When the summer season begins, look no further than the Alpinestars SMX-2 Air Carbon V2 gloves for your urban riding in warm weather, with a combination of 3D mesh for incredible airflow and full grain leather for traditional strength and protection.

As already mentioned, the Alpinestars SMX-2 Air Carbon V2 gloves feature a combination of 3D mesh textile and traditional full grain leather. The mesh aspects of the SMX-2 Air gloves feature multiple small holes in a hardwearing textile material, channelling huge amounts of cool air into the gloves while riding.

This is used in combination with a full grain leather, offering a huge amount of friction resistance in the event of a slide across tarmac. Despite this heavy-duty outer material, the SMX-2 gloves are surprising supple and ideal for your everyday summer commute and urban riding adventures. Abrasion resistance is furthered still with the use of a synthetic suede overlay at the side of the hand and the palm, easily withstanding the intense friction that can be experience at this key area.

A carbon knuckle protector at the back of the hand helps to eliminate some of the impact energy that can be experienced at the back of the hand. This knuckle protector is ergonomically shaped and is designed to cushion different and repeated impacts for maximum protection. Around the knuckle protection, along with other areas around the gloves, you’ll notice double stitched areas which offer even greater strength to the glove should the worst occur.

Soft density padding found around the Alpinestars SMX-2 Air mesh gloves help to further reduce the impact energy transferral without sacrificing the comfort within the gloves. These soft density insert can be found at the back of the fingers and the lower palm, maximising your safety in the event of an accident. An advanced polyfabric material at the palm provides additional grip at the handlebars, as well as preventing premature wear at this area.

The fingers of these Alpinestars gloves are also pre-curved, helping to reduce the fatigue felt at the hand when travelling over longer distance. The cuff of these vented mesh gloves features a neoprene finish, providing additional comfort and a welcomed feature if you’re using the SMX-2 Air gloves over longer distances.

For greater convenience when out on the road, a touch sensitive material at the tips of the index fingers and thumbs makes using your GPS navigation device possible, without the need to remove the gloves.

A Velcro cuff closure offers a simple yet reliable fastening point, ensuring that the glove and all the protective elements that are incorporated into the glove remain in the right place when they are needed most.

Available in sizes Small - 3XL.
