‑go traffic or spirited weekend runs.
A secure neoprene wrist cuff with hook‑and‑loop and TPR closure ensures a personalized fit that stays put. For everyday convenience, the index fingertip and thumb are touchscreen compatible, allowing quick access to navigation and calls without removing your gloves.
