The SP X Z WP motorcycle gloves are the mid-season version of the well-known SP X motorcycle gloves, available in multiple variants and configurations. They blend Alpinestars’ signature sporty performance with full waterproofing. These short-cuff motorcycle gloves strike a refined balance between comfort, precise fit, and solid protection.
Admittedly, the short cuff might seem counterintuitive for motorcycle gloves targeting spring, autumn, and even mild winter use. But ‘cold’ means different things to different riders, and with modern heated grips and improved jacket cuffs, there’s a real advantage to compact, snug-fitting short motorcycle gloves that focus on waterproof performance.
A fully integrated waterproof membrane ensures reliable weather protection, while the dual-layer stretch construction provides a lightweight feel and precise fit. The leather palm increases wear-resistance and offers excellent grip.
The dual-density SPX TPU knuckle protector is CE Level 1 KP-certified and carefully designed for maximum impact protection and flexibility. Its lateral curve follows the hand’s natural shape, and the 3D ergonomic inner surface ensures superior comfort. Thanks to its asymmetric cut and targeted freedom around the index and middle fingers, rider control remains nearly perfect, with no distracting pressure points, especially during knee downs.
The ring-to-little-finger bridge, inspired by racing gloves, has been refined for street use. It prevents finger separation in a crash, reducing injury risk. A wrap-around reinforcement along the outer palm and pinky adds toughness and protection at key impact zones.
Strategically placed reinforcements and foam padding on the palm, backhand, and sides enhance both grip and protection against scrapes, knocks, and impacts. A palm slider further improves wear and impact resistance.
The soft and relatively short neoprene cuff offers superior comfort, while a closure with silicone print allows quick tightening or loosening, even with cold or damp hands. Touchscreen-compatible fingertips let you operate your devices effortlessly without removing the motorcycle gloves.
These motorbike gloves are fully CE-certified to Level 1 KP.
