Reliable Product.

A stylish and reliable product, Alpinestars delivers again with its usual high standards. The glove offers increased grip, excellent wrist/hand protection, and they are not bad to look at. The only downside is that it is difficult for me to squeeze my hand into the glove even with all the straps all the way open. However, once I manage to get my hand in, then the fit is comfortable and can be adjusted to better fit the rider.

Best gloves I ever bought

These are one of the best gloves I have ever purchased. The feel of these gloves and the protection is exactly what I look for in a glove. The fit of the gloves was a tad bigger than I expected but not even noticeable when you’re wearing them. I suggest if you’re trying to figure out your size get one that might be a bit smaller on you and the reason I say that is because the leather will stretch over time giving you a very snug fit on your hands. If you do purchase the wrong size be sure to leave all tags on the gloves so that you can return them for a different size. I didn't bother to return mine for the size as I didn't find them that big (everyone's hands are different sizes & shape). All in all I am very happy with my purchase and will invest in these gloves again in the future.

Fits like a glove...

Worth every cent! These gloves are very tough and comfortable for long rides. Venting is spot on, stitching and materials are great quality.

Alpinestars - GP Tech Gloves - 2008

Excellent gloves at an excellent price. The fit is great (they fit on the tightside but I like that) and top notch quality. Perferations flow air on hot track days, and plenty of protection including the feature to protect a finger roll (pinky and ring finger are connected. Really like the cuff since it's easy to get over the alpinestar jackets with neoprene cuff on the MX-1 jacket. Kudos to Motorcycle Superstore for quick shipment, great products at great prices...

Alpinestars GP Tech 08

As most of the reviewers of this glove will tell you, if you value your hands, it doesn't get much better than this. The glove is an awesome fit all around, but my issue with Alpinestars gloves is the pinky is always a little too long. Aside from that, FULL PROTECTION EVERYWHERE. Easy to put on, but a little on the rough side to take off since it's hard to grab the velcro strap while wearing the gloves. Decent mobility. Oh and you'll get the stares when you stop while wearing them too.

Alpinestars gp tech gloves

Overall the gloves fit quite well. Takes a little effort getting them over the wrist. They seemed to break in rather quickly and took a little getting used to with the hard plastic gauntlet and the extra padding over the thumb. So far so good though

ok...so how much are your hands worth??? Bought these in an XL...should have got a xxl. They run small. They’re still stretching out...they only have about 300 mi on em. and they are giving way...but they are kicking and screaming the whole way. vents are awsome...could have done without the big stiff plastic strap...and cost...well...i paid less for my jacket. (tz-1) i am sure there is nothing these gloves can't handle...i just wish they didn't cost so much. if i had it all to do again...yeah...i would.

Great Glove

These gloves are very comfortable once they break in. Get the wet and wear them till they're dry, they'll mold to your hand. Very good protection and great control feel. I would def. buy them again.

Alpeinstars - GP Tech Gloves - all 5's

The gloves are excellent! My dominant hand was painful wearing them at first but after wearing the gloves a few hours they stretched ever so slightly to accommodate my larger hand and there's no more discomfort... Don't make the mistake of playing with your cat with them if the cat's still got its claws because mine cut some of the stitching of the glove :) I feel very safe wearing these gloves, there very good quality. Another note: don't wear in below 40 degree Fahrenheit temps; it's definitely a warm weather gloves... as if it needs to be said but just in case. Which means also, it's well-ventilated so is awesome in hot weather. It is the epitome of what I think top quality gloves should behave, feel and look like. Can't talk them up enough except also to say worth the money!
