Racer High Speed Gloves

1. Racer High Speed Gloves review

Posted by George on 7th Sep 2022

After reading about many different brands of protective gloves for track riding, I eventually settled on the Racer High Speed. They have many of the qualities I was looking for in a glove including protection, comfort and ease of putting them on and taking them off.

The gauntlets are great - they're plenty large enough for any size race suit or jacket and they snug down. The other velcro closure is easy and quick to use. You can get these gloves on in about 5 seconds max.

Fit is as expected. I took a 2XL and it fits me well although a couple of the fingers are slightly longer than optimum - not an issue though. I've been wearing them around the house to break them in. They're not quite there yet but getting more comfortable every time I put them on. I'm sure by the time my next track day comes, they'll be great.

I got the white / black and they're quite attractive. I also just love the kangaroo palms.

I'm quite pleased with the purchase. The service from Sportbike Track Gear was first rate. I got the gloves two days after ordering them! Thank you for your assistance and I look forward to using these gloves for a long time!

The STG and online reviews are spot on. True to fit sizing, just right after break-in, comfortable, hi quality construction. Will buy another pair if I wear these out.

3. Seams Open Up

I love the fit and feel of these gloves. Unfortunately, however, my seamstress-capable wife has had to make three separate repairs to finger seams that opened up. The first repair was after wearing the gloves for two track days and two race weekends. The second repair was after a few more days of track use and, now, the third repair is after a total of only ten days of track use. Finger seams on both gloves have fallen apart. I haven't crashed, the gloves fit well and I don't have fat fingers. The problem is that the thread (cotton) on the finger seams breaks and then the seams unravel because of the nature of the stitch used. In light of what these gloves cost, this is really unacceptable.

4. I finally found a comfortable glove!

Each gauntlet glove I've tried from Alpinestars, Cortech, RS Taichi, and RST were OK in some spots, but uncomfortable in others (great fit in the thumb, index, middle, and ring fingers, but too short in the pinkie; great fit around my knuckles but too short fingertip to palm; etc.). I've read a couple reviews of the Racer High Speed gloves and decided to give them a shot. A wise decision! I feel the size chart is spot-on. My measurements were in between XL and 2XL, so I chose the larger size and these gloves feel fantastic! The Racer High Speed gloves look great and are incredibly comfortable. Highly recommend!

Feels good and looks good. Waiting to get out and ride on them. Should be good.

7. From Alpinestars to Racer

Posted by Matt Delgado on 17th Feb 2022

Last year I purchased a pair of XXL Alpinestars GP Pro R3 gloves. No knock to them; I’ve had plenty of A-stars gear with no issues. But the R3 just could not get me the feel I needed after 4 track days. Ended up calling STG and was recommended Racer. I ordered both an XL and XXL to see which ones fit best. The XXL had a little too much material bunch up in the palm, so I kept the XL. They fit like a second skin. I’m still waiting to get on track with them, but I’m expecting they’ll give me a few mm after some track time. So far very happy with the fit of the glove.

I feel like when I got into riding some years back, I became obsessed with gloves right away. Honestly I feel like I have purchased every pair of the “top” brands, short cuff and gauntlet. I was spending hundreds of dollars on each pair almost weekly, but I never found one that felt like “the perfect glove” to me. Last year I found these Racer gloves. Nothing before has compared or come close to these. I am already on my second pair. Highly recommend giving these a try.
