What We Wear: The Held Air N' Dry Gore-Tex Motorcycle Gloves

I've had these Held Air N Dry motorcycle gloves almost three years now and they're still going strong. What I love about them is that they take away a decision I have to make before riding. 'What's the weather going to be like later, which gloves should I use?'.

How? They're dual chambered gloves, one side of the 'tab' you slip your hand into the breezy, vented chamber. Perfect for warmer days, like this morning. If it gets a bit nippy, or indeed starts to rain, move the 'tab' over and slip your hand into the Gore-Tex warmer and fully waterproof chamber! Brilliant!

The Tour Guide motorcycle gloves from Held are a glove designed for tourers and technical riders. Made from highly abrasion-resistant kangaroo leather they will protect you from the elements as well as the road. They are colourfast, sweat-proof and are held together with a special type of seam, a step seam, which means there are no pressure points inside the glove to cause you discomfort on your long rides. Perforated leather at the palms and fingers create airflow and Velcro adjustment at the cuff and wrist allow you to make sure they won't fall off but aren't restricting your movement.

The safety you want from touring gloves is all here in the Held Tour Guide with hard plastic knuckle impact protection covered with more of the abrasion resistant leather, specially designed Suprotect shock-absorbing foam on the ball of the thumb and back of the hand, and the edge of the hand has SuperFabric reinforcements.
