Alpinestars are world-renowned for their racing kit. They are vastly experienced in designing and creating racing gloves with a culmination of years of experience and collaboration with the worlds best riders. The Alpinestars Stella SP-8 V3 Leather Glove is constructed from highly abrasion-resistant, full-grain goat leather and synthetic leather. In addition, it delivers high levels of protection thanks to its advanced MotoGP-derived SP dual-density knuckle protection. The extended cuff provides more excellent coverage with an integrated closure for security and ease of use. An innovative microfibre and PU grip insert are strategically positioned on the palm and thumb for superior grip control and durability. Alpinestars' exclusive ergonomic stretch insert between palm and thumb offers an improved range of hand movement and greater sensitivity while operating the bike controls. A premium quality synthetic suede palm and landing reinforcement and Arshield reinforcement on palm slider provide superior abrasion resistance. In addition, Alpinestars patented third, and fourth finger bridge prevents seam failure and finger separation in the event of a slide. The new construction has reduced seams for enhanced rider comfort. A perforated cuff plus perforated finger sidewalls provide superb breathability and pre-shaped, anatomical finger design and half inner/half outer external seams for comfort and exceptional feel. Elastication at the wrist and hook and loop cuff provides a personalised and secure fit, and the index finger and thumb are touchscreen compatible.
