FAQs
The women's motorcycle gloves collection spans multiple riding disciplines and styles. You'll find options designed for street riding, sport and track use, adventure touring, and urban commuting. Each category offers specific features tailored to different riding environments, from short-cuff sport gloves with race-derived protection to long-gauntlet adventure gloves built for all-weather touring. The collection includes both leather and textile constructions, with varying levels of protection, insulation, and ventilation to match your riding needs.
Women's motorcycle gloves feature anatomically specific patterns designed for narrower hand widths, shorter finger lengths, and reduced palm circumference compared to unisex sizing. Beyond fit, these gloves often incorporate adjusted knuckle placement and palm padding positioned to match female hand biomechanics. The protection standards and technical features—including CE certification, impact protection, and abrasion-resistant materials—remain identical to men's offerings, ensuring the same championship-proven safety technology in a fit optimized for women riders.
Yes, Alpinestars women's motorcycle gloves meet European CE certification standards where applicable to their intended use. Sport and street gloves typically carry CE Level 1 or Level 2 knuckle protection, while many models include additional palm sliders, finger protection, and reinforced impact zones. The specific certification level varies by glove model and intended riding discipline—track-focused gloves generally feature higher protection levels than urban commuting styles. All protective elements are integrated without compromising the women-specific fit and dexterity.
The women's collection utilizes premium materials selected for protection, durability, and comfort. Leather options include full-grain cowhide for abrasion resistance and kangaroo leather for lightweight flexibility with superior tear strength. Textile gloves incorporate advanced synthetic materials with reinforced knuckles, palms, and finger areas. Many models combine leather and textile construction to optimize protection zones while maintaining breathability. Additional features include moisture-wicking liners, touchscreen-compatible fingertips, and climate-specific insulation or ventilation depending on the glove's intended season and use.
Your choice depends on riding style and jacket compatibility. Short-cuff gloves work best for sport riding and warm weather, fitting inside jacket sleeves for unrestricted wrist movement and reduced bulk. They're ideal for track use and aggressive riding positions. Gauntlet-style gloves extend over jacket cuffs, providing superior weather protection and preventing wind or rain from entering at the wrist. These are preferred for touring, adventure riding, and cold-weather use. Consider your primary riding discipline: sport and urban riders typically choose short cuffs, while adventure and touring riders benefit from gauntlet coverage. Many riders own both styles for different conditions.
