Held Titan Evo: The Gloves that Michael Dunlop wears

As Held's biggest UK retrailer we're very proud that Michael Dunlop will be wearing Held Titan Evo Gloves this season, and look forward to the TT, as always!

It's fitting that, after winning 'Best gloves' for the tenth consecutive year in the Motorrad Magazine awards (The World's biggest selling bike mag) that arguably the best road racer on the planet, Michael Dunlop, has chosen to wear Held motorcycle gloves this season. The Titan Gloves are not newcomers to TT success- Gary Johnson wore them in 2014 during his TT winning ride!

Michael's Gloves, The Held Titan Evo, £250

Held Titan Evo Motorcycle Gloves

These gloves are all about safety for racers- and road riders: There's heaps of protection, dare we say these may be the most protective motorcycle gloves ever. There's a new titanium knuckle, new and improved from the old Titan, new wrist slider with titanium insert, carbon and gel protectors on sides of hand! There is also DuPont Kevlar at the necessary zones including the finger bridge which is designed to stop your fingers separating and breaking in the event of a slide. If you were going to slide, you'd want to be wearing Titan Evo's! The best just got better.

Perfect Summer gloves- as used by RideWithUsTours

Route 66, The Alps, Bavaria, The Black Forest.. some of the great places RideWithUsTours have the pleasure of frequenting, helping many bikers fulfill their dreams. I for one fancy Route 66.. but enough of that! ;)

We're very pleased to supply the good people of RideWithUsTours with their motorcycling gear- and the THOUSANDS of miles they cover mean two things- They need gear that works and lasts well, and we get some superb feedback as to how it's performed. With the differing climates they encounter there probably is no better real-world testing!

Today we want to highlight a pair of their favourite gloves- the Held 'Rodney'. 

The Held 'Rodney' short motorcycle gloves- £74.99

What does £75 buy? Probably the perfect leather summer glove! Held make an excellent fabric-based version (the 'Air Stream II') and these summer gloves are essentially the leather 'brother model'. All you really need to know is that most summer gloves are fine, until you have a spill. If you were ever to have a mishap in vented motorcycle gloves make sure it is this model or the Held Airstream II.

The Held 'Rodney' short motorcycle gloves-available in 'tan' too

Technical information 

• Colourfast goat skin upper
• Colourfast Kangaroo palm
• Perforated leather for airflow
• CoolMax inner lining
• Foam-backed protective knuckle pad and Superfabric side of hand reinforcements
