Racer High Speed Gloves

These gloves are excellent. They fit true to size and require very little to break in. I was using Alpinestars gp gloves before but like the fit and feel of the Racer’s more.

THANKS BRIAN VAN FOR ALL OF THE THOROUGH REVIEWS YOU POST ON YOUR SITE! IF PEOPLE TAKE THE TIME TO WATCH THEM THEY WILL BENEFIT. I LIKE MY ASTARS GP PRO GLOVES BUT .... I LOVE THESE HIGH SPEED RACERS MORE. NOTHING BEATS WEARING THIS LEVEL OF GLOVES NO MATTER WHAT YOU RIDE. THANKS BRIAN, MAX AND STG

Great advice on my purchase. I’ll certainly be getting more sets here soon.

After my initial ride I have no complaints. They are sized the same as a* for reference. My first thought was the leather is so supple it requires no break in time. The build quality looks to be top notch unlike new a* stuff. The protection seems to be good, hopefully I don't find out. Overall I'd recommend these. I'd give 5 stars but haven't tested them in a crash.

These gloves are very high quality and seem to be built very well. They are very comfortable and true to size. I was debating buying a pair of Alpinestars at the same price point but decided to try out the Racer High Speed gloves as my Alpinestars gloves in the past haven’t held up great. The only complaint I have is that on the left glove, you can feel the inner stitching on the fingertips as it sits right under your finger nails. When moving your fingers you can feel the seam under your nail and it’s a bit uncomfortable. This is luckily only on the left hand which does not move around nearly as much on the bike as the right hand. I have worn these gloves around the house and they are already more comfortable and feel somewhat broken in. The seam on the inside of the finger tips is annoying at first but I don’t think it will be an issue when riding. I would recommend these gloves.

Ive been struggling to find gauntlet gloves that afforded excellent protection, good fit, and comfort. After trying all the high-end brands like Dianese and AStars I was pretty disappointed. Between finger length being too long or short, seams failing, pinch points, zero feel through the glove, I was ready to order custom gloves. I stumbled upon a review video of the Racer gloves and decided to give them a shot. WOW WOW WOW. Fit is damn near perfect for an off the shelf glove, no pinch points or rub areas that hurt, the kangaroo palm is so soft and plush its like a second skin and there was zero break-in time. Protection is right up there with the other premium offerings and the price is right. Ive got "fabricators" hands meaning a big palm and short thick fingers. The size chart put me in a large and they fit perfectly. Time will tell for longevity and durability but out of the box and a few rides have me completely sold on Racer gloves moving forward!

Excellent gloves. Requires very little break-in. Fitting chart correctly displays the correct measurements and size. These are by far my favorite glove and I have owed a few. I only have one minor complaint, the thumb is maybe 1/8 inch too long. Everything else is perfect. I think the thumb being slightly long is from an oversight. It’s the only digit that’s stitched internally, not externally like the other 4 fingers. Anyway, very minor issue and I will be 100% buying these again when the time comes.

I've had these through about 2.5 seasons and ~12k miles. Really happy with them. My hands measure 9.5" in the palm, and 8" in length. By the size chart, this would put me right at XL. I purchased both XL,and 2XL. I ended up keeping the 2XL and they fit perfect. Make sure you test the fit holding on to your handlebars, as this can be quite different than with your hands at rest. I don't notice that the "venting" does much, but I didn't really expect it too. I've notice no wear so far. The gauntlet is wide enough to fit over an Aerostich Roadcrafter suit. The extra large Aerostich "lobster claw" rain gloves fit over, but without much extra space to spare. Yes they are expensive. My recommendation is to buy once, cry once and then enjoy excellent gloves for years to come. FWIW I'm riding a Councours C14 and typically do lots of short rural rides.

The materials are top notch. These gloves have every bit of protection you can imagine. They are super flexible and the materials are soft and feel nice. The downside: the seams on the ends of the fingers fold in, so you're always feeling a lip press against the end of your fingernail. It's very distracting while riding.
